OK. And you said "no matter what," which encompasses all possibilities. And there's another possibility besides safety on this play.

So after reading the replies ( all good btw, that is why I use this forum)

In this case, yes. Well, A could also recover and run it out of the endzone.

I understand your point. However, I am referring to what happened in the video, not what could have happened.
