I just can't figure out why the national sports media said no holding call because game shouldn't be decided by a penalty, and Galette might not have gotten to Brady anyway.

Yet, this time, the penalty should have been called to give Brady another shot, and it doesn't matter if he might not have been able to catch the ball.


There is consistency in that the game shouldn't be decided by a penalty in either instance.

Weren't saints fans claiming just weeks ago that the Pats get all the calls?


Some were and Karma's a bitch to the Patriots now. My comments weren't about the NFL or refs siding with the Patriots, but the media's reaction, where many contradict themselves 100% in two very similar situations.

See above.

Generally I agree with your comments except when the foul is blatantly obvious and had a good chance of affecting the outcome of the play. Otherwise players would commit some serious fouls in those situations if they are never called.
