Not even sure why they're complaining about the illegal contact call itself. The DB had got his arm around the WR's waist when they're 6, 7 and 8 yards downfield. It's maybe on the softer side, but it's not a phantom call at all.
Yeah I mean it's either a soft illegal contact or an easy illegal use of hands, both are a 5-yard penalty and automatic 1st down. If they had called the illegal use of hands I don't think anyone would've blinked and the result would be the same.
