No. It is an untimed down, and the only stat that counts is whether or not the 2-point conversion is successful. Want proof? Here's the most recent example I could think of off the top of my head. In Week 2, the Broncos scored a 2 point conversion, Cutler to Royal. Here is the full play by play:

If you go through line by line, you will see that Eddie Royal had 5 catches for 37 yards, plus he had a sixth catch on the successful 2 point conversion. Now here is the box score for the game:

Note that Eddie Royal is credited with 5 catches for 37 yards. He did not get credited with an additional catch. He did not get credited with an additional two yards.

Is it a interception if the defense catches a option pitch?

No its not. In an option play, the pitch must go slightly backwards like a lateral and when this happens its basically a handoff. At that point its not an interception its a fumble by the offense. The announcers may say that they player "intercepted the pitch" but that does not make it an interception.


Can a player advance an interception after being downed?

No, a player cannot advance an interception after being downed.

In basketball, there is no official position called "quarterback." However, the role most similar to a quarterback in football would be the point guard.

Does passing yards include distance run by the receiver?

No, passing yards only account for the distance the ball travels from the quarterback to the point where the receiver catches it, not the distance the receiver runs after the catch. For example, if a quarterback throws a 10-yard pass and the receiver runs an additional 20 yards after the catch, the play would be credited as 10 passing yards for the quarterback, but the receiver's total yards would include both the catch and the run.

Has there ever been an NFL or college football game where a team only scored 1 point?

Although it is not possible to score only one point in an NFL game in college football it is possible to score only one point. It has never happened, but it would involve a return by the defense on a extra point attempt. If the defense made a return on a blocked kick, fumble, or interception (all dead plays in the NFL on an extra point conversion), fumbled the ball before scoring at the other end, and the offensive conversion team recovered it then went back into the end zone and was tackled, it would a one point safety for the defense.
