— -- Kam Chancellor punched the ball free from Lions receiver Calvin Johnson at the 1-yard line when it appeared the Detroit Lions were going to take the lead, and the Seattle Seahawks held on for a 13-10 win on Monday night.

But NFL head of officials Dean Blandino said the Lions actually should have gotten the fumbled ball back at the half-yard line on the play since the ball was intentionally batted out of the end zone by Seahawks linebacker KJ Wright.

Blandino, speaking to Monday Night Football, said the batted ball part of the play is not reviewable even though it was a turnover.
