[QUOTE][i]
I read that as well, Thomas, but in 4-3-10 it gives some examples, including Bwd Pass OOB's, but says in the end, "and any other intentional foul that causes the clock to stop." Now the "foul" part is what make me wonder if it falls under 4-3-10. However when it discusses IG and IFP it says in both cases is says "with the intent to conserve time." So I would assume that if the FFumble in your opinion was "intentional" with the intent to conserve time, you could do have the 5 yard penalty from the spot of the fumble, a 10 second run off, and start the clock on the RFP.

The best part is the game can end during the 10 second run off, and that would be a great rule to add to NF and NCAA in my opinion. It eliminates the offense gaining an advantage in the last minute.

I am going to email this senario to a current NFL official I keep in contact with, and see if he agrees we could have a 10 second run off. It may be a few days, as he does not check his email that often. I'll let you know what I find out.

MJT, No problem. I was just wondering. I am working hard all the time on NFHS rules and every now and again I do a semi-pro game that play by NFL rules, which is "modified" a little when I wear thw WH. LOL
