Speaking of obscure rules ... How can a team get two first downs on one play?

A penalty occurs after first down yardage has been established and that penalty creates another first down
either by Yardage or by Rule.
(Yes; it's a dead ball foul but only one play has occured.)

Those kinds of plays were expected."
