Blandino after wild Monday nighter: Missed calls will be addressed

The first half of Monday night's game between the Buffalo Bills and Seattle Seahawks ended in wild and confusing fashion.

The officiating crew, led by Walt Anderson, appeared to blow a number of calls that prevented the Bills from kicking a manageable field goal - a series of events that would end up costing the away team. Following the game, senior vice president of officiating Dean Blandino addressed the plays on NFL Network.

With three seconds left in the half and the Seahawks leading 28-17, the Bills lined up for a 53-yard field goal, but Seattle corner Richard Sherman jumped offside and ran into kicker Dan Carpenter. Sherman was only flagged for offside on the play.

On NFL Network, Blandino explained that the referee "didn't think the contact was enough for unnecessary roughness and, obviously ... that's not the case," according to Kimberly Jones of NFL.com.

"We certainly don't want to miss calls like that," he added.

To make matters worse, the Bills were charged a timeout due to the fact Carpenter needed medical attention after the hit. Buffalo was forced to spike the ball in order to get another field goal attempt.

Carpenter then nailed a 49-yard kick, but the Bills were given a delay of game penalty, though replays showed the play clock was never reset before the play.

"We want to reset the play clock there, when the officials are actually conversing and delaying the snap," Blandino said.

"We're going to address the situation with our crew," he finished.
