REPLY: Coach, in the play you posted, the receiving team actually did have a choice: take the ball at the spot where they fumbled it, or have the down replayed. Of course, they would never choose that one. Think of it this way...the only times a team does NOT have a choice to make is if the inadvertent whistle blows (1) during a legal forward pass, or (2) during a legal scrimmage or free kick.
