I'm pretty sure this is not correct

The opposing team punts. There is a penalty. They are awarded the ball and the approx. 40 yards gained on the punt, along with the ball back. I don't think so.

It was a hold by Ravens on the punt return, same as a Def or Off hold penalty, unless I have missed something

"Unless I have missed something." Yes, the other team got the ball back plus the punt yardage.

It was 4th & 5, the hold (and 20 yd penalty) automatically gave Miami the 1st down. Depends where the hold took place, as I can't see where BAL 32-Kelly Johnson is on the punt return its hard to say.


3-5-MIA 34 (5:04) 17-Charles Jewell pass incomplete, intended for 85-Joseph Roberts. Pass knocked down by 38-Michael Talley.
Offensive Play: I Formation Normal TE Flag
Defensive Play: 3-4 Normal 2 Deep Man

4-5-MIA 34 (4:59) 8-Norman Womack punts 42 yards to BAL 24. Fair Catch by 34-John Fluharty. PENALTY - Holding (BAL 32-Kelly Johnson)
Offensive Play: Punt
Defensive Play: Punt Return

1-10-BAL 14 (4:53) 17-Charles Jewell pass complete to 85-Joseph Roberts to BAL 9 for 5 yards. Tackle by 38-Michael Talley.
Offensive Play: I Formation Normal FL Hitch
Defensive Play: 4-3 Under Crash Right - Run Key



Looks like a straight 20 yard penalty. I have had more beer than I usually drink, so have probaly got this all wrong, but through my beer goggles thats how it looks to me.

No.

MIA punted from their own 34, and were given the ball at the BAL 14 after the play.

Fair catch made at Ravens 24 + 10 yds for the pen. A hold penatly is 20 yards, no? Not sure about STs holds, I'm assuming its the same as O and D. The pen is usually awarded from where the hold occurred.

That is a big time bug.

The ball should have gone to Balt on the 14 yard line after the 10 yard penalty

Its always a 10yd penalty for hold by offense or who is in possession of ball and usually its a spot of foul except on ST, then its where possession takes over unless the hold happens behind spot of possession.

Defensive holds are 5 yds and automatic first down from line of scrimmage.

Once the ball is kicked any holds by the defense are considered on the return thus the 10 yard penalty

Woah, I'm not really sure how that happened but it is definitely a huge bug. I'll definitely investigate it.
