Default Re: Could a reciever stop the clock by throwing the ball OOB?

[ QUOTE ]
whats to stop a team from after recieving a fair catch, going for a fake fair catch punt, then running for 10 yards. remember the other team has to be 10 yards away from LOS

I assume you are talking about a fair catch kick here. The fair catch kick is a free kick like a kickoff. In order to get possesion back, the ball must go 10 yard (like on an onside kick). In addition, if time is expired, the game would be over after this.

You cannot have a "fake fair catch kick" the bakk must be put in play by kicking.
