You can see it from the front angle as well.  89 leans into the blocker as he engages and loses his balance as a result of the block.  He is already off balance and falling as the hand goes to his back.

Blocked players dont fall towards the block when the blocker is still engaged.   He falls forward as a player is contacting him from behind.  Block in the back,  especially when viewed in real time real speed....the way the game is viewed and played.

Momentum Jimmy.  The block was legal when he engaged from the front and disengaged when the movement of the player caused the block to move to the back.  

Kudos to the refs for seeing it in real speed and not injecting themselves uselessly into the game.

My favorite part was when, one the last play of the game when they needed a touchdown or their season is over, the QB actually threw it into the endzone, instead of throwing it short and hoping for the best.   Such unheard of risk taking.  B)   Is that even legal? 

Oh well there's always next year.  THAT will definitely be our year, we'll get rid of Zimmer and our defense will instantly be better.
