Was it defensive holding?

I think we can all agree that it was a legit call, even Bradberry said the call was legit, and at the same time hate to see a game end that way.

If that was Digg's getting called for a hold and basically losing the SB off a penalty............yeah, that would hurt if I am being totally honest, even if its a legit call, would still hurt to lose like that.

How can it be a chit call if the player himself admits after the game he grabbed the jersey?

Bradberry said he grabbed the WR and hoped the ref would just let it go.

So the ref should just not call a penalty because its the SB, even if the player who is flagged says it was a legit call?
that happens on every play , come on now.
Just about every play! No way that should have been called. He barely restricted his movement and that ball was way over thrown.

If Philly didn’t want to lose… they could have just stopped the KC offense on at least one second half drive. Instead they let KC score every time they got a possession in the second half. Every time.

Hurts forcing a fumble on himself might’ve helped them win too.

They’re Philly fans so they’re going to throw a fit… but they blew their own chances. Not the refs.

You know Philly fans hate, hate, hated to see Bradbury admitting that it was a foul.

It's one of them plays the refs uses for a make up call to compensate for the bad call earlier.

It could go either way.

Exactly..................and its not just Philly fans, but some of our fans as well that are in the "ref conspiracy camp" on this site hated to see Bradberry admitting it was legit call.

Here's what people are missing. We have the luxury of slow motion and multiple angles. But what the ref in the endzone sees is Bradberry's right arm crossing in front of the WR. To the ref, it looks like Bradberry held him up a second. The ref can't tell what that arm is doing. It looks like it's impeding his progress. Blame Bradberry, not the ref. If you're not going to actually hold him, don't make it look like you are.

Haha, yep.

“It wasn’t a hold!”

*Picture posted of Bradbury pulling JuJu’s jersey:*

“Those kind of hold’s happen every play!”

*Bradbury admits to media that he held:*

“What does he know!”

:laugh:

1. The NFL has gaslit some fans into thinking it wasn't a flag. It seems a very American thing to want some penalties not called if it's late in the game. Don't blame the refs for ruining the ending. Blame the player who committed the infraction. How anyone can say that isn't a flag is beyond me.
2. If you are putting effort in to being objective about Philadelphia you are doing the Dallas Cowboy Fan thing wrong.
3. Enjoy their pain. World Series MLS Cup Superbowl. 0/3 Just about broke that city.
4. It was a catch fumble.
5. Stop letting Tackles jump early. It's obvious and it's ridiculous. A D-lineman has a ball hair cross the neutral zone after a strong wind and he is penalized.
6. That slimey organization had pretty much everything go their way this season.
7. ****Nick Sirianni.

If it were Dallas, and they didn't call that foul, you would blame Dak for the loss. It was the right call. Oline holding is on every play, but it's still called.

Somehow Olsen says Eagle OLiinmen getting out of his stance pre snap is legal ? ( Johnson )

As to the hold Bradberry owned up to it said it was .

Hurts lost a 7 point fumble which was worst , Eagles up 14-7 could have gone up 2 scores. Those turnovers Dak , eliminate them .
