The rule for intentional grounding mentions that the pass has to land beyond the NZ, not cross it. This allows him to get rid of the ball by throwing it OOB's, just as long as it lands somewhere beyond the NZ. Had the rule read that the pass had to cross the NZ he wouldn't be able to "dump it" OOB's.
