Refs throw flags that are picked up because of uncatchable ball all the time.
The problem here is similar for me to what happen in the Super Bowl with Brady throwing the ball away while in the end zone for a safety.
You should NEVER call a ball uncatchable when it is thrown within yards of a receiver in the end zone.
Just as you should never call a safety when a ball is thrown 10 yards directly beyond a wide receiver. In those parts of the field, safeties and/or uncatchable calls should absolutely never been made.
also, uncatchable is irrelevant when it comes to defensive holding or illegal contact
