I have this question: Can an offensive play, any down, start as a regular down, and then the offensive team punt? For example, a team lines up for a
run or pass play. The center snaps the ball to the QB, and then the QB either punt it himself or pass it back for somebody else to punt. Is that
legal?
I'm not talking about how smart (or stupid) this is - just if it's legal.
i don't recall it happening last season but i may be wrong, it can be a pretty useful play, if a team has third and a mile to go, a suprise kick can
catch the defense napping with no chance of a return, can turn out to be a big plus in the field position battle
