I say you need to read the definition of blocking below the waist. When we discuss football, those are the terms and definitions that we use.

2-3-7
Blocking below the waist IS making initial contact below the waist from the front or side against an opponent other than a runner.

Rochesterref wrote, "No back can EVER block below the waist without a flag." He knows what the definition of blocking below the waist IS.

What you described does not meet 2-3-7, is not BBW, and is not what the discussion is about.

That is why he is correct and you are wrong.

No back can legally ever do what is described in 2-3-7, block below the waist.

Here endeth the lesson.
