Yup. Dems da rules! This was one of Mike's points in another thread on obstruction - you call it when it happens, not when you determine if it had an impact on the play. All kinds of woulda couldas here... if F3 had not tangled with BR, perhaps F3 & F2 would have tangled up trying to field the ball, among many other possibilities.
