Well it is scary how after one game a cornerback was asked about getting three holding penalties. The reporter was clearly expecting a response of something like “we need to clean up the penalties” but instead answered with something like “we’ll that’s pretty good considering I was holding him all game”If these guys keep trying to outsmart everyone (like the aforementioned "14 men" strategy) we just might see the oft-discussed-but-never-seen "palpably unfair act" rule. If that comes in, then the ref can pretty much do anything he darn well pleases.
What would the nfl do if players consistently played this game of chicken thinking “I’ll hold you all game because I know they won’t call it every play”
