The problem: It means you had two sets of eyes on two players and one (at best) on the other eight.
That said: Sometimes they happen legitimately in dual coverage areas. Also, it's not bad to have a DW on a train wreck. Non primary official waits a second, then, as he blows his whistle the primary official makes the call after seeing the whole play.
They aren't necessarily bad, but they should be talked about.
"That was a good spot for a DW."
