Sorry if this has already been discussed, but why did we not get a first down on the defensive holding call late in the game? It didn't matter, but I thought that was automatic? Guessing it's because Purdy didn't throw the ball, and if so that is dumb and needs to be changed.

Correct. No automatic first down on running plays.
 
Give him a break. A thread two posts up with a vague title like that, hows he to know?
