A#80 catches the ball at the A 5 yard line and is tackled at A's 10. What foul (if any) and spot of enforcement.
My first question is how can A1 drop back when he had to be 7 yards back. With #80 in the tackle position the numbering exception would have to apply unless there was a 50-79 on the other end of the line.
