Lightbulb No, intentional grounding.

Well you cannot have an intentional grounding call on a backward pass. So this is a fumble and a live ball. And the Referee has this call pretty much all the way. The only way the wings have this call is if the ball was immediately thrown backwards toward their sideline. I had this happen to me last Friday and it was a fumble. The QB tried to throw it away, but got spun around and threw the ball backwards.

Peace
