Interestingly enough, if the QB fumbled the ball back on the 28 and then fell on it himself, this would revert to a loose-ball play and the penalty would be assessed from the previous spot.

Wouldn't that be true only if the foul occurred while the ball was loose? Or does Fed now classify the entire down as a "loose ball play", the way you have pass plays & kick plays? And does it matter that he fell on it himself? Wouldn't the same enforcement be available if a player of B recovered it?

All runs prior to lose ball are consider part of the loose pall play behind the LOS.
