How about this one?

A ball on their own 20 with only seconds left down by one point. QB drops back and completes a pass to a receiver that runs all the way down to B's 10 yard line. He realizes he's not going to score so he throws the ball forward to a blocker who takes the ball into the endzone.

Illegal forward pass. Decline the penalty and A has a touchdown. Accept the penalty and A will get an untimed down they can use to leisurely kick a game winning field goal.

Anything to stop this? I realize this would be pretty hard to pull off.
