On 4th and Goal, down by 5 points, San Francisco went for the win on a Colin Kaepernick attempted pass. While his pass was ultimately incomplete, there is unquestionably a ton of controversy on the call due to what appears to be an obvious holding penalty on Michael Crabtree by Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith. What are your thoughts on the call? Putting your personal bias aside, would you make the hold call there with the game on the line?
Blake Dorfman: Throwing the flag on that play would have basically decided the outcome of the Super Bowl based on a brief jersey grab that, quite honestly, did not prevent Crabtree from catching the ball. Imagine the play was completely clean… Does he make the catch? Probably not. From someone who dislikes both teams, I say there would be much more controversy and outrage right now if the flag was thrown.
Rohit Ghosh: Forget that call, SF deserved to lose. Ngata was out, 4th and goal, and they passed it 3 plays in a row? Run the damn thing in! Abou...
