So if you fumble on the 16 on 2nd down, kick the ball around and it rolls out the back of the endzone, then you get the ball on the 16 again. No harm no foul. Of course it would be the 3rd down then.
Yep. This would work pretty well I think. It would suck for a team that hit a huge play and then fumbled out of the end zone but that's on the ball carrier.
