Same here.

If I somehow saw the defender clearly in the play and was confident in the amount of contact (and certain that there was no "embellishing" by the defender), I could see myself making a call (player control). The T here does seem to be in a position where he could close down and make the call without it looking like the call came from too far out of the play.

But from the T position, I'm not sure I'd be focusing on the off-the ball defender to the point where I feel 100% certain in the amount of contact. In that case, I'm not going to guess at a block/charge just because I see a defender go to the floor. I'm likely to trust that my partners passed for a reason.
