buildingmaint Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Just watched the end of the Brown's and Steeler's game that ended with a kind of hail mary pass. My question is ,once the pass is tipped can you not block ,tackle , grab the receiver without getting a pass interference penalty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I believe you can do whatever you want (save facemasks and whatnot) once the ball is tipped. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HedleyLamarr Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Any player's fair game to be cleanly interfered with once the ball's tipped by either team.Braylon should have caught that, though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nation Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 question: in the last play, braylon touched/tipped the ball with his foot out of bounds, would it have still counted had he caught the ball and brought his foot inbounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even through the darkest days....this fire burns...always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning River Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Even though Edwards may have stepped out of bounds, he was not the first to touch the ball. So, if he was able to grab it and get his feet in.. it would be a TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leopard88 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I believe he would still need to reestablish himself inbounds even if he was not the first to touch the ball. In other words, if my understanding is correct, he could not jump from out of bounds, catch the ball, then land inbounds. He would need to be fully inbounds before touching/catching the ball.Off-topic, was it me or was there an awful lot of cheering going on when the Steelers took the lead?

It just seemed like more than usual, especially for a game in Cleveland.
