I think you need to seperate the interceptions.

There are those that are from being slightly inaccurate, which usually result not in a open line to the endzone for the defender.

There are those that are bad luck, tipped balls, receiver not looking, pass rusher hit QB's arm, and such that usually don't become a TD.

And there are the ones where the QB stares down the receiver and allows the defender to jump the hell out of the route and have a full head of steam heading to the endzone.

Which ones did JLee throw?

FTR, I think Lee is salvageable also.

Very valid point. I was hoping to hear from someone who distinctly remembers alot off Lee's pick 6's, and if there were some that could have been avoided by better tackling or other issues.

Door #3 unfortunately.

Nonetheless, I look forward to JL contributing over the next two years and helping us win a championship, whether he starts or not.

I think 9 out of 10 times a return over 35 yards can't be blamed on the QB unless it was a short out rout jumped by the defender. Sure he threw an interception, but others also have a responsibility to at least attempt to tackle the defender.

Also, as someone mentioned, certain interceptions lend themselves to TDs. One where the defender is just standing there waiting on the ball (knowing he is about to intercept it becuase it was so poorly thrown) can more easily be returned than one he had to make a spectacular grab on.

lee's accuracy to the flats is terrible, and he over throws or underthrows these players.

he cant hit the screen or the dump pass. Additionally, he cant run, so when a play breaks down or he cant find someone, the dump pass is his last options.
