Andy, this is a tough issue. The main thing to keep in mind is to be a good partner. We all miss calls or have bad games plus as BasketballRef mentioned you might think your partner missed the calls but he was on top of the play and maybe actually got them right. If your not sure what to say say nothing. Something you might say if a player or coach confronts you about a partner's call and you feel your partner missed it is "Coach, I didn't have a great look at the play. Ask my partner when he gets over by you and I am sure he will explain it to you." Whatever you do, don't try to explain your partner's calls as you have no idea what your partner was thinking. I have made this mistake before. A coach got on my partner about a no call on a travel play. The coach questioned me and I told him the ball was tipped by the defense. The coach then asked my partner and he told him the ball was not tipped but the player fumbled the ball and therefore could pick it up.
