Ed,

I agree that your LJ has no business throwing this flag, however, I disagree on your philosphy of having B decline the penalty. The assessment of intentional grounding (a type of illegal foward pass) is 5yds and LOD from the end of the run (spot of the illegal pass). In your play, that would be a gain of seven yards (if not with 1/2 distance range) to B plus they get to go on offense. Seven yards may be all they need to attempt a FG!
