Take a look at ...

Note that in the drive chart for my team, Canton Bulldogs, the first drive is
1 14:47 4:04 OPP 25 6 -49 Field Goal
Now, what has been missed is that first play of the game, my KR returned for a TD.
From the scoring summary, opponents the Generals scored a 44 yard field goal with 10:46 left in the first quarter; starting at the 25, they went 7 plays including the FG, getting to my 26 yard line for a 44 yard field goal - 25 + 25 = half way line, another 24 takes it to my 26 yard line for the drive should have been
1 14:47 4:04 OPP 25 6 49 Field Goal
in the Generals section.
So, what I am suggesting is the following, given similar occurred with a pick six in another game.
1) Drives are incorrectly registered when a non offensive TD occurs.
2) First drive after the non offensive TD is assigned to the team that scored the non offensive TD, not the opposition.
I've PM'd boss man, who probably won't read it, but hopefully it'll make sense for anyone wonder why the drive chart box can tend to be wrong.
