This is also the only time that the team with possession of the ball can move the ball down the field without snapping the ball. Say the QB to get the ball out of the endzone and the long axis of the ball was parallel to the goal line, you always turn the ball to mark it ready for play by having the long axis of the ball perpendicular to the goal line with the leading point of the ball no farther up field than it was when it became dead. If then the back end of the ball is on the goalline you should move the ball forward until it is completely off of the goalline.
Not the easiest thing to describe so just go to 5.3.4 Situation A in the Case Book.
