I agree with you and your reasoning Andrew.

Lets change it a little bit to see it better. The kicker gets drilled before he even drops the ball to kick it, but just gets knocked weay back but doesn't go down. He stays on his feet and scrambles to the side, sets himself, and kicks the ball. You don't have RTK, you have nothing. The only way this is different from the original play is I put more of a time factor between the contact and the actual kick.
