Illegal Forward Pass Situation

Same under NF rules. Flag it but let the play continue if the pass is completed.

So, under my scenario A gets the ball 1st and 10 from the 15 or 12 if accepted since the penalty is enforced from the end of the run?

In your play, the foul occurred during a muffed snap. This is a loose ball play. Basic spot is the previous spot.

In NCAA rules, yes. There would be no reason to even offer Team A an option of accepting or declining. They are going to get the yardage and the penalty as there is only 1 run on the play and it starts at the snap and ends downfield.

I agree Smiley, but a snap is a backwards pass.

Sorry, I was speaking NF rules.

No problem. Thanks for all the posts from everyone; they helped a lot.
