Lets say the ball is 1st and goal at the 6 1/2 yard line.
The play goes towards the linesman side of the field and the runner goes out of bounds near the down stake and there is offensive holding.
Well the guy in charge of the down marker has bailed out fro safety and you have to mark off the penalty from the previous line of scrimmage.
With the chains being clipped you now will have an exact location as to where 1st down started and get the proper mark off rather than guess.
Hope that makes sense to you
