Guess that's what the 15 yard un-sportsmanlike was for.

in the post game they said it was because more then one player jumped into the crowd, that was right in the corner below where I was sitting (section 241) and I couldn't believe there was a flag, the stadium was so loud in that area, no one heard what was called on the field

Especially since it was about 3 plays after Jones-Drew was pushing garrard in the pile in the 4th and 1 situation.

I really don't think anyone knows, not even the refs

Yeah, will that penalty ever be called in a game of football at ANY level? What kind of textbook example are the refs waiting for? I'm guessing the day a QB stands on the hands of two RBs and they launch him over the pile that maybe a ref could reach for his pocket.

LOL same here. How many times do you see a OLineman push his rb from the back trying to help him get in the end zone or by the first down marker?

Is pushing a player from behind to get them more yards against the rules?  I know it is in college, but didn't think so in the NFL.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's illegal in the NFL. I seem to remember when the subject of Bush pushing Leinart came up last year, that I heard on one of those shows on ESPN (PTI or Around the Horn) say in college it is a penalty but in the NFL it's allowed.

Yep, that's exactly what I was thinking of when I wrote the above post. I've seen LOADS of guys do this in the NFL and never get called.
