To me, this is the perfect example of how an official can determine the outcome of a game. The defensive player makes contact, the player that was contacted clearly steps OOB, and the official decides to ignore or purposely make a call late so that neither team can complete the play, including the appropriate penalties involved.

Why wouldn't you want to let the players decide the game, instead of inserting your influence by ignoring what the players have done?
