A lot of people think that these calls should not be made on the defense or seem to be surprised when they happen.
Not sure there is a philsophy honestly other then most do not look at these fouls on offensive players. I have even called a couple of facemasks on a runner when they clearly grabbed the facemask only to get grief. I think officials either do not look for this or they do not have the heart to make a call even if the foul is mildly obvious to their eyes. And it does not help many of these are not going to easily show up on tape either.
Peace
