[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 763613, member: 7261"] Not to be a "stick in the mud"....but a PI in the NFL, when called, assumes that the receiver would have made the catch, by placing the ball at the spot of the interference. You are correct, when it appears that the receiver had no chance to catch the ball, then the penalty is not suppose to be called. A holding call whether its on the line or in the secondary doesn't really assume anything, other than a violation of the rules was committed. Much like the PI call, if it assumed something, it would try to "correct the play" to end the way the referee judged it would probably end without the hold. Why doesn't offensive pass interference result in the ball going to the defense? Had the interference not occured, wouldn't the defense have intercepted it? [/QUOTE]
