I will start this by saying that I know eash association does things a little different.
In our association we try to call very little from the lead position and try to let C and T have strong games and first crack. That being said, L should (in my assoc.) have secondary defender. My wonder is if he was holding his whistle to let C get the call and then just "froze" when C didn't call anything. Either way, something should have been called there and IMPO it should have been the C that made sure. Personally I have been taught that a strong C makes or breaks a crew and in this instance they might have broke it. As C you need to be agressive and "go after" calls as opposed to L where you "wait" for calls. Again, just how I was "raised" to do it.
