wrong rule
oops!
I should have cited '8-5-2a EXCEPTION' - when B catches a kick between 5 yard line and his goal line, and his original momentum carries him into the endzone, the ball is dead in his teams' possession at the spot where the kick was caught.
FWIW - 8.5.3 sit B states that the ball becomes dead when the kick breaks the plane of R's goal line.
