And why can't you have an IG on a backwards passs? isn't IG IG?

Fouls can be called after an IR review has provided new "facts" to the R.

IG specifically applies to forward passes. You can have an illegal backward pass, i.e. when thrown deliberately OOB to conserve time, but that is not IG.

I can understand the views on here that it was probably interference by the sideline but then why did the ref state the penalty on the play was for the sideline personel TOUCHING the ball!?!?!?

Where i think most of us agree that it was inconclusive whether the ball was touched or not.

I thnk it would be fairer to say, SOME of you thnk it was inconclusive.
