I think what happened is that Philadelphia had Edwin Chow #70 on defense and he tried to hold a offense player from your team so your team declined the holding call.

here is that player in question = http://cust9.myfootballnow.com/player/1458
here is that team in question = http://cust9.myfootballnow.com/team/25

Philly was the team with the ball, Chow (#70) is clearly at RG and makes the hold. This should have gone back and a TD not awarded.
Cost us the game IMO. Funny , when stuff like this happens it mostly happens against cpu teams.

I have no idea why that was declined, I'll investigate it.

BTW, don't worry about any kind of conspiracy theory about the AI teams ... the game engine doesn't know the difference once the game has started and the game plans are loaded.

Cheers JDB.

Ha ha, I wasn't suggesting there was a conspiracy, but it was odd that it happened in another game, long time ago.
