For newer officials...

This is a good play to practice your mechanics on.
A) You have contact by 32 Black (the smaller 1st defender)
B) You have a block by 30 Black
C) You have a player control foul on 23? White

If you had this YouTube moment, how would you want your mechanics to be?

Please, do a better job than this official did of communicating what you have. Think it through all the way, and practice it in a big enough space.

I'm a big proponent of newer officials working their mechanics in the mirror, but also of working through the mechanics of certain plays in the mirror. This is a good one, because there are a few different scenarios to practice. Give it a try.
