b) A1 is looking at the passer and runs into B2 who fends off A1 with his hands as B2 braces for the contact.
c) A1 is crossing on his pattern, B2 clearly moves toward A1 and contacts A1 from the side... A1 may or may not be looking at the QB.

In all cases, a pass is thrown towards A1... all contact happened prior to the
pass being thrown.

In a) and b), I'd probably have nothing.... but since I don't have the video
I'll leave myself an out.

Good discussion since I got last posted 2 nts ago. Didn't get much done yesterday on the boards as I got home from school, ran a few miles, showered and headed to our game. Hope those of you that worked last night had a great game. Ours was awesome!

I'd agree with most of the responses to questions. The key to the run/pass is the QB and you need to get a peek at him after the contact if possible. Often you can tell what is happening with him periphially as you continue to watch your receiver.
In the above post, I'd probably have OPI in (A), nothing in (B) cuz A1 is looking at the QB and B didn't initiate the contact, and DPI in (C) cuz team B moved to and initiated the contact.
