I had a situation that happened to a crew in our association and am confused on the enforcement and would like some help ffrom the gallery.
Team A is trailing by 5 points with :02 to go in the fourth quarter. They have the ball on B's 20 yard line and throw a pass to A1 as time expires. He cathches the ball on the 6 yard line and as he is being tackled, around the 5 yard line, he "fumbles" the ball into the end zone. His teammate A2 falls on the ball in the end zone.
Please explain to me B's options and what you would call in this situation. I appreciate your help.

I assume you can have a flag for Ill forward pass, otherwise TD for A.
Pretty basic enforcement if you ruled ill forward pass. You have 5 yard penalty from the spot of the pass and LOD. They will take penalty, otherwise TD for A.
If 4th down, then B ball at 10 yardline for an untimed down.
If not 4th down, untimed down for A at the 10 yardline.
Similar play in 2003 casebook 7.5.2d (my 04 casebook in crewmates car)
