I've never heard that term, but I would assume it means a touchdown scored from a play that originated at the line of scrimmage, as opposed to a touchdown scored on a kickoff return.

What criteria determine what counts as a passing touchdown in football?

In football, a passing touchdown is scored when a player throws the ball to a teammate in the opponent's end zone, and the pass is caught legally. The criteria for a passing touchdown include the ball being caught by a player in the end zone, the player having possession of the ball with both feet in bounds, and the pass being thrown from behind the line of scrimmage. If these criteria are met, the team earns points for a passing touchdown.


Kicking team has their player get hit with ball on shoulder. receiving team gets ball runs down field and fumbles. Kicking team gets ball and runs for a touchdown. Is it a touchdown?

It depends on if the kicking team player was 10 yards past the line of scrimmage and also on whether it was a punt or kick off. If it was a kick off and the player was 10 yards past the line of scrimmage, then it would be a touchdown. If the player was not 10 yards past the line of scrimmage, then it is a penalty. If it is a punt the ball is placed where the player hit the ball.
