Blocked Kick?

Watching Bears-Chargers this afternoon...

End of the first half, San Diego is attempting a long field goal. The Bears put Devin Hester in the end zone, hoping to catch a short kick and return it. The kick was almost long enough, hitting the crossbar and bouncing back in to the end zone. Hester leaped to try and catch it before it hit the cross bar.

What would have been the call if Hester had made contact with the ball before it hit the cross bar? Is it similar to goaltending in basketball?
