How does WAS get to keep the ball after I block his FG attempt? Once the ball is kicked, possession changes!

The 45-yard field goal attempt by Floyd Sykes is blocked by John Maggs.
Larry Johnson recovers the ball for the Xenomorphs at the LAN 29.
Larry Johnson returns the loose ball to the LAN 27.

Joe Davis takes the snap and spikes the ball to stop the clock.

I may be wrong, but from what I understand if the blocked field goal dose not pass the line of scrimmage then either team can return it and since it was on first down and Washington recovered then they keep the ball.

If it passes the line of scrimmage then only the defense can recover.

Some years ago on the NFL the NY Giants blocked a FG attempt by the Eagles and the Eagles recovered and kept the ball
