*Update, 12/25, 12:30 PM ET* - The NFL did make a stat change here to their official Gamebook: nflgsis.com - we are correctly reflecting their stat change and it will show in your box score on Thursday at 4 PM ET as always when we apply them. You can see under the hood it's already applied: fleaflicker.com. I see you won the Championship anyway, so congratulations: fleaflicker.com
The NFL did not initially rule it as a block: nflgsis.com
Blocked FG's are tricky (and a bit trickier than blocked punts, though those are tricky, too) for them to score as it has to do with the line of scrimmage; but it's not counted in this case as you can see on Page 3 of how the NFL scored it in their official stats.

Should there not be a block kick credited to the NE Def for the Wilfork block?
4th and 14 at NE 34 (5:21) N.Folk 52 yard field goal is No Good, Short, Center-T.Purdum, Holder-R.Quigley. Ball tipped by NE 75 -- Wilfork.
