In an obvious controversial situation, where 90% of the time tv announcers take the time to talk about officials swallowing their whistles at the end of the game, tells me what I needed to know about the hold. It was bad enough for them to break out of their muscle memory script and acknowledge that the call was the right one. That meant it was really really bad.
Trying to suggest the refs stole the game is ignoring the rest of this last drive and the second half of the game.
