[Parsons] (on missed holding calls) It’s an offensive league!! It would be boring for their viewership if they called 10 holdings!! (twitter.com)

Sacks are entertaining. Watching your team being held over and over with no calls is not. Especially with the specter of games being fixed.

They tried that and it didn’t work, but that doesn’t mean nothing with work. If they pull the players doing it, it will stop. Imagine having to ride it out with backups.

Just look at the lower incidence of DPI in the NFL vs. NCAA. It’s a spot foul in the NFL vs 15 yards in cfb. And unsurprisingly, there’s more DPI in cfb. If the holding penalty was more severe, as well as being called as it’s seen, it would happen less. Even making it 15 yards instead of 10 would help.
