Except as in the case pointed out by Rich where the questionable call doesn't involve the first defender, but rather the second one. My opinion, although I'm not very good at it yet, is that the Lead should be especially attentive off-ball as the drive develops so that Lead has all the possible defenders, with the ball just out of the corner of the eye. The pregame includes Trail following the play into the lane, so that Lead is free to watch the defense.
