It's not going to matter for the final result of this play, but I would have to say that the basic spot for the illegal kick would be the end of the related run (the spot of the fumble), not the 20 yard line (using 10-4-4). As I said, the difference between the two does not have a bearing on the result of this play: if K accepts the penalty it will still be a safety, and declining it would still be a touchback.
REPLY: I agree that it's not going to matter in this play, but I'm curious why you would use the end of the related run as the basic spot. Why would you not use 10-4-4 to establish it?
