No, because I do not officiate one single moment in time. I see the entire play.

We have been down this road with you before.

Peace

If I had to guess, though, I'd say no.

All officials use the Simplified and Illustrated book. If this were in the funny book would it say legal or illegal?

We don't get that book where I live.

Who the hell knows? I can't tell from a still photo if the actual block is to the side or back.

Have a video?

If forced to answer from a still picture, this is what I'd say too.

The S&I book does not use one picture to determine if you have a foul. They usually use several pictures and certainly, you will not find one that says "This is a block in the back."

So that is flawed logic. Also, all officials do not use that book. I know many that never have seen it.

Peace

A block in the back is defined as a block against an opponent when the initial contact is in the opponent's back, INSIDE THE SHOULDERS and below the helmet and above the waist...

If this is initial contact than it is a legal block.

In that moment in time, what would remotely make it a block in the back?

I swear some coaches think any contact not in the front is in the back.

That is my point ITS. Most people don't know what the rule says EVEN some officials.

Argument could be made for IUH given the location of B2's left hand, depending on where it landed.
