			So let's say it is 4th and 10.  Running back gets 3 yards and is prevented gaining further yards by an incidental facemask.  The 5 yards tacked onto the end of the run would still be short of the LTG.  Then we'd have a turnover on downs.  How fair is that?  Use logic: the down must be repeated otherwise we'd have chaos!
