REPLY: My thoughts precisely. I'm also assuming that the second pass would be an illegal forward pass. It is in NCAA and Stern's article says it's that way for Fed as well. This would mean that (a) should be a safety regardless of acceptance or declination of the penalty.

By the way, he would be correct in NCAA rules. B could take the two points (safety) or could choose to take the ball at the previous spot--just like if it were an incomplete legal forward pass.
