I never understood the mechanics of that jump play before. I didn't realize the defensive line just holds the offensive line down so that the jumper can clear.

He clears the defensive line before some of them even move, the O-line had nothing to do with it. He just timed the snap perfectly. If the long snapper holds the ball an extra 1/2 second, he would have been offside.

I actually think that's more technique by the OL than the DL pushing them down. The RG is kneeling before the snap, the LG and LS don't really stand up at all either, but they also have a guy jumping over them right after the snap. A lot of OL technique is to stay as low as possible so you can drive the DL back, so those guys are trying to keep low anyway.

Edit: Well guess I'm wrong then.
