TX - please explain how you think there would be no play after a penalty for Illegal Participation? If what you are saying is right, every defense on every last play should rush 40 people out on the field to stop it.

It depends on how they would have chosen to flag the acts. If they had used 9-2-2-b-1 then it would have been a "live ball penalized as dead ball" foul and there would be no enforcement. If they called it a 9-1-4-a foul, then there would have been a replay. Media reports are quoting Dave Parry saying there would have been no replay so he apparently saw it as a 9-2-2-b-1 foul. I don't agree. In either case it could not have been an illegal participation foul.
