I must have missed the explanation and may not know the 10 second runoff rule but….

There was a flag on a play with 30 seconds to go. Carolina ball. The flag was overturned, and there was a ten second runoff that Dallas blocked with a timeout.

My question is why was there a 10 second runoff for a penalty flag that was ruled not a penalty?

The penalty flag stopped the clock. There was no penalty, so the improper penalty flag basically granted Carolina a free timeout. So, they run off 10 seconds unless one team burns a TO.

The logic is that it would have taken at least 10 seconds to reset the play. They do the same thing on a booth review.

Does that only occur for improper penalties when the clock would be running? Like 10 second runoff if tackled inbounds but no runoff for incompletion, or does it apply to all improper penalty scenarios?

Pretty sure it's only if the clock would have been running.

Only on “game clock running” scenarios. If Young had thrown an incompletion and one ref called holding (offensive or defensive), then waived it off, it wouldn’t have resulted in a runoff because the game clock would have been stopped (so, logically 10 seconds of game clock wouldn’t have run to reset the play).

They would have just reset the play and the clock would have started on the snap.

Rico Dowdle is averaging 6 yards a carry. These replies aren’t emphasizing enough just how bad the defense is.

Dak currently completing 80% of his passes with 3TDs and no sacks... and losing by 3. Good lord Dallas' defense is generationally bad.

This defense is giving every bad QB in the league a career day. Bryce Young, Justin Fields, Caleb Williams are all absolute jokes unless they face Dallas.
