You have to be very cautious in listening to broadcasters about much of anything when it come to rules. And if you did not see this on TV and heard this on radio then be really cautious. I am not saying they were totally wrong, but most officials know that DPI is an automatic first down and if they did not give a first down for a penalty, then it likely was something else. And without a microphone on the Referee I do not trust broadcasters to get things right in many situations unless it is your typical holding call and even those they get wrong.
