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.

That was more than hand fighting. The 49ers player had Smith by the shoulder pad.

and never gets called.

The 49er grabbed him by the jersey and drove him out of bounds

It was not pass interference but no question it was holding

They blew it

Why is it when it's something that would benefit the Saints it's -

But when it's something that hurts the Saints, it's -

The problem is an inordinate amount of close calls and judgment calls always go against the Saints and never the opponent. There are stats that bear this out that were posted last week on Saints talk.

Smith almost made a Prothro catch, which when a play call relies on that is stupid.
