If I had 1 wish regarding this forum, it would be that we could somehow remove all of the "apparent new series" nonsense from people's minds regarding FED rules. Can we please not have this argument at the end of EVERY SINGLE THREAD?
There is no verbiage telling you to start the clock on the snap after an "apparent new series". Please - to all who continue to think this way - RE-READ THIS SECTION. Memorize if necessary.
The clock stopped at the end of the play (the reason it stopped is immaterial... truly). We administered (or offset in this case) the relavent penalties. Since there is no new series being awarded, the clock starts on the RFP.
