Pass. If the receiver is not open, run.
Is a catch behind line of scrimmage considered a run?
It depends on where the quarterback is standing in relation to the receiver. If the pass is forward, it is still a pass even if the receiver is behind the line of scrimmage. If the pass is backwards, it is considered a lateral and therefore a run.

What is the 'pocket' in football?
The "pocket" is a horseshoe shaped area formed by offensive linemen that drop back and protect the quarterback during a pass play. In theory, if the quarterback remains within the pocket, he will have sufficient time to find a receiver and throw a pass. If defensive players penetrate the pocket before the pass is thrown, the quarterback is either sacked or forced to run out of the pocket...and then he's on his own.
What advantage in American football does the offensive team have when the defensive safeties are playing deep and have man for man pass coverage?
When the defensive is playing with their safeties deep and have man to man pass coverage, the offensive has a great advantage if they have a quarterback who can run. That's because in the defensive set, no one is covering the quarterback. Well that's fine if the quarterback is not a running one. If he is a runner, then no one is guarding him and he has plenty of room to run for good yardage.
