Holding is probably the most aggravating penalty because there's so much holding all the time, even right at the play, that goes uncalled; yet they do call some sometimes and it'll really screw up a drive.  There's really not much rhyme or reason to it as it's basically a 100% subjective thing.

You just have to hope there's no bias, or just bad luck, against your team that day.
I hear what you're saying. Virtually every receiver is holding on a run play, they try and lock their hands under the armpits of the dB and start driving him so it looks like a drive block but you can't see the hold but the defensive player wants to pursue the ball and can't because he's being held and those types of holds are missed

Ah, the ol' Saskie Shuffle!  No one trains their RECs to hold as good as SSK does.
Never go full Rider!
