If perhaps he swatted down half of those passes aimed at him, we could stop other teams on 3rd downs and may not need any interceptions in the first place.. Hard to figure out.

That 6 of 41 is all incomplete passes. Drops + defensed passes + poor throws. Any pass that targeted Hall and wasn't complete.
Obviously, the only 4 incomplete passes Hall had against him in that game was the 4 interceptions. So Cutler completed 60% of the passes he threw at Hall in this game.
That doesn't mean throwing at him 10 times (inaccurately) was a good idea. He tried a swing pass and a smoke pass to Hall's side, and he came up and made the tackle on both of them.
