That's too bad that LB and DB fouls are not offsetting. You should change that.

I should remind my Canadian colleague that LB and DB fouls do not necessarily offset.
If the situation were changed such that the punt was caught and advanced then the receiving team could choose whether to enforce the in flight foul from the point of possession or the point ball dead. The dead ball foul on the other hand, can only be applied after the live ball foul is applied and from where you end up after that enforcement.
So it would be better to say that LB and DB fouls are enforced consecutively rather than offsetting.
