- This high school football officials training tape goes over the basic mechanics of football referees. In this training tape the fundamentals of positional mechanics and keys are discussed. This football officials training tape also focuses on offensive & defensive pass interference, kickoff & punt mechanics, blindside blocks, penalty enforcement, defensive holding, and ineligibles downfield. The plays used in this video come from the WPIAL (District 7) in Western Pennsylvania and use NFHS mechanics and rules.
21:37 the lineman peeling back for the blindside block; I believe the linesman got it. I think the 3rd replay the film goes far enough to show him chunk a flag that direction👍🏽 And thanks for posting these, I wait to see them each week!!
Thanks for the note. I do not keep track of who works the games and the officials who worked the games know who did and didn't throw a flag. These are purely for training purposes and not to point out issues with particular crews or people.
Great stuff, really appreciate the extensive breakdown! For the potential BSB 20:50, a way I like to think of it is: the blocker's arms are like the suspension on an old car. If the car bottoms out going over a bump, sure the suspension might have been engaged, but the force was transferred directly from the body of the car (helmet/shoulder of the blocker) to the ground (player being blocked). If the suspension gives, but takes most of the force of the bump, we're fine, no harm done.
Thank you for watching. I've never heard that analogy, and if it works for you it is a great way to look at BSB.
Thank you Brian, great stuff as the season starts
Thank you for watching.
Play #2, (7:00 -ish) that LT is also off the LOS. He's almost even with the FB. Could have had Illegal Formation also.
I saw 5 in the backfield there too. Could’ve been 3 different flags on the O, Yikes!
This is a terrible angle to tell. The camera angle being in front gives an appearance that the tackle is further away than he is. I'll give the benefit of the doubt to the HL here.
To make this call we would have to see a shot right down the LOS. I will give the wing official the benefit of the doubt on this one that the formation was legal.
Although we already had an ineligible down field, at the least the wing or TE on the left side was either in the backfield (illegal formation) or he was on the line and would have been another ineligible down field.
At 20:10 in the film, the deep wing has to be focused on the tackle, sideline, and potential fumble. The opposite deep wing or the near LOS should pick up this BSB. I do not think the near deep wing can be expected to get a BSB and miss a potential fumble. It should be a foul but others need to see it.
If the deep wing is further back he/she can see the tackle and the block. That is why I mentioned about not being so close to the action.
@@WPIALFootballOfficials Just one person’s opinion here but I think expecting an official to see a threatened sideline, judge a legal tackle, get the progress spot, and rule on a potential down/fumble and still expect that official to see a BSB two or three yards away from your focus is asking too much. Just my simple opinion. Maybe I’m wrong.
At 14:46, it looks like the defender (white) is making a play for the ball with his left hand, not the offense (red). Red receiver continues to drive forward. This looks like OPI to me, if anything. Not DPI as mentioned in the video. Curious if I am missing something.
Thanks Brian for these videos, love watching.
He is making a play but he uses his hand as leverage on the WR shoulder not allowing the WR to jump. That’s how I see it. The film isn’t the best so I can also understand your point of view.
I don’t think that is OPI because the ball wasn’t in the air nor passed the line of scrimmage. Maybe I’m wrong. Am I? Thanks
Thank you so much for posting these each week and each year! I am a newer official who has learned a bunch from your videos!
I have a question about the blindside block @20:44.
The definition of a blindside block established by the committee is “a block against an opponent other than the runner, who does not see the blocker approaching,” and now results in a 15-yard penalty.
The committee also states that the blindside block “involves contact by a blocker against an opponent who, because of physical positioning and focus of concentration, is vulnerable to injury. Unless initiated with open hands, it is a foul for excessive and unnecessary contact when the block is forceful and outside of the free-blocking zone.”
Given the above information, I do feel this action by the blocker would warrant a blindside block so long as the defender did not see the blocker approaching. Thoughts?
Thank you!
Knowing the rules is great, however, knowing how the apply the rules makes an average officials great. We all strive for consistency and I do not think we could say with 100% certain that the defender did not see it coming especially with the force of the hit in his breastplate. I think it is in our best interest to treat that type of block as legal.
@@WPIALFootballOfficials Gotcha, and yes I agree that we can't know whether the defender saw the blocker coming so I see your reasoning. Thanks!
