A2's pass is flagged for an offside pass. Another flag is thrown for the Objectionable Conduct on A2. When A2 threw the offside pass (which is subject to penalty), he had gained first down yardage. A will keep 1D, but 10 yards back (for the OC) from the B36: A 1D/10 @ B46.

B1 catches the ball at the A30 and runs to the A 1/2 where he fumbles the ball over the endline.

A1's handoff was legal, and A5 gained yards. A5's offside pass (subject to penalty) is flagged at the A26. B1 has intercepted the ball and his fumble results in a dead ball. B will be deciding where A gets the ball by it's acceptance or declining of the A offside pass. Accepting: A 1D/10 @ A26. Declining: A 1D/10 @ A20.
B should decline the offside pass to create the fumbled-through-the-endzone situation.
