I have no idea why this thread was in the testing forum, so I moved it here.

Knee to the face doesn't take much to displace a defender. The defender is allowed to move backward to maintain LGP. IMHO, there's no reason to require the defender to take the full brunt of contact on a play like this to call PC.

Agreed, but the problem is, when the defender is still moving back so quickly it gets hard to tell whether he displaced himself or not. Normally, if I can't tell, I'm going to no-call the play.

Definitely not a block, IMO.

I have a block.

I'm not 100% but I think the shooter was slipping by the defender and the defender drifted towards the endline (not directly away from the shooter) so he'd stay in the shooter's path after the shooter was airborne.

I'd like to see the endline view, however, for a much better view.

Must have been practicing his embedding skills.
