I tell my guys there is nothing worse than throwing a flag on something that's not there. I don't particularly care what the game situation is at the time. Missed calls can be defended, there is no defense for calling something that's not there.
And last I checked, we're there to officiate a game that ALL the players have prepared for all week. It's not our job to do what we can to get it over with as fast as possible no matter which "string" of players happen to be in. Yeah, inside I may think it's BS the coach that's up by 20 in the 4th qtr is still bombing the ball down the field but that's not going to change how we call the game (other than telling my guys to be even more vigilant about cheap hits).
