Both ints stayed in the air long enough for the WRs to plant and make an adjustment on the ball. Instead, on both picks, the WRs kept fading away from the ball. That creates space for the DB to slide underneath and pick the ball.

Or you can simply say the balls were poorly thrown, which they were.

Nothing the receivers could do

Sowell gets his shoulders turned, gives up a sack. Can't think of one position on this offensive line that doesn't need to be upgraded. So much for continuity.

I am 90% sure a tackle will be our first position selected with our 1st pick.

the DB didn't need space...they had space because both DBs were TOAST and yards behind our WRs.

I can't believe anyone is blaming those guys for two awful passes that should have been touchdowns.

No one is blaming the WRs, but this is what Arians is saying when he talks about the WRs needing to bail out Palmer. The passes were bad, but they didn't need to be ints IMO.

well how about saying "Palmer needs to throw touchdowns there" instead of "WRs need to blunt all physics and someone stop on a dime while 3-5 yards behind the CB and come back and break up passes that can't possibly be broken up?"
