I personally use the expression in the process of describing a play.
"He dipped his shoulder and took it straight into the defender's chest." But the straight into the chest is the part that really matters. When a player does dip the shoulder, it often means he is committed to his path and helps us to anticipate a play.

(Similar to you, I'm sure) I like to use terms like "displacement" and "verticality" as opposed to "got him with the body".

I love it when a coach asks, "There was contact on that play right?" Of course silly, but since when did that make a situation a foul? Peace

Agreed, but it does make me watch closer and changes the benefit of the doubt.

If you look closely enough, you'll see the offensive player, expecting the pass to go elsewhere, pushing back just the same as he is running away from the defender. He pushed the defender in the direction the ball ultimately went. He just guessed the wrong direction of the throw.
