I agree Sherman's explanation makes sense as to his intent, though I don't know by the rule book whether or not he should have received a penalty.
Still, the refs totally effed up that situation when you consider the delay of game penalty they gave Bills. During the game, they basically showed that the play clock was at 5 seconds when the refs stepped away from the football, resulting in a delay and loss of five yards. And the fact that they forced the kicker off the field because he had been "injured" on the Sherman play seemed completely crazy as well, forcing the Bills to spike the ball. Just a completely crazy scenario.
