Rule 7-2-5 Exception covers this. The only number restrictions are for interior linemen and eligible receivers. #67 was lined up in the backfield and can take the snap. There is no number limitation as to who may pass the ball from behind the LOS. You had a perfectly legal play. The receiving team coach got his butt blistered and he is trying anyway he can to recover.
