Not an enforcement issue, but we had a cool one in which I was very proud of my crew for holding their whistles. We had a runner being tackled in the open field on about the B-25 yardline when he totally landed on the guy tackling him, rolled over right on his feet and ran in for the TD! No complaining by the defensive coaches or players and the offensive coaches were obviously pleased. I saw it way downfield and from my view was wondering why no-one blew the whistle. After the try I asked my BJ what exactly happened, he told me and I told them once again how awesome they were! It made us look really good on a call which easily could have been blown dead. My crew has a tremendous relationship which adds to my joy in officiating.
