Here's the situation

WR goes deep and is covered man on man.
Makes the catch at the 2 yd line and goes in for the TD.

Ref calls pass interference at the 5 yd line.

Offense Head Coach declines the penalty.

Defense Head coach throws red flag and challenges the TD
because WR stepped on side line before crossing goal line.

After review it is determined that indeed the WR stepped out of bounds
at the 2 yd line.

So who has the ball, where and why?

(remember offense coach decline the pass interference call )

decline the penalty and take it at the 2....

If you meant he stepped out before making the catch, the offense can accept the penalty after the review because of changed circumstances. When they originally declined it, they thought they had a TD. When it was overruled they get the option to decide again...

I presume that you want the situation to be 4th and goal before the play.

They you obviously take the penalty at the 5 for a new set of downs.....

Replay down if it was not 4th.

1st and goal at the 2

or

1st and goal at the 5

i'm pretty sure this is a no-brainer

I thought the Offensive HC declined the penalty...which would mean the penalty was on the defender.

He would have the chance to revisit declining the penalty after the call on the field is overturned. Ball is either at the spot of the foul 1st and goal from the 5 or where it went out of bounds. Since in this case out of bounds is closer to the goal line the HC of the offense would still likely still decline the penalty and the ball would be on the 2 - unless of course the play didn't result in a first down - in which case you take the penalty and 1st and goal on the 5.

Just for future clarification of where threads belong.

WHY IS THIS NOT a MAIN FORUM THREAD?????

IS this not Football? certainly not draft talk.

Please Clarify moderator.

BTW, threads as this have been in this main forum for years and I have been here a very very long time.

"I thought the Offensive HC " Yeah I correct the initial post

I think you hit the nail on the head:

He would have the chance to revisit declining the penalty after the call on the field is overturned.

This is logical anything after the ruling in the field is void if the ruling on the field is changed which it would be by the challenge being upheld.

Thanks mo

2 yard line. Still decline the penalty. Why would you want it on the 5 yard line?
