OT: Super Bowl Sunday

Wrong as usual. The within 5 yards doesn't matter for a holding call, that is only for pass interference. Smith blatantly held Crabtree. Watch the video...

That occurred long before Crabtree tried to separate himself from Smith.

For some reason Mott is emotionally invested in this and cannot look at it with any perspective. It was blatant, obvious, and changed the end of the game. Saying it shouldn't be called because "most fans" wouldn't like a poorly executed offensive play to "give" them the game (Thing1) is also a bit wrong. It was a poorly executed Defensive play that the player had to grab the other player and break the rules in order to "Defend" against what would have otherwise been a winning TD.

It should have been called. And I actually wanted the Ravens to win the thing. It isn't like I love them or something, but if I were emotionally involved I'd be on Mott's side....
 
Since Mott is on one side, and everyone else is on the other, I'm tempted to say he's probably wrong. It is Mott we're talking about. That said, I'm glad the Ravens won.
