Am I missing something here? Do NFL officials call games tighter than HS level refs? Would it have been reasonable to pass on that call? Or was that call really a call that a normal ref would've made--despite the gravity of the situation?
Our?

I would not have passed and I'm also a HS ref. So, are we even now?

Whether I call a hold on that play has nothing to do with the situation. Two points is two points.
