Jones intercepted pass hits sky-cam cable

[Lagaffe_07]

I can’t wait for the next excuses for Mac ! What’s next? Mac pass hit air so it slowed down the ball which made the ball hit the defender chest. without air Mac would have completed the pass.

Cmon, it was supposed to. It actually didn’t hang enough as Tywuan(the fastest guy on the team didn’t get to it) can we stop this ridiculousness? Those are meant to be run under, it is done so he can release the ball early.and throw it over the DB’s head.

Problem with that is Thornton is running downfield and the ball didn’t get as far downfield as he was. It was short, if he’s supposed to run under it it needs to be long.

sheesh, what some folks will do to make excuses!

What? The one mac released under pressure down the left sideline to Thornton? That wasn’t a perfect pass, but in what world was the pass left short?

It went past Tyquan. How was it short?

I thought Justin Jones said we couldn't cheat anymore, but it's always something at Gillette...

Can we just leave it at "it was a bad decision" and stop trying to find a phantom wire that caused the interception to justify it?

The picture is pretty clear though

Not surprised one his lollipop throws hit the wire. I was there and didn't notice it live.

It was a really bad pass off his back foot whether or not the sky cam wire changed the direction of the ball. So it doesn't really matter.

Exactly off his back foot CB's love those.

This. We need to have a 10x zoomed in super slow motion angle to see if the ball nicked the wire but somehow the "refs missed it". It was a bad throw and I don’t think the trajectory was affected that much. That ball was getting picked 10 out of 10 times. I don't know what the hell Mac is doing at this point. He keeps making mistakes like this and it kills us.

Even gravity was like what the??

It not what the ball looks like getting there. It's where it ends up. Mac's are not ending well.

I'm noticing.

 

[Jim Beankie]

This changes my perspective. Looks like it may have hit the wire.

Regardless, as we all know, it was still a horrible decision, as Brisker was coming from behind fully locked onto the throw, so imho, it was either going to be a pass breakup or INT.

Another new excuse.

clarification:

The camera was awfully close to the field at the end there (especially with the lens angle - edit: well, a super wide angle lens makes this less big of a deal), but rationally, it makes sense that it wouldn't have hit it, even though visually it seems quite compelling.

If they released the entire footage of the original shot, it may be clearer to everyone, but I have a feeling that Rogère Poubelle ordered the destruction of all the tapes.

Just like the fake crowd noise in Indianapolis was “from the CBS broadcast ”
