What would happen if the receiving team basically hot potatoes the ball out of bounds via a kick or hand pass ? Can a player bicycle kick a ball out of the air into the stands ? Does it change if the receiving team laterals the ball or illegally forwards passes the ball out of bounds ? Wouldn't the receiving team be assessed a illegal touching penalty at the spot of infraction but retain possession of the ball ?

If each pass is backwards, it just goes out of bounds at that point and that's where their offense will take over. Kicking the ball will result in a foul and penalty.

Or does the kicking team have the option to do the onside kick over from 5 or whatever penalty yards forward?

I've googled online and found nothing so far on a receiving team deliberately kicking the ball out of play on a kick off. I'm down loading the full NFL rulebook 2013 version to see if there is anything specific in that. I am friends on FB with a couple of refs in the UK so will ask them as well.

I'm pretty sure the penalty would be "unsportsmanlike conduct" and therefore no change of possession if done by the receiving team (i.e., re-kick required).

This seems cut and dry so I am probably missing something haha

So if the receiving team continually throws the ball out of bounds do they keep rekicking it or is possession given to the kicking team?

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.
