A blocked field goal that hits the cross bar - is the ball live?

[Tryadllc]

Can a drop kick only be eligible if taken from the line of scrimmage or can a drop kick be attempted on a broken live play?

It can be taken at any time on a play from scrimmage, from on or behind the line of scrimmage, provided the opposing team has not had possession of the ball during that down. Anything else you can imagine (within the bounds of still playing a football game) may have happened during the down, and the kick is still legal and can still score.

So, for example, team A place kicks in a normal field goal manner. The ball is partially blocked, bounces 5 yards beyond the line of scrimmage, then bounces back behind the line without further touching by players of team A, and is picked up and drop-kicked by a player of team A there. That's OK, and it can score the goal.

Ball hitting the cross bar is like the ball going out of bounds. Play is over at that point.

It can still score the goal if it (eventually) goes over the bar without hitting the ground. Otherwise it's dead.
