How do you get a flag on a dead play?

Um...what???

Complete shit

I have never seen it, but unfortunately I get it

Like let's say you go up and pushed a guy or punch him

Doesn't matter that play is dead, it will be a 15 yard personal

 

[JustTheTip]

If it was dead the false start should have applied and then the personal foul, so they got 5 free yards

Make up call from the punt non reversal

 

[kidhawk]

Even if you enforce that as happening after the play you would have to accept the false start as it was before the play. Seems dumb to decline that by rule

I don’t recall but i think it was MNF and saw the same thing.

I thought it was odd then.
