Regarding Peake INT
Oct 4, 2015, 3:08 PM

It is Peakes fault on the play and here is why. In the game of football like any other game your players have to be able to beat the other teams players. You can't always scheme to get people wide open. Peake did a good job beating his man deep. Now this is where things get tricky and hard for the casual fan to understand. Inside of 50 yards a lot of 1 on 1 passes become jump balls. DWs pass could be argued to be late but he threw into single coverage in the back corner of the endzone. If you notice (some of you have) Peake backpedal and fades away from the ball. Rule number 1 as a wide receiver never fade AWAY from the ball. You can fade TO the ball but not AWAY. Given that he had already established himself deep all he has to do is break down and go up and ATTACK the ball. Then he either makes the catch, forces the incompletion, or the DB runs through him when he goes up and then you get PI. Go back and watch highlights of Nuk. TD or PI every time.
This brings me to my second point. Peake is playing out of position and we should have never have called that play in a million years in the rain. Worse case scenario is we don't convert and we kick a field goal. Instead the worst case scenario happened with the play called and the gained some momentum. The coaches body language and how they addressed Peake plus DWs own comments suggest that INT was in fact on Peake.

Totally agree. Peake has had two ints this year that were his fault this year. He is not the same player after the knee problems. With his height any jump ball should be incomplete if not caught. Watson gave his tall receiver a chance to make a play that he should be able to make. Peake is not 100%, mostly mental. And thats expected after that injury.

Right. Either he should have slowed a little & caught the ball or let the db run over him & gotten PI. When you are behind the db like that, there is no excuse for not getting one or the other. Artavis Scott will fight to the death for the ball. Either he gets it or no one does. Some receivers are like that - if it's not perfect & in stride, they'll just say "Forget about it".

A player has a right to any position on the field that they currently maintain therefore if Peake goes up for a a pass and the DB runs into him which is what would happen with a 6'3 receiver that high points the ball properly. The DB was out of phase and therefore would have had to try and knock out after he came down or PI.

If the DB is looking at the ball and playing the ball, he

has just as much right to go after it as the WR. You can't go through another player in an attempt to get the ball if they have superior position, but both the DB and WR have an equal right to the ball. In this case, the ball was underthrown, which actually gave the DB superior position.

any blame whatsoever to DW, but everybody is ready and willing to jump on the whipping boy. It's a sad, pack mentality, but very common here on TNet.

I mentioned that he was a little late but I PROMISE you can ask any WR coach and they will tell you that 1 on 1 passes that are thrown to you can not be intercepted. Also DW has proven his worth, Peake has not.

Do you actually watch football? That is a designed play to tall receiver that every team uses. It actually works when the much taller receiver stops and jumps. Its either a td or pass interference. Rod gardner and megatron perfected it! watch baylor, tcu and ole miss run that play 3-5 times a game. Read watsons lips after that play. He says you got to go up.

Yea. Not sure what he's talking about...lol under thrown? If it's not under thrown the ball is still either picked or goes out of bounds. It's designed for a physical WR...Peake is not.

in the country and moved up to #6 ourselves, yet we have people on here criticizing one of our own players for failing to make what would have been a very tough play.
