Defensive Holding Penalt\y Yardage Tacked on

[BotchedLobotomy]

So what was the deal with the two defensive holding penalties on us where they tacked on the yardage to the end of the run?

Typically on a defensive holding call you take the five yards and the first down or you take the result of the play right?

If you make a successful play and get yards you get that + the penalty!! If not you just get the 5 yards

yeah seems like an odd rule to me.
You could complete a 30 yard pass and get an extra 5 yards because of holding.

I don't know if I am just being an idiot, but I don't think that is the case. On defensive holding don't you accept the penalty and get the penalty yards with a first down, or you decline the penalty and take the results of the play, not both?.

 

[erod]

You only get the extra yards on a running play, I believe.

 

[DogFace]

Only on a run? Maybe this just doesn’t come up much because of that. ? I was surprised too by the 5.

"Those yards will be added to the end of the run" is a phrase you here fairly often.

Rules of the game they have to compensate you for the penalty

Has this always been the case because this seems new to me?

Yes but if you have a successful play you add that on to it decline it. Same when a DL goes off sides and it's a FREE PLAY you get yards, good, then you add on the penalty

Right this

Yeah, it seemed new to me as well. First time I've seen this. And I've been watching football for a million years!! LOL

No, the offsides penalties are declined, unless the offense feels the 5 yards and replay of the down is better than the result of the play.

I agree if its a personal foul but not on holding.

You're right, my mistake. Holding, like pass interference is declined when the result of the play is favorable.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Must be a new rule, because I don't recall these being tacked on before recently either.

Always thought only one penalty was accessed on a play, except when another infraction was committed after a play was over, in addition to the penalty during the play.

Clearly not. You just saw the application of the rule. Twice.

Yet you persist in thinking you are right? Despite clear evidence of the contrary?

You want to add to the conversation or just be a D?

Right? How does one claim to be right while asking a question?
