4merper4mer Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 This would never happen but let's see if you can answer without looking it up. If: Team A lines up for a 2 point conversion and throws a pass into the end zone. The pass falls incomplete but pass interference is called on Team B. Half the distance to the goal....but....Team A decides they will change their mind and go for 1. Where is the ball spotted?
co_springs_billsfan Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 Wouldn't pass interference be a spot foul?
vincec Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Wherever the Pats want it.😆Correct. Edited August 5, 2017 by vincec

PromoTheRobot Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 If you decide to switch to an extra point, you get moved to the 20 because you are switching to the special play that happens at the 20.
co_springs_billsfan Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 Not if it's in the endzone. In the end zone it goes to the 1 yard line though, right? OP did not say where the PI occurred. I agree with that says "wherever the Pats* say"

I agree with that says "wherever the Pats* say" PI in end zone, so if they stay in 2 point mode ball goes from being spotted on 2 to being on 1. If they change to 1 point mode???
QB Bills Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 Not sure, but you'd also have to account for the 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty to Jerry Hughes
frostbitmic Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 PI in the end zone the ball is placed at the 1... PI outside the end zone is a spot foul.... I'll guess it's placed at the 1 The patriots would be awarded the game in this scenario and players on team B would be heavily fined.

OP did not say where the PI occurred. When passing into the end zone from the 2 yard line, it's likely that PI occurred in the end zone. So yes, the ball is placed at the 1. It's a coincidence that that's also half the distance, but you're right - PI isn't a "half the distance" penalty.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 5, 2017 Posted August 5, 2017 I'm thinking that it goes back to the XP spot but have no idea. Not to change the subject but I have a few other questions that fit here as well: - Why isn't spiking the ball intentional grounding? - Why isn't the holder down as soon as he catches the snap in college football?

Intentional grounding is defined as grounding the ball to avoid a sack. Spiking is just to stop the clock. I guess I'm getting old but I remember the days before you were allowed to spike the ball. The QB would have to take the snap and then fire it over the WRs head. Same result, they just don't have to chase the balls around so much any more.

It's a throw, in the pocket, not near an eligible receiver and not past the LOs. By definition that is grounding.
