Rule change
7-5-11 "Contact by a defender obviously away from the direction of the pass is NOT considered pass interference"
Part I test question:
#2 Pass interference can NOT occur when the pass is clearly thrown away from the spot of the potential foul.
Answer = C
Seems that the rule book & case book are referring to defensive pass interfernce. Is anyone going to continue to call pass interference on A1 if the pass is not thrown in A1 direction? Seems to me that I could get real creative with my offense if I design some pass plays to free up a receiver and if I got caught it was just going to cost me 10yd vs 15yd and loss of down.
Does the new rule apply to offensive and defensive pass interference?
