That isn't coaching....

Coaching is telling an end in the first quarter ( who is obviously supposed to be off the line, and isn't ) to get back because he's covering up his tight end.
No, but "don't fire off," or "don't hit him" would be.
Also, some would say that the "coaching" example you just gave is a perfect example of "preventive officiating."
In both situations you are trying to keep a player from committing a foul.
