Not exactly by the book, but if you look at them all this way, you'll at least be consistant. I thought it was a nice, simple way to look at a play that can be confusing for lesser experienced officials.
I guess B1 can take it right in the chest and that contact is never when B1 stepped into A1?
good point. If there is LGP B1 gets there first then the onus is on A1 to avoid the contact etc.,

I see this a lot on the sidelines, B1 is there with just a little room to spare; however, A1 forces the issue and tries to go by, he might hit B1 a little off square and the official calls the block because B1 did not get hit in the chest, but by rule B1 was correct.

Thanks
