Of course you all are right about repeating the down. 5-2-2 is clear on that point. My only defense is that my brain was malfunctioning and I couldn't find the rule reference.

"5 yards are added to the end of the run (if the foul was by the defense)" was assuming that the foul was behind the basic spot.

Wow... I really read a lot in to that original post, didn't I?

"There is never an automatic first down"... for incidental face mask fouls, if that makes it clearer.

I guess I shouldn't be posting here after long days and a lack of sleep (he says after an 18 hour day, running on 4 hours sleep).
