Holding or not on Willis. What was interesting is that the ref doesnt actually throw the flag until the play is down around the 30. He was already tackled when the dude tosses the flag and if you watch the replay you can see him throwing it as ricky is getting up.
 
Wasn't the runner already beyond the holding to? Was curious. I think the announcers mentioned it critiquing the call

During the game, I thought the flag was thrown when it was because it was for hitting Collins after he slid.

That was the final air coming out of the balloon. Most of it with the punt return, some of it with the PI tip INT, some of it with the INT where the safety had to be thinking "is he really throwing it right to me???" and then that scramble hold.

Yeah that flag was thrown crazy late. Play was over before he pulled out the flag.
 
There were three holding flags thrown in the fourth quarter where the play was already 10-15 yards down field. That official had no clue.
