Illegal forward what???
Had a discussion at a game recently with a fellow official. Our opinions differed and I wondered what everyone thinks.

QB runs option. Qb and trail back cross line of scrimmage by several yards. QB starts to be tackled and "pitches" ball forward which falls to the ground and the defense falls on it. One official says illegal forward handling because the ball was thrown underhand , therefore a fumble. One official says illegal forward pass and incomplete pass because it hit the ground because the pitch is a pass whether thrown overhand, underhand, pushed forward, etc.

Opinions?????
