Lions miffed about no-call on Richardson's touchdown catch

It will go down as one of the best catches in Seahawks playoff history.

The Lions will remember it as another blown call that went against them at CenturyLink Field.

With Seattle and Detroit scoreless midway through the second quarter, the Seahawks opted to go for it on fourth-and-goal from the 2-yard line rather than settle for a field goal. The call from offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell worked perfectly, as wide receiver Paul Richardson hauled in a miraculous one-handed catch with Lions safety Tavon Wilson in close coverage.

But replays showed that Richardson used his right hand to twist Wilson's facemask while hauling in the catch with his left hand.
