So far as the "not giving the defneder time to turn" sounds like either someone BS'ing his way out of quoting the rule or trying to get rid of a coach quickly.

We had a crackback on the first play that required an injury timeout. The receiver FLATTENED the defender and knocked the wind out of him and no less than three officials saw the legal block.
Coach was livid until he saw that the player had the wind knocked out of him, then he apologized to the wing, saying that it must've been legal with that kind of result.
