But using the hypothetical play in the first post, tell me which part of 8-2-1-b has not been satisfied:

The forward pass isn't in the EZ, the player is. The forward pass is at the two. So none of it has been met other than the player catching the ball. It doesn't read "a player in the opponent's EZ catches a forward pass".
