You are so, I’m, ‘charitable.’ I’m sure you have never been one of those, “C’mon O-LINE, BLOCK SOMEBODY!” guys after a RB whiffs on a block and gives up a sack.The Jackal wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 10:38 amYou know, I actually don't hate the first interception. It was more of a timing problem than anything.
WCU shows blitz and brings 5. The offensive line picks it up fine. While I don't know if this was the call or a read, Sisson looks to throw into the blitz, which is where you would assume the open space is. Anderson runs a slant and is open. Not sure what Sisson saw, but apparently it wasn't the robber safety.
So, in my opinion, right read, right man, open receiver, just not a well timed throw. As Anderson and Sisson - both young players - play more in this offense, you may see them make quicker adjustments and that will be a first down, not a pick.
Also, nice hustle by Bell and Sisson to keep WCU out of the end zone. With a good defense, sometimes an effort play like that may be the difference in winning and losing.

Did you see Bell on that play? The CB was 8-10 yards off of him (on 3rd & 4) & backpedaling furiously, as they rolled from a 2-shell to cover 3 pre-snap, when the ball was thrown to WCU’s Safety.
Wrong read, wrong man, not-open receiver (that was Bell), well thrown football. Nice hustle by both cited post-INT.
He’s young. He made a mistake. Probably the best thing that could have happened, given the way he responded - sets an example for everyone on the Team of how to deal with adversity. He’s gonna be a fine (maybe better than fine QB) for the Paladins for quite a while, hopefully.
No - both were NOT open - Jeez... almost by definition, you cannot say a Retriever is “open” if a relatively well-thrown ball is cleanly intercepted.The Jackal wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 11:31 amI mean, both guys are open. Hindsight, yes, Bell's open. He's also a lot further away and Sisson appears to think he has less time to throw than he probably did.FUBeAR wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 10:54 amYou are so, I’m, ‘charitable.’ I’m sure you have never been one of those, “C’mon O-LINE, BLOCK SOMEBODY!” guys after a RB whiffs on a block and gives up a sack.The Jackal wrote: ↑Wed Feb 24, 2021 10:38 amYou know, I actually don't hate the first interception.
