First of all, the neutral zone does not expand for everyone. 7-5-11b contact by A is immediately made on a B lineman and the contact does not continue beyond the expanded neutral zone. So even if an A lineman is beyond the neutral zone he is down field illegally unless he is blocking a B lineman.
The pass can not cross the neutral zone 7-5-7 (not expanded neutral zone) to eliminate the pass restrictions. So it has to be caught in or behind the neutral zone.
Now that is by rule. In a game if it is that dang close - let it go.
