[QUOTE="Daryl Muellenberg, post: 636021, member: 9708"] Yes, penalties are there to deter conduct. But there should be limits. So how is holding (a 5 yard penalty) so much different that being offsides (a 5 yard penalty). To deter being offsides, why don't they give an automatic 1st down for that penalty? Your argument that a lesser penalty wouldn't deter any infractions doesn't hold water IMO. If the defense continues to commit the penalty, then they just keep on tacking on penalty yards and getting the down over. That should be enough of a deterrent. [/QUOTE]
