On 3rd down, you scramble around, almost get sacked, instead throw the ball into the ground...you're down where you would've gotten sacked and its 4th down...what's the loss?
I don't know, but most Offensive penalties don't result in a loss of down. Normally its not beneficial to have a penalty called against you!
I'm not saying its beneficial. I'm asking how is it a negative...If he doesn't throw the ball into the ground, he gets sacked, the ball is at the same place, and its still 4th down. Am I missing something or is there no penalty to this penalty?
