Holding calls, pass interference calls AND ROUGHING THE PASSER CALLS have ruined NFL football!!
Pass intereference was always tolerable when it was the only thing called excessively. Now however, in any NFL game unless it is an anomaly holding is called every third off 4th play and that’s not hyperbole. It’s disgusting. Holding absolutely determined the outcome last night and it was pathetic.
Yes Dr Tongue!
I propose the removal of offensive holding from the game of football.
It happens on every play and just depends when an official decides to make the call.
All we need is a second, the body can vote and it's done.
Dr Tongue will inform Goodell and the NFL!
That was easy!
I also propose the removal of holding or the equivalent on punt returns. Sometimes there's multiple flags
for holding on punt plays with some of the infractions happening miles from where the
ball is.
Let the boys play football!
How about stopping those "stupid" TD celebration skits too!

How in the blue hell is a TD celebration anything like a holding call? You really should refrain from signing your asanine posts. That way no one can tell whether it’s you or your wife wearing the dunce cap.

It's not like a holding call it was a separate topic.
Another waste of time in a NFL football game!
See separate topic. Unrelated to holding.
If you read the sentence carefully the "too" at the end of the sentence means also/in addition and differentiates the sentence from the rest of the post!

Work on this for a while you'll eventually get it or maybe not when you can join the land of the "dumbas-es." LOL!
The free board. I always said nothing that's Free is worth anything!

Too also denotes a connection to something else as in also so if you’re looking to talk about a separate topic you’d want a conjunction that separates it from the original. Similarly, holding is not so much a waste of time as it is a penalty that has absolutely nothing to do with a nice play but can wipe it out anyway.
I never found it tolerable, I find it highly offensive. The rules are in favor of offense to begin with, the way they are enforced is grossly disgusting against the defense. I found the roughing the passer tolerable enough, but they even took that too far this year.
Strange that you watch football yet you’re intolerant of one the most frequently called penalties. To each their own.
They should just allow PI calls and non calls to be reviewed and over turned in aggregiois situations. Not hard.
When fans, players and coaches all hold their breath on every pass in anticipation of a flag... maybe things are a bit askew.
Pass interference has been reviewable in the CFL for a few years now.
There’s been a few complaints, but it seems to have eliminated some of the really horrible calls.
I also went from watching football Thursday night to Monday night. Now I still watch HS, Pitt and Army, if there is a big college match up and the Steelers. It has been about 3-4 years since I watch a non Steeler NFL regular season game. Hell I end up shutting off playoff games because the horrendous calls. Like Jerry Glanville stated "the over officious jerks" are ruining the game.
