I agree with bossman. should have been R's ball at 15 because ball was not touched beyond line by R. If ball was touched beyond line by R then new series is awarded to whoever has possession when down ends.

If I understand the play it is R's ball no matter what:
1. R's ball if: goes over on downs as it was 4th down and ball not touched by R beyond NZ
2. R's ball if: kick had gone out of bounds beyond or behind NZ (5-1-3e)
3. Also, if R had posseed the kick behind NZ ball would have been dead due to the FC signal (4-2-2g).

thats my take anyway...
