So, a hold is a hold, unless it's on a play that scores a TD against the Redskins?

I was trying to remember the game this happened in a few years ago! If I remember correctly, Hochuli was demoted our even suspended? Hopefully this crew gets the same treatment. Such BS!

I cannot believe you didn't make up that transcript, Boone. I believe you, I'm just so appalled by it that it HAS to be fake. Good Lord.
So basically, what the officials are saying, is that the defense should ALWAYS hit any offensive player with the ball, after the whistle blows. Because if you don't, there's a possibility he could get up and keep running, and the offense gets to choose whether to take the actual spot, or the touchdown.
Is there any other way to read that? And player safety? Please. You're making it a rule that defense HAS to hit the ball carrier late, to protect their own interests.

NFL admits mistake by official on Panthers’ touchdown
The NFL acknowledged Monday that officials erroneously awarded the Carolina Panthers a first-quarter touchdown during their win Sunday over the Washington Redskins when one of them inadvertently blew his whistle.
The play should have been ruled dead at the Redskins 17-yard line, according to a written statement by the league. The Panthers would have had the option of replaying that down or taking the play as it stood at the 17-yard line.
“By rule, Carolina should have been given a choice of putting the ball in play where [running back DeAngelo] Williams was ruled to have stepped out of bounds–1st-and-10 from the Washington 17 yard-line–or replaying the down–1st-and-10 from the Washington 30,” the league’s written statement said.
The NFL’s statement said “the Panthers were incorrectly awarded a touchdown following an inadvertent whistle.”

To think, some were saying the replacement refs were incompetent!
