Title: Punt change of possession play
Post by: Stinterp on September 07, 2015, 04:22:33 PM
K's ball 4th and 10 at midfield. K's punt crosses the NZ, is muffed by R59 at the R-45 yard line and bounces back to the K-40 yard line. The ball is picked up by the punter K20 at the K-40 yard line who runs across the NZ to the R-47 yard line and throws an incomplete forward pass?

1st and 10 for K at K45. Don't forget to enforce the Illegal forward pass.

If he threw the incomplete pass from behind the neutral zone it would be 1st and 10 for K at the previous spot.

Pass was thrown 3 yards beyond the NZ.  What about the loss of down on the penalty?

Doesn't apply.  See rule 5-1-3f.

Why does everyone forget the 15 yard penalty you're going to have to throw on the R coach when you tell him that K threw an incomplete pass on 4th down and gets to keep the ball and have a first down on top of it?   ;D pHiNzuP :sTiR:
