Chuck, that's exactly what I meant. We did pre-game and our crew chief said the Trail should have first crack. He also said that contact by the primary defender should be the T's call, but if play is made by a help defender, then the L could get that call. After it actually happened in the game, there was some disagreement between some of the guys (we were actually five guys rotating on and off).

Would it be fair to say that the lead needs to be patient in that situation, only make the call if the T passes up on it?

I agree with the way you pregamed it, the L could take it if the contact involves the secondary defender, especially if he slides over from out of the trees. Of course on any double whistle no prelim & make eye contact before a call is made.
