They did the same type of block on Andre Smith when he got hurt. I think the refs saw the Steeler player go flying and just assumed it was an illegal block.
What I find funny is that there are Steeler Fans who are crying...big surprise right...because they thought the Refs were screwing them by calling a facemask on the end of that return and they never mentioned which player committed the penalty. What the heck game were they watching if they didn't think a facemask penalty had happened? The way the guy grabbed Nelson's facemask I half expected Nelson's head to come off or twist around.
Additionally, in a scenario such as that I believe the play should stand where the ball ended up at the end of the play. I feel like we were more heavily penalized than they were.
