And yes I understand the NFL rules committee and not the officials make the rules, Im not as ignorant as you keep trying to make me be.

There is no such thing as a "non flagrant twist and pull." By rule ANY twist and pull is automatically a 15 yard penalty. The 5 yard penalty was for a grasp and release. Don't confuse the word incidental with accidental. Player's are considered to always be in control of their actions, there are no accidents in the rule book.
