This is more a question on philosophy than strict rules interpretation. Discussion involved following play. QB A7 in shotgun formation 5 yards behind line of scrimmage. At snap guard A76 blocks defensive lineman below waist. He does this on initial charge, he doesn't retreat one step and then throw block. Because on this play the ball is out of the free blocking zone almost instantly some felt this block would be illegal unless the guard is extremely quick. Others felt that in spirit of rules this would be legal as long as it was on initial charge with no delay. Opinions please?
