Yep
I concur. If the pass had been launched immediately after the contact and I felt the receiver pushed off, I might have seen it as OPI.

Are we talking about the contact at the 0:02 mark, at the 20 yard line?

If so, then I think this contact is nothing.

No. It looked like they both engaged each other. There was also no advantage from the play.

Peace

Agreed. What little separation might've occured did not yield any advantage to the offensive receiver.

OPI? The restriction is on the offensive player from the snap. The player knows the play therefore has an advantage over the defender.

It appears the offensive receiver initiated a block on the defender. When I was a downfield official as soon as I saw a block it was time to cover the running game. If a pass was thrown pass the line of scrimmage it was an OPI.

Thinks this meets the test.
