Exactly why they hold every play. Cost us a SB. They didn't get away with it this time.

You get called more against outspoken teams with veteran players. Brady and gronk are pretty much always going to get calls in their favor. It's the likeability factor that nobody talks about.

It's like the ravens team of destiny thing during their run where they beat us. Some games are bound for the calls to go one way more than others.

I actually thought the reffing in this game was a lot better than in our game as has been stated. That doesn't mean the refs robbed us though.

Go to the 2:40 mark

The hold occurs at the 2:48 mark, with Romo's narration.

However, Brady has released the ball by this point, so holding is not a factor anymore. It can only be PI.

Since the ball was tipped, that should have negated the PI.

Am I right?

Nah hold occurred before the ball was in the air. Chiefs cheated on pretty much every snap and then cried when they were flagged for it. Hard to feel bad for that. They could have tried not cheating.

This. But it was done to us on both of our last two Super Bowl trips. Kind of pisses me off.
