Not to try to split hairs because I've seen the play you're talking about and yeah its BS, but I would wager illegal blocks and to a great degree holding happens on every play. Its just a matter of whether or not players get caught. I do however think its quite ridiculous when blatant penalties get the no call.

Happened in the Giants game this past weekend, I don't know if anyone saw it here but Tim Carter was under cut the receiver in a diving motion to catch the ball and the defender was falling backwards, and as he did grabbed onto Carter's arm and started to pull it as he fell. Carter dropped the pass as a result. The referee was standing 10 yards away at a perfect angle to see the penalty...no flag. Such bullshit.
