Isn't it amazing how interceptions just happen sometimes? They happen a lot when the defensive player does the smart thing and hides from the QB.
Jay threw that INT, but it's not an INT that should really upset anybody. There is a risk attached to throwing a pass, and that risk came due on that play.
The second INT is a very different story, but even that doesn't mean he gets all the blame for the loss...
All valid points JJ.
Every QB will throw interceptions (and I believe Brady has tossed 12) but the crucial part of picks is "when and where".
In Fielder's siuation (late in the game and deep in his own end) he has to be 100% sure before he throws that it is a safe pass.
Granted, Bruschi made a great play but any QB knows that when throwing the quick slant you better know where the LB's are.
"I didn't see him" just doesn't cut it.
