3rd and 5 from A's 40.
A1 sweeps around the side on an option. He runs past the line of scrimmage to A's 45, where he tries to pitch to A2...
BUT the pitch is forward, and RB-A2 drops it. The ball hits the ground, A2 picks it up on the hop, and continues to run downfield where he is tackled at B's 45 yard line.
Offside pass (subject to penalty). And a live ball.

B will require A to scrimmage from the A-45, with a first down due to yards gained.
