One of the plays in the Redding guide says this exact play should be treated as a horse collar.

The player faking the running play is afforded the same protection as the actual runner.


My question is this... we've been told that the horse collar can only be called in the field of play...

For example, a player tackled by horse collar who lands in the endzone, no horse collar can be called. It's the same situation for a runner going out of bounds and is taken down by horse collar. The interpretation for this came straight from Referee magazine.

Any comments?
