1. Description of the Play Situation
Overview of the play: a pass across the middle is intercepted by number three.
Mention of return and potential blindside blocks during the play.
Identification of specific blocks: Number 11 blocks number 4, and number 10 blocks number 24.
2. Understanding Blindside Blocks
Question Raised: Are blindside blocks, by themselves, considered fouls?
3. Differentiation Between Legal and Illegal Blindside Blocks
Not all blindside blocks are fouls by default.
Criteria for illegal blindside blocks:
Did the defender see the block coming?
Was the contact forcible?
Was contact made with an open hand or arms?
Analysis of the specific blocks in question:
Assessment that neither block constituted an illegal blindside block based on the above criteria.
Clarification that technically "blindside" does not automatically mean "illegal."
4. Considerations for Officials on Change of Possession Plays
These types of plays require "reverse mechanics" due to the sudden change in direction.
Challenge for officials: determining coverage responsibilities (who focuses on the runner and who focuses on potential blocks).
Importance of awareness and positioning to properly observe potential fouls.
5. Officiating Best Practices and Mechanics
Necessity for officials to transition their zones of responsibility during returns.
Emphasis on returning to officiating basics:
Focus on point of attack and backside blocks.
Using zone coverage effectively to detect any illegal or unsafe actions during dynamic plays.
