Where would rule the basic spot to be for this play?
If we say the spot where the ball was when the IW sounded, we are hurting K. The ball might have traveled another 20 or 30 yards. The PSK spot is the spot where the kick ends, but with an IW, there is no equitable way to determine that spot.
Also, we can't assume that R would have retained possession of the ball. They could have muffed the kick or turned it over with a fumble.
I don't think we can apply PSK to this play. K is getting a gift but R should not have fouled. Absent the foul, the down would have been replayed.
