Re: Collins' INT/Moss' "give up"
That play wasn't on either of them 100%. I would say that it is more on Moss than Collins though. I think it was a terrible pass, it should not have been throw. I would say that he shouldn't have thrown that ball 100% of the time. I still don't see what Collins saw to make him put that football up. However, Santana can't stop on that route. There was absolutely no reason for it! Play to the whistle! I was offended that Santana Moss got to keep his jersey after not looking for/locating/fighting for the football on that play. There is no explanation that will satisfy me as to why Moss didn't fight for the ball or at least try to break up the pass.
During the play, before the pick or the return, (and well before Collinsworth's analysis) I was screaming at the TV, "Why the f@#k did you stop?!" I still don't believe there was a valid reason for Santana to stop the route and there is no explanation that I think I can stomach.
