More Block/PC plays from CA...3 of them

[twocentsworth]

1) Charge
2) Charge
3) Charge

IMHO, it's no wonder that the only play that had a whistle is when the drive occurred on Leads' side. It's not only easier to officiate when the Play is coming towards you...but it takes the guess-work out of who should have a whistle.

Lesson: Lead...GET OVER TO BALL-SIDE TO OFFICIATE!

...!

On the play #2 there is definitely no offensive foul.

Agreed...the defender almost flops in a way because the offensive player skirts around him. Not that I would call a flop...just saying

I agree. Defender crumpled too easily from essentially a brush by.

Agree that #2 is a no-call.

Further evidence: watch the offensive player who is jumping to his right (rather that to and through the defender).

1. PC
2. Defenders feet are so wide I may have had a block
3. PC

Are you sure that the contact wasn't after the pass, and thus, a team control foul? I will admit that it was close, but take a closer look.

I have no clue how you see (2) as a charge. The guy is already flopping when the driving player reaches him -- the contact, if any, is incidental.

And there's no way to know if the L in (1) had time to get ballside as the video started too late. I did go back and look at this a few times myself as I'd want to be over there if I had a chance -- I don't want a C taking this drive if I can get it as the L.
