Talking to one of the officials early in the game? Coach McVay was right there also...I was think that he was telling the official about holding or something else the Seattle Oline was doing. Then we see the turn of events later.
The most egregious hold was later in the game, the right tackle on Samson Ebukam. The right tackle had Samson bent backwards...no call.
It got me wondering if our Oline is doing any outlandish holding...I haven't seen it has anyone else?

It's pretty clear that the officials are not missing many of these calls, but that they are simply not calling them. The coaches should
send film to the NFL office and request clear clarification.
I would be willing to bet the league has instructed the officials to have a blurry eye for these infractions. The officials aren't going to do that on their own, so to me it won't do any good to send the league film.
It is like the roughing the passer....players had to quickly learn how to compensate, the holding is the same thing. Maybe as a defensive player you will have to grab the fingers of the olineman and break them....something extreme....

One line on this is that they are not going to call holding every play on teams playing Donald.
The amazing thing is, he still makes plays anyway.
Double teamed more than anyone else in the game, held on virtually every play, yet he also leads the league in both sacks and pressures.
