That's just generalizing. I understand his high INT totals aren't all due to hands, but mainly due to incredible instincts. That being said, when there's a play to be made, he makes it. That's why he gets INTs when he arrives and not PDEFs. That's my 2 cents.

Exactly I think there are way too many dropped balls in the game already. The problem is much more than that. Super Accurate Robo QBs, how easy it is to find and get to the spot, lack of momentum, etc.

Play a game with the Raiders, you will routinely have games where your WRs have more Drops than catches. I remember when the new Ratings article came out I got worried because I heard that WRs will drop 1/3 passes that got me worried. As bad as the Raiders WRs were last year no player in the NFL drops one out of 3, and if they do they wont be playing long.
