Still haven’t gotten an explanation on that one

NFL just praying that kind of goes away and doesn’t get any press

They said that because it’s a punt, the receiver is not a receiver so PI rules do not apply

Idk. I understand it not being dpi being that it was a punting situation but it's still a penalty to hold the gunner.

Technically it was holding, but the reality is that hand fighting and that kind of contact occurs on every punt play and never gets called.

Was still a stupid play call by CSP.

Fake punt on 4th and 13 or something like that.

You're not allowed to call penalties on a fake punt. Anything goes. That's what the NFL said.

I think even if holding was called it would have been a 10 yard penalty to back the 49ers up. Not a 1st down for the Saints.
