I don't have my rule book here but look in the illegal personal contact section of Rule 9. In the bold penalty section it says something about grasping vs. grasping and pulling/twisting 5 yards vs. 15 yards.

Just grasping and letting go on the facemask or any part of the helmet opening is only 5 yards- with no special rule for the "quarterback".

You got it right. Remember- coaches will rarely be satisfied- even if you get it right.
