Holding
at least 2-3 times a game

Probably “false start/illegal procedure” on offense. I would say I see that called on each offense 3 times per game.
On defense, it’s a tougher call, but probably “encroachment/offsides”. Maybe 2-3 times on each defense per game.

The lines of play the ball is on offense and choose their battles usually pretty easy penalty to spot it usually an offensive lineman moves before the neutral zone is pretty easy penalty to five times game.

Holding definately, from what I hear, holding can be called almost every play, it happens so often.
I’ve also been seeing pass interference a lot recently.
