Why was Hasselbeck’s tackle illegal?
You can "what if" any game to death and it still won't change the outcome. And the ball did break the plane prior to him getting pushed back.

Hasselback's tackle, I believe shouldn't have been called. I think from the ref's vantage point he thought Hasselback was putting a cut-block on one of the blockers, when after seeing it from a different angle, it showed he was trying to tackle the ball carrier low--which is legal.
