Holding (Basic spot)

What if the BJ has a flag down for defensive holding?

Defensive penalties are always from the basic spot, so 1st and 15 from the 40.

Defense holding and your penalizing the offense?

No. Penalizing the defense. I did miscalculate, though. It would be 1st and 20 from the 35. Play ended at the 25, so tack on 10 and replay the down.

The basic spot is the end of the run (where the QB was sacked) because there was no pass/loose ball. If there was a legal forward pass, we'd enforce from the previous spot.
