How many times will I call OPI when A blocks downfield? 100% of the time. Same with away from the ball.
If A88 goes down field and blocks, B knows that it's a run and breaks off coverage. A88 has now opened up himself and every other receiver on the field. Not to call this OPI is cheating B.
There is no need for A to block on this play. Why would you let a foul that can have a huge impact on the game go by?
Feel free to lobby for a rule change, but until then, you have to have to make the call.
