ok, I see where I was getting confused.

Code:
The snap of the ball – Once the defense is set, the offensive coach will turn the board on for 1 second to simulate the snap of the ball. After the snap of the ball, the offensive coach may pivot any unengaged players. The time limit for offensive pivots is 15 seconds. After the offensive pivots are made, the defensive coach may pivot any unengaged players (no rover players are allowed). The time limit for defensive pivots and rover is 15 seconds. Once all pivots are made, the offense will begin the play by stating the ball carrier. If the ball carrier is directly behind the center (QB), the coach may elect to run or pass during the play. If the ball carrier is an RB, the defensive coach operates the switch and the play is run from that point.
I was thinking that you only got one stoppage, but you actually get two.
So the following should be legal...
1. Ball is snapped for 1 second.
2. Offense can then pivot any unengaged figures. So in what I'm trying to do, the WR runs back at snap of ball. If he is unengaged, I can then pivot him to be facing upfield agin.
3. Defense makes its adjustments.
4. I announce that the QB has the ball and turn the board back on.
5. When I am ready to pass, I turn the board off again to set up TTQB or sticks and attempt the pass.
6. Play resumes if pass is completed.

This is correct?
