In one of the games on Sunday there was a penalty against the defense and a dead ball unsportsmanlike also against the defense for taking off a helmet. The Refereee only penalized the live ball, stating "by rule only one penalty is enforced".
The announcer quickly picked up on the fact that if a live ball foul is called the offending team has a free shot at an unsportsmanlike foul. In federation all unsportsmanlike fouls are assessed.
Anyone know why the NFL rule is different?
