3rd and 2 on A's 38. A-1 receives the snap and begins to scramble farther behind the line of scrimmage. B-1 attempts a flag pull when A-1 dips her shoulder down to prevent the pull. This contact is made at A's 35. A-1 evades the defender and throws a forward pass at A's 40. The pass is completed by A-3 who scores a touchdown. What are ways this can be enforced?
There are two offensive penalties on the play: flag guarding and illegal forward pass.
If Team B accepts the flag guarding, the penalty will be enforced 10 yards from A's 35. It will be a replay of 3rd down at A's 25.
If Team B accepts the illegal forward pass, the penalty will be enforced 5 yards from the spot of the pass, A's 40. It will be 4th down at A's 35. Illegal forward pass carries a loss of down.
