So why would Finlay report it as a cheap shot when he was at the game?

Just before the camera closes in on PR, you can see Scherff gets thrown to the ground (left bottom corner of your screen).

The issue I have is this: if nothing more happened, cheap shot is an over statement, and if something more happened, why didn't the whole OL get into it with the culprit instead of whining at the officials ?

This is what Finlay wrote at the time on Twitter:

Then I don't like the lack of reaction by the team. You never want to praise brawls in sport, but man if he got hit while on the ground is whining at the official really all you gonna do for your teammate?

Put it this way, Finlay saw that, Keim saw Reed pissed off yelling at the Falcons bench and Moses got a PF penalty. Something dirty must have happened.
