1. Did you text your question? It's tough to understand.
2. If the ball is past the line of scrimmage, the ball carrier may lateral, meaning throw the ball back or sideways, but not forward.
3. Within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage (ahead of the line of scrimmage), the defense may block or hit the opposing player, and further down the field if the ball is being advanced. There is no limit on hitting the offense behind the line of scrimmage or as the play unfolds past the line.
4. SuperBowl Sunday is February 3d. The game starts 6 PM Eastern time, so probably around 11 PM in Ireland.

1) no, you cannot throw a forward pass once you are beyond the line of scrimmage. you can throw it backwards, that is known as a latteral.
2) i'm confused by the question. do you mean the line between the offensive line and the defensive line? that is known as the neutral zone. and yes, a blocker can flatten a defensive player even if the ball is no where near, as long as he doesn't grab or 'hold' the guy. that is known as a 'pancake' block.
3) superbowl sunday is feb. 3rd this year, i believe. kickoff is around 6:25 PM eastern time. it could be a historic day as the new england patriots are trying to become only the 2nd team in NFL history to have an undefeated season. (even though they were caught cheating earlier in the year)

Wow!
First of all you need to learn how to type in English and not in this text abbreviated crap. I think you'll get better answers that way.
