I agree with Ed. There is no real evidence that a timing error occurred or, if it did, what the time on the clock should be reset to.

Secondly, a first down is not an automatic clock stopper. After the officials determine that a first down has been made, they signal for an officials time out. That all can take a few seconds so even if there was a delay, there is no timing error. The official's signal is the clock killer, not the end of the play.
