I don't think Lynch intended to grab the ref; based on the way it looked, I think he was trying to grab a Chiefs player and accidentally pushed the ref, then tried to make sure he held on so the ref didn't go down. That's no excuse, though: Lynch wasn't even on the field for the play, there was no need for him to go out in the first place, and you always make sure you avoid putting hands on the refs in any way that seems aggressive.
still it was totally inexcusable whatsoever. If i had grown up a raider fan i would have been embarrased over his actions.
