Here is my pet peve for this play. An upright runner is being stopped and the covering official marks the spot but doesn't blow his whistle because he's waiting to see what happens. If the runner breaks free, they give up the spot and let the play go - if the runner is pushed back, they give him the spot they had.
To me, that's giving the runner too many advantages. If he's stopped, blow it dead and give him his progress. If he's not, let the play go and then, when his progress really is stopped, then pick that spot for the forward progress.
