hey guys what about skelton spin move to avoid the aldon smith sack.

Cam who? Skat-man John Skelton!

Would have been even better if the ball didn't bounce off of Fitzies hands and picked off!

Yup. Great move. Horrible outcome. They teach QBs back in high school to not throw across the body. Either tuck it and run or throw the ball away. Don't force it. That was my point of contention with his two INTs. They got knocked in the air and landed in the hands of the defender.

Yet both of them, while not perfect, could have been caught. I'm far less upset about them than I would be about truly horrific, thrown-right-to-the-defender picks.

Yeah, well, you need 2 picks and 2 TD's. You know, to turn the game around.

Skelton was doing his Roethlisberger imitation on the spin move and his Favre imitation throwing back across the middle.

...and then his Kolb impression when he walked to the bench.

 

[BigRedRage]

that was awesome, roethlesberger style.

As soon as he threw that ball I knew nothing good was going to happen! You'd don't throw back across the field like that it usually winds up 7 points for the opposition as the ball just seems to hang in the air forever and multiple defenders usually can get a good angle on it. Just a terrible decision to even throw it he could have just ran 3'moremyards for the first down.
