Because holding is the most obnoxious penalty in football.
Huge play just happened? nervously waiting 10 seconds to see if a holding call is coming
10 yard penalty on first down? Drive is over. I remember reading that TDs were scored less than 5% of the time on drives where holding is called.
We would get way more Steelers-Browns games if holding was called as often as it should. Different strokes for different folks, but I don’t want to watch 9-6 shithousery every week
