Ummm...you might wanna take another good look at that video. "Chasing down"?
He couldna caught a turtle at the speed he was moving. He was barely shuffling his feet.
How fast you are running or how nonathletic you are has no bearing on the rules. You are either involved in the play or "clearly out of the play." There is no middle ground.

Actually I disagree. (But also admit I could be wrong...too many "in the judgement of the referee calls)
There is leeway with the unnecessary roughness. While playing out tailback broke a long play. Following a good 20 yards back of the play I spotted an opposing defensive player trailing the play. No way he could have caught our tailback, but I thought..."What the heck.", so I peeled off and woke him up. (Thinking back on it, it reminds me of the Murray play) A referee spotted it and came over to me and told me if he saw me do something like that again he would call it. (I was shocked he didn't call it that time....he should have.)
