That was quite a hold that somehow got missed. (I'm just saying refs are human and make mistakes, but yeesh).
That's what I mean. **** like that going on for years and it's just how it seems to be.

This play is just the tip of the iceberg.
If you go back and look at the drive charts for the Patriots in close games this year and last you will find that they have never received a subjective penalty (roughing the passer, off or def holding, ill contact, or PI) when the game is on the line.
Charting the 10 close games they were in and over 116 offensive plays late in games not 1 subjective call against the Patriots in 2 years of close games.
The Patriots are 5-5 in these games while being allowed to hold on both offense and defense.
In the same time frame there were many calls against their opponents. Roughing the passer against Cincy, Def Holding negates and Int by Baltimore. PI against the jets and the list goes on.
Just sickening that video evidence like this can't be used to correct these favorable calls.
It is just sickening.
