hat makes zero sense that that happens on 4th down. It’s a penalty, and yet they get another 4th down to punt?


If they hold on 4th down and we accept, the down is replayed.

I would think the illegal forward pass penalty being accepted is the same.

How is it not?


That would mean on every blown up 4th down attempt just throw it to a lineman and take your 5 yard penalty then try again.

Should be turnover on downs
They ruled it a pass, in which he illegally gained first down. So yes you replay the down. Just like any other penalty.
If they ruled it a fumble, then he couldn't advance, that would be a turnover on downs.

Can’t advance a fumble on 4th down it would come back the the spot of the fumble and be a turnover on downs

I would think if you decline the penalty, it's a completion for a first down
You're probably going to correct but if that guy can't legally make that catch, it just feels like a weird rule.

Just saying we should be able to decline and get the ball at the original spot or something.

They made a penalty and benefitted 30+ yards by their mistake.

Can’t advance a 4th down fumble anyway. Would have been a Saints 1st down where he caught the “fumble”
