DonÂ’t let statements about the flag being thrown late for the OPI in the SB confuse you. The BJ reacted just as he has been trained. He saw the foul. He reviewed the play in his mind. He reacted to what he saw and got it correct.
The issue is the time it took for the flag to come out of his pocket, verses when the play ended. Generally on plays like this the flag is always going to hit the ground after the play is dead.
If you have pass interference, you should take about 1 second to review the play in your mind before you throw the flag. DonÂ’t wait until the play is over, after the receiver catches the pass and runs 30 yards, to throw a flag for PI. That is really a late flag.
