Looks like a good candidate for DPI. Defender starts playing the receiver, uses an arm bar and generally does not look to play the ball. Ahhhh life on the wings!

Good defense.  Minimal contact, if any.  Nothing BIG enough there for DPI.

I'm a bit ambivalent on this. The defender isn't playing the ball, obviously, and there is slight cutoff type contact. But, in my opinion the receiver could make a better effort to get to the ball. The angle is not the best, though, to make a good determination on the force of the contact.

I probably personally wouldn't flag this, but would support a flag.

I think this is DPI, the defender is not playing the ball and the receiver is trying to get to it, getting entangled in the process.

This does not qualify as a "train wreck," in my opinion.  If I'm on the field and this play happens in front of me-- no call.  Not nearly enough restriction and advantage.

Looks like a good one to keep the flag in your pocket.  Maybe if receiver made anything close to a real effort to get to the ball that resulted in some real contact then IMO it would be DPI.

It might look like screening, but .... but the defender had position and the ball was thrown inside. Defender would have had every right to keep his path, which was the primary factor in the pass going incomplete.

I have DPI.  I also see that it is 5 man, I think it would have been called with a stationary deep wing on the goal line in 7 man.
