I have always disliked automatic first downs for 5 yard ticky-tack penalties. Monday it was 2nd and 25 for the Steelers and SF was flagged for a 5 yard penalty "hands to the face" and they march off 5 yards and suddenly it's 1st down. Should be repeat the down and make it 2nd and 20 in that situation.
Basically in that situation, what I'm saying is...one 5 yard penalty by the defense shouldn't wipe out two penalties (a personal foul penalty and a holding penalty) by the offense.
This really annoys me too. It doesn't make the least bit of sense to me.
