I am watching Dallas Tampa, the Refs just miscalled a fumble, acknowledged it, but enforced a subsequent 15 yard penalty on the non fumble return. IMHO that is crap.

Speaking of, raise your hand if you’ve made as many PATs as Brett Maher tonight.

Totally pathetic game.

I’m pretty sure that major penalties are enforced on “non-plays” under NFL rules. There’s a reason for that. It removes the obvious incentive for a player to commit an egregious penalty and attempt to injure an opponent on a play that he knows will be called back after review.

I saw that too - I mean if the fumble never happened, then the penalty incurred during the fumble recovery didn’t happen either. Simple cause and effect - no cause, no effect.
