OK, Here's the situation:
A has the ball, 2nd and 25, at their own 10 yard line. A12 drops back to pass and throws to A88 at the 25. While the ball is in the air and before it arrives, B34 commits defensive pass interference which is flagged by the Back Judge. B44 then intercepts the pass, and returns it to the end zone. At the 2 yard line, during the return, A54 commits a block in the back which is flagged by the Head Linesman.
What penalties/options, etc. do you give to both captains? Please cite rules, etc.

Simple double foul and replay the down, 10-2-1. B did not get the ball with clean hands.
No need to consult B captains as they have no options unless A declines B's foul, which you will not let them do. Tell A's captain, "unless you want them to get the ball, you will accept their penalty, which teamed with your penalty will cause us to replay the down."
