Is this Legal??
If you go to the 1:30 mark of the video in the link below, you will see a sack by the Patriots on the Bills QB. The sack is the result of two players working in tandem. First, number 91, Jamie Collins, a LB who is standing up along the line and the guy who gets the sack. The other guy is 95, Chandler Jones, who is the one I want to focus on.
95 is down at the snap, basically opposite the left guard. Upon the snap, he drives into the center, but as he is doing so, he grabs the guard and holds on to him, pulling him into the center, and opening a gap for Collins, which the guard can't fill because Jones is holding on to him. You can see the guard flapping his arms after the play saying he was held. First, this seems like it should NOT be legal, but I don't think I've ever seen this called in my life. A defensive lineman "holding" an offensive lineman? So yeah, yeah, another instance of Patriots cheating blah blah blah, but does anyone know is this is actually against the rules? Seems like it ought to be... http://www.patriots.com/video/2015/0...n-week-2-bills |

I bet Knowmo has some real insight about the 90s, since he must be about 15 years old.

Definitely illegal and have seen it called many times. Probably less frequently in recent years.

In today's NFL, if it ain't a tackle, it ain't holding.
