This is a PC Call any day in my book....Philosophically calling this a PC call also reduces rough play. By calling this a Block your telling the offensive players that you will allow that continued play and continue to reward the offense forcing its self in on plays...

I agree.
It seems many officials are looking at the defense and looking for a reason to put a foul on the defender -- in actuality, there are times when we should say "good enough" and send it the other way.
