Then there are three eval groups that are dead wrong. Unless there is a shot in the air, the horn must assuredly does cause the ball to become dead. (NF 6-7-6)

I agree with Tony. And let me add that even if there is a try in progress, the official's whistle still would not make the ball dead if blown after it was apparent that the try would be unsuccessful(you certainly wouldn't want to blow it before then). The ball would already be dead.
From what I have seen, most people do blow the whistle at the end of a quarter, but I don't like it.
