You'd like to think that you should only get flagged if it affects the play but that is a slippery slope too.

So many moving parts moving so fast, different officials calling things differently.  This is one area where they'll probably never be able to make it foolproof.

What if they made holding legal on punt returns and kick returns? Aside from a horse collar hold or whatever, it would be safer and also it would make special teams interesting again.
