Have you ever seen a wide-open receiver drop a pass?

Yeah, but they sure drop it a lot easier when someone gives them a good zetz as they're reaching for it!

I'm glad I saw definition one. Putting definition two in context to your post made me laugh.

Had this happen in my game on Friday:

4th and 5 from the B-8.
DPI in the end zone.
Now it's 4th and 1 from the B-4.

Amazingly, the Team A coach didn't complain at all about not getting the AFD... it helped, I suppose, that his team scored a touchdown on the next play.

First year of the rule change, they'll be ware of the change. It was a BFD.

After a few years, some will forget. New coaches will come in and won't have heard about the rule change.
