The whistle is just an official's way of saying 'I have seen a dead ball'. The ball may have been dead by rule for several seconds before any whistle sounded if none of the covering officials actually see the ball become dead. Sounding a whistle when you do not see a dead ball is just asking for IW trouble. My Sig says it for me.
