Very good point jtheump. That is true. In that case you would only have six on the line. That would be the reason to count players on the line. I will be doing just that from now on. Thanks

Get the count of the O from the R/U. They should be signaling if they have 11 (fist or thumbs up) or 10 (usually two hands on the front of the body). As an R, I give the count as early as I can, and hold it until the O reaches the LOS.

Once you have my count, then you can count backs.
