1. I'm not sure how you think responding to something talking about being tackled in bounds short of line to gain with a statement about being tackled out of bounds or after line to gain is even remotely applicable.


It's because you're not paying attention. The question is about why the rule book mandates stopping the clock on a penalty on plays inbounds short of a first down. The rule book specifically mentions stopping it on those plays because those are the only plays where the clock is still running after the play.

Is this real life?

"At the snap, A22 has been set for one second while A33 continues his motion. The ball carrier is tackled inbounds short of the line to gain.
RULING: Team A live-ball foul, illegal shift. Five-yard penalty.
There is no 10-second runoff because the foul itself did not cause the clock to stop. "

Wtf are you talking about?
