I happen to think this is a terrible interpretation by NHFS.
In #1, I believe this will always be A's ball since the airborne catch and throw (in my book) would never constitute a catch and a change of team possession. If B never threw the ball and came down out of bounds where he immediately lost possession of the ball due to the contact with the ground, I don't have a catch.
#2 I believe this is merely an incomplete pass and the ball belongs to A and it is the next down. BUT, that contradicts NHFS interpretation of #1. Using their logic in #1, there would be a change of team possession after which a backwards pass was thrown which hit the ground which would be a LIVE BALL!!
But of course, what the hell do I know? Just hope you don't ever see this and have to sell it to a coach either way.
