The flag did not go up nor was the whistle blown prior to the malicious tackle. Oliver saw the offense and could have shown a straight red. After the challenge the ball went out of play and the whistle was blown. He then looked to the line judge who made the offsides call. You’ll note that in the pictures showing the challenge the flag is still down.

That is the strangest part of all of this. They keep saying that Oliver blew the whistle before the challenge but that is simply not true.
