It seems to me that I very rarely see Holding called on an Offensive Lineman. I can't quantify it, but it's the sort of thing in a real game you expect to see a few times a game.September 10, 2011 at 12:30AM View BBCode
Actually, according to the gode at least, OL gets twice as many holding penalties as DL. I'll see if I can figure out a way to query it and get stats on it.September 10, 2011 at 12:38AM View BBCode
Here is the distribution of holding calls in Gamma. Note that this is by native position, not on-field position (I have no way to determine that without some serious digging), which explains all the linebackers.September 10, 2011 at 12:49AM View BBCode
Not knowing what the distribution in the NFL is, I can only hazard guesses.September 10, 2011 at 01:42AM View BBCode
I've been trying to find data as well. And I know there are sites that HAVE the data but I have no meaningful way to query it (that data always seems to be used to try to show penalty differences between officiating teams so it's not organized in a way that is useful to me.)Pages: 1
