You shouldn't be saying any of those things.
Do not respond to STATEMENTS. "You're guys are killing us!" does not require a response, unless you give him a stop sign and tell him you're heard enough.
If the coach asks you a question, answer it with
"Coach, I'm not looking at that play. I'm watching this matchup in front of me."
"Coach, that's his call and he didn't think it was a foul."
"I didn't see it coach, you'll have to ask him."
"That wasn't a foul, coach."
If the foul is in your area, call it.
If the FOUL!!! is in your secondary, call it.
If the foul is blocked from your partner's view, call it.
If your partner has the play in his primary and passes on it, you should too.
