The holding penalty had nothing to do with a receiver being that wide open at such a crucial point in the game. It felt like my heart stopped and didn't restart until I saw the flag.

I felt like you did. For a moment it was pure agony.
While Matty is right that without the hold, the play doesn't happen, the fact is that we can't always count on holds being called. I've consoled myself with the thought that it was the first game in Haslett's new defense and after film study the players will rectify the problem (as well as the problem on the 4th down play which made the last play possible).
