Looks awful when you measure to a spot that is a distance laterally from where the kid was tackled.

I would disagree with this one. If you are close to the first, shout it out to him, but do not come further into the field. place it right at your feet if you believe you have the right spot. Then, bring the chains over to you. You'd be surprised how much deviation there is in 20 yards of running. jmho
