I believe what happened here is he got the spot right the first time (halfway between the 31 and 32) but he was thinking it was a half yard beyond the LTG (thus the stop clock signal). When he looked back he was surprised he was a half yard short. Thinking he must have accidentally spotted the ball short, he puts it down closer to the chains so it would be a first down. When the R comes over he tells him it's a first down. Chains moved quickly and everyone moves on. I'm surprised replay didn't address the spot.
