Uzomah is a decent tight end and hes good for a spot start every now and then, but he's not the guy I foresee being there on every down. That will eventually be Sample.

"Our guys need to be disciplined. Last year in Preseason Week 1, there were 40 offensive holding calls. This year in Preseason Week 1, there were 120 offensive holding calls around the league. "
And in one statement, ZT openly complained more than Marv did about officiating in his entire career. Please, let this be a trend.

Agreed this was, at best, a very ticky tack call even with the right arm close to being outside the pads. I guess I could see how it looked like Uzo was grabbing and locking up the player but I really don't think he was. And of course Steelers players will grab Dunlap by the head, throw him to the ground and still not get called. Sad league we live in these days.

The league is putting and emphasis on holding during the preseason so they are calling every thing that could possibly be a hold.
Hopefully it doesnt go on like this into the regular season because it will kill the entertainment value.

This is a prime example of an over-zealous official just looking to throw a flag. Just let the players play the damn game and call the obvious penalties. Shit gets old year after year.

Sure was ticky tack that is for sure.
Believe this crew was the worst one in the NFL last season as to calling the most ticky tack calls, i could be
wrong but this is what i remember. You are correct, shit gets old.

Vince McMahon has to be smiling after 2 weeks of NFL preseason.
