Feed dog and presser feet question

(Sorry about the sound my 3D printer is running in the background. )

 

i have two questions about the way my 206rb is feeding. I’ve been slowly dialing her in as I learn the mechanics

 

(First part of the video)

My first question: is it normal for the feed dog to impact the outer presser foot as it comes up and before the foot lifts? Is this timing or should I grind off the inner back side of the presser foot where it makes contact? When sewing I noticed that my material sometimes gets pressed forward and I think this might be the cause  

 

(Second part of the video)

My second question: my material is getting pulled and it’s hard to keep it straight. You can see it pulling up (I’m assuming during tensioning) right as the vibrating presser foot hits it’s highest point and begins to come back down. You’ll see the fabric flare up and it pulls it to the side. Can this be fixed?
