I would not beat myself up over it.

Joel,
I could easily live with a safe call without time being called. Why reward the defense for clumsiness?
The ball would be "dead" in front of me, when I recognized the defenders momentum forcing the arm off, or when I recognized the injury. Easy "Safe" for me.
