Ok need help at the 1155 left 2nd quarter. I was watching this play and never seen this...
#6Qb is lined up wr in motion takes hand off IN FRONT of #98QB then rolls out to left with the hand off and then throws down field. ..on a pass doesnt the hand off need to be backwards.

this is illegal right you cant hand the ball forward and still throw the ball...

Legal. Handoffs can be in any direction. Passes, pitches, tosses, etc. have to be backwards (in order to make a subsequent legal forward pass).

Yep!!! To also add, as long as the linemen are not illegally down field, you can throw.
