Does Holliday's TD non-review justify Schwartz's challenge?

I searched because I didn't think I was the first to notice, but I didn't find anything...but does anyone else think that the non-review that happened a couple weeks back with Trindon's punt return justifies Schwartz's challenge flag?
While he obviously wasn't thinking of this play when he threw it, the fact remains that the NFL's "every play is reviewed" rule is BS, since an obvious non-TD wasn't even reviewed. So how can any coach know for sure that a play WILL be reviewed, especially when the shitty refs already screwed up the call so atrociously to begin with?
I'm glad the Competitions Committee is already looking into it, because I think that since the NFL has already provided an instance in which they didn't review a TD/turnover, there's no way they can expect coaches to assume comfortably that all questionable calls will be reviewed and thus refrain from throwing the flag in instances like this. Thoughts?

It's an LSU thing.

The whole review system is a absolute sham. The whole point of instant replay is to get the call right! The fact that these little formalities and gray areas exist is absolutely ridiculous and embarrassing for the NFL. The rules need to be revamped, yet again, this offseason.

No BUT....that was a terrible call by the auto reviewers. Holiday pitched it WAYYYYYY before scoring.

Don't cry. They missed that one too.
Or are you missing the Toke Badger?

that's his point
Hollidays score was apparently "not reviewable" because if the other coach wanted to challenge it he would have gotten penalized and wouldn't have been allowed to review anyway
the rule is a joke and I can't believe the NFL let such a shitty rule be in place
