Play situation.
2nd and 10 from A's40
QB A12 drops back to pass and is hit and fumbles on A's (his own) 30. He fumbles when hit and the ball is bouncing towards A's goalline.
A22 sees B55 is about to recover the football at A's 25.
A22 tackles B55 at A's 25 so A33 can recover the football.
A33 recovers the football A's 22.
So you are all telling me that illegal use of hands penalty on A22 will be inforced from the previous spot A's 40 if accepted.
I know in this situation it will probably be declined because of the loss of yardage but just go with me here for the sake of the arguement.
That to me would seem pretty advantageous for team A to do that rather than risk the loss of the football.
Am I missing something here???
