A fumbled ball in the field of play could be put into the end zone by a new force by B. B covers, it's a safety.
This play has always been one of my pet peeves in overtime, even though its not likely to happen. If B recovers this ball, while standing, he can try to advance it out of the endzone during regulation time. However if he recovers it in overtime its a safety even if he could physically advance it out of the endzone, since by rule its dead. Have always wanted the rule changed to "the ball being dead when B posesses it in the field of play." Or else use the same rules we do in regulation.
