cmat - that rule is for when a ball is motionless for much longer than illustrated in this play.
Bulldog, I see your point, but don't think that was the intent of this play. Maybe I'm reading more into the sitch than was originally intimated, but I'm seeing this a a situation where R and HL/LJ did not blow the whistle because they DID see the fumble. U did not, and began unpiling people prematurely... hence my desire to treat this as IW.
