Question on the Williams interception

On the NOLA site there is a front page story on the "10 things learned..." (no link because the story does not have a designated url, just go to nola.com). There is a head on shot of the Williams interception and directly behind him is Crawley with, what looks like, an obvious hold of the intended receivers left arm.
The question is: was this a missed interference call on Crawley or, because of the interception, the interference issue is a non factor; something like a pass that is uncatchable?

It's hard to ascertain from a still image what the actual play was. Crawley's arm was likely coming down to bat the ball away when Williams caught it. Williams didn't interfere so they let it go.

This is only proof that Crawley made contact after the interception though.

As soon as William's fingertips touch the ball you can tackle the receiver so that's why it usually isn't called on interceptions if timing is close

Looking at still shots without consulting the video to make determination on plays in football is about the dumbest thing you can do.

During the game I noticed this. It looked like it was a bang bang play where crawled got turned around, knew it and was going to tackle the reciever as he caught the ball. Williams stepped in front and intercepted as this happened in background

no, an interception does NOT negate PI, and you are right, it was clearly PI, the ref just blew the call or didnt see it, giving the saints a huge break there.
