ok. after the QB says " hike", say he rushes and crosses the line of scrimage..... can he still pass the ball forward to a receiver or tight end????

good Question...
answer is no
because once the QB passes the line of scrimmage he became a running back .... another important note is that any player can lateral it (throwing the ball backwards).
hope this helps

only other scenerio not yet covered, the QB could say "hike", then cross the line of scrimage before the ball was even snapped. then step back on side then accept the snap and then attempt to pass. but this would likely be whistled down as a false start penalty.

Unfortunately no......I guess for the game of football fortunately no. Once the QB crosses the line of scrimmage he becomes a ball carrier...ie running back, tight end or wide receiver..(he loses the option of the forward pass). After crossing the line it would be wise to slide or run out of bounds before contact.

no. the moment a QB passes the line of scrimmage, the only way he can get rid of the ball is by lateraling it (which is always backwards).

yes only if he dosent pass the line of scrimmage you know the blue line on madden games but he would probaly get hit before and the past will be incomplete

Absolutly not. And as for "hike". I've come to believe that word is a myth. Usually they have a hut count or a color or number.

no, if he passes the line of scrimmage, he cannot pass forward, but he could pass it backwards

Nope. That is called a "forward pass", which is a penalty.

no, not after he is passed the line of scrimmage.
