No, I'm not using the chains. I'm going to eye up the penalty yardage along with the umpire and we're going to decide if it's a first down or not and make sure the ball's spotted clearly short or clearly ahead of the line-to-gain.

Yes, meant A40. I agree with you and this is what I would do. Curious to see what others would do since this came up in a discussion.
