I'd have to have more contact on this play to have an illegal screen. The contact, IMO, is marginal at best.

That was my opinion at first also, but though the contact was marginal it did affect the play.

Agreed.

If I ever call this a foul, this is a least amount of contact I've judged to be a foul.

Not much contact but I've watched it a few times and the more I watch the more I like the call.

Now I'm thinking about the calls I've let go on similar plays and wondering if I've put the defense at a undeserved disadvantage.

Nice post, gets us thinking, which is what this board is supposed to do.
