3rd & goal to goal at the 9. Quarterback rolls out and throws ball into the endzone from the 7. The pass is incomplete. Where is ball spotted if penalty is accepted?
|
4/G from B-12.
penalty is LOD and 5 yards from the spot of the foul (i.e the end of the run). |
Yep, 7-5-2 if you want to look in the book.

Unlikely
Highly unlikely, but what if B's coach insisted on declining the penalty?
|
Declined? Pretty easy - just like any other declined penalty, pretend you didn't throw the flag and go with the result of the play.
Incomplete pass. 4th-G at the 9. |

I think if they originally say decline, you want to make sure they fully understand that we have a LOD so by declining it, the only thing they are gaining by declining it is NOT moving team A back 5 additional yards. Usually they really do not understand how that all works, and I think we need to make sure they fully understand their options before letting them decline a LOD foul. The only time I have ever seen a team not want to accept a yardage penalty, which is a no brainer is if the team has a FS or DOG on a very short FG and they are at a wide angle and do not want to back them up and give them a better angle. |

If he threw an incomplete pass from the 15 (a legal one), would you spot the ball at the 15? No - the spot of the ball after an incomplete pass is the previous spot, not the end of the run.
