While attempting to reach the kicker, if a defensive player pulls an offensive lineman by the shoulders; it's legal if he lets go on his way by. If he continues to hold the offensive player, it's a 10-yard penalty but NOT an automatic 1st down.
So the ruling by the referees was correct. The announcers should have explained that, but they either didn't think about it or weren't sure why and didn't want to sound dumb by talking about it.
thanks!
figured it had to be something if nobody complained about it.
