For the life of me, I dont understand why we call pass plays that take 5 seconds to develop.

I find that he is more indecisive and a quick pass over the middle turns into a 5sec/ scramble development play...

I get not wanting to throw an inception but when its 3rd and 6 at the opponents 40 I don't think its necessarily a bad play if you throw an interception trying to make a play. What's the point of being mistake free(throwing it away or dumping it) if you don't attempt to make the first down to extend the drive?

When Brennan made his last interception he was attempting to make a play although forced on 3rd down... it would have been useless anyway when it would have been 4th and 9 at the opponent 42yrd line.

But also in Etlings defense as a group, our receivers suck.
