They showed six, sent four. DB had safety help on his side. With no hold, it's a

very tight window, but possible. The safety would have needed to move over to help which would have made a possible throw to Roberts on the out easier as well, but in no way a given.

However, with how quickly Ropati was manhandled on the block, Retzlaff would have needed to make that decision incredibly quickly. Which he can do, but would have been very hard.

Look at the Ropati block...massive hands to the face that wasn't called there

Thats what I saw as well. I thought he might be going for a sideline fade.

Phillips was cutting to the sideline. No safety help

There was a safety back there, wasn’t there?

about 25 yards away but yes there was technically a single high safety

Bo Schembeckler was a putz. I'm fairly certain he okay'd that dirty late hit that almost took Bosco out of the game.

The hit on Bosco was early in the game and did take him out for awhile.

But it was a late hit that almost took him out of the game.

I would love it if they are called for holding multiple times in the next game.

Exactly. Everyone knows their DBs hold so they can bring pressure. It's a

Nov 11, 7:52am

Someone should do a video compilation of every pass play showing their holding..

I thought it was interesting that Retzlaff mentioned he noticed the hold before

That's good to hear. I didn't catch that. Must of been the post-game euphoria.

He was the primary read on that play. If there is not a hold and Jake delivers

He was looking right at him and Jojo would've been wide open.

He pumped because of it. Phillips was read one or two. Huge impact on the play
