Holding occurs before the ball is thrown, it doesn't matter if the ball is even thrown at all, or if it's thrown at a different receiver. Pass interference has to be on a catchable ball. But Mahomes saw the hold and just threw the ball in JuJu's direction to draw attention to the hold.

They agreed to the full no trade clause less than a year ago when they guaranteed him about $30M. One season later and they want to move on (rightfully, they’re limited with him) but it will cost them with the cap to get rid of him.

That’s cause Olsen is an absolute fucking retard in the booth. Every time I hear his voice, I ask myself which athlete asked for more money and didn’t take the role, giving way for Olsen to be on air? The entire time this was being replayed he wouldn’t let Kevin Burkhardt speak, even though Kevin was clearly correct in saying when the hold occurred and not looking at the final 3 seconds of the play. Literally anyone would be better to replace him…or nobody! Kevin could’ve called the Super Bowl by himself last night and nobody would’ve cared Olsen wasn’t there

You're 100% right. For them not to call that all night, and then call it right at that time that handed the chiefs the win is atrocious.

If it was a hold that was on a catchable ball, I get it. But it was a weak ass hold on an uncatchable ball, at a time that they should've let them play

If I'm him, I want to go to TB, NYJ, NO, maybe WAS but I they claim to not be looking for a QB. Somewhere that isn't in a full rebuild and has some talent on offense.

I'd want to stay away from Carolina, Indy, Atlanta. Places that need to blow up the whole team.

Greg Olsen was a solid D- last night. The whole broadcast team was extremely subpar.

It’s wild, we had one of if not the best actual games in the Super Bowl, but we had possibly the worst halftime show and commentator performance in history.

How about when their rules analyst totally botched his analysis on that catch that was overturned on review? He sounded totally incompetent in that moment.
