i guess in the OP's defense, he thinks that redskins would need to ACCEPT the penalty due to the TD being scored, but whenever you have no timeouts left 10 seconds automatically runs off the clock

Idiot.



Right. If it couldn't end on an offensive penalty you'd simply instruct one of your players to have an offensive personal foul if you didn't score at the end of the game to give yourself another shot.

It's like a 10 second runoff inside a minute if the offensive gets penalized I believe

I'm pretty sure the runoff only occurs if the clock was already counting. it's so you can't use a penalty to trade yards for a timeout. since the clock was already stopped there's no penalty.

however since time ran out on the play (and they don't add time to the game after penalties). the cowboys had no time to run a play post penalty, hence the game was over.

Offense it can otherwise teams could keep getting penalties to keep the game going if they are on offense.

There was no runoff. The clock was on 0.

In the NFL it ends on an offensive penalty.
In the NCAA it only ends if the offensive penalty is intentional grounding.

For those of you who can't just answer the question without your delusional superiority:

The OP may be an idiot, but he just got smarter. You guys on the other hand are still buttwipes.

The D could decline the penalty if they don't score, and the game would still be over.

I think the same rule as defensive should apply to offensive.

If you did that, then DBs would mug WRs in the waning seconds of the game with impunity. In otherwords, you would reward cheating.

If you score and there's a penalty, you should have another shot. You should be penalized the yardage, but get a chance. Maybe the call before it was a bad call, at least then, you get another shot.

The defensive rule should apply to the offense, not the offensive rule should apply on defense. So, IMO, the game can't end on an accepted penalty by either side.

The only way an offensive penalty ends the game is after the clock runoff or timeout taken

It can't end on a defensive penalty for some bizarre reason.

"Three seconds to go here at the Superdome, with the Jets leading the Saints 14-10. New Orleans has the ball at the Jet 10 yard line, time for just one more play. Brees drops back and throws into the end zone, but Colston is held and thrown to the ground by Revis. And time expires.

Oh well. Game over."
