You can never have enough depth at CB, but at this point Miami just seems to be looking for warm bodies to throw out there. O'Leary seemed to regress this year, so no great loss I guess.
O'Leary's drop leading to that first INT was essentially game over. Critical mistake. Good riddance. I guess this shows the coaching staff is serious about such errors ... but then none of them will get fired for that historically bad defensive call at the end of the half so who knows. X is done for the year so yeah they need some bodies.
I would put that INT on Fitztragic. He fired a 98mph missile at O'Leary from what seemed like 10 feet away from him.
I think its fine to say you want him to catch that ball but that doesnt excuse the throw making it 10x more difficult than it needed to be.
Okay...I'm just going to guess you've never played QB or WR at any level. I'm agreeing he should still catch it, it's still a poor throw. Any throw with that much mustard on it needs to be low generally speaking because it invites the possibility of what you saw happen. Again, yes I'd like him to catch it too. Still a bad throw. Also in those days a lot of WR still "cheated" using gloves with extra grip and stickem, even Jerry Rice. I'm pretty sure that practice has been cracked down on now.
And when they didn’t, the ball wasn’t coming your way for awhile. Perform of Marino would find people who will.
from my recollection Crawley has 1 career pick and it was 2 years ago.......Cutler threw a pretty good jump ball that Julius Thomas should have caught in the end zone and Crawley picked it..........
Again, stick em and tampered gloves were incredibly common in the Marino era. You guys really dont understand that just firing a ball in 100 mph in close is considered a bad throw by coaches? Not necessarily taking 100% blame away, he still needs to catch it, put QB's are generally taught to throw the ball low if it's coming that hot because balls tend to pop in the air.
