Carlos with an INT?!

[Monksdown]

I remember that play. He wasnt going for the ball. He thought the receiver was going to catch it. He was timing his hit. Helmet first, so that hit the ball where the receiver's hands would have been, the top of carlos' dome.

Keep your head up son!

Someone mention seeing Brandon Lloyd saying "he caught it"? (perhaps in another thread?) I am relieved that Rogers finally made the right read and actually caught the ball (much like the aforementioned Lloyd comments). Rogers however, should NEVER hold the ball with 1 hand and never perform any cool set the football down move. He's let more touchdowns bounce off his hands, chest and shoulders than Mike Sellers has scored in the last 3 seasons. He shoulda just been happy to catch the ball. I bet that little Deion move was rehearsed 3 years ago...

Not to take anything away from Carlos, but Kitna broke about three cardinal rules on that pass. He didn't step towards his target, he didn't go through his progression, and worst of all, he threw to the outside about two and a half seconds late.

Great play by Carlos, but on a throw that no NFL QB would ever make in a competitive game.

Or its a throw from a QB who has been harrassed all day. Having been already sacked a bunch and having to make throws under pressure.

I like to look at it as making the play that was there to make. We have been very critical of Rogers for not making the plays that we expect him to make. When he finally makes one, we are critical of the situation. I say nice job CR!!!

I'm glad Carlos got the pick and took it to the house as all of you are. But the reason I'm happy though is because I'm actually a fan of the guy and I've always been high on Rogers. I just like the fact that some of you have to eat crow now. Carlos has had a productive year so far. He's been good in coverage and he's been smacking people. Also many people haven't pointed out that he hasn't been picked on as much as Springs or Smoot. QBs rarely throw on the Rogers side, but since fans have been stuck on hating the guy, many of them don't want to acknowledge it. Great game Carlos! Keep it up so the rest of the haters can keep on eating crow!

I like Rogers too but I would not go as far as saying that QB's are shying away from him. I have always thought that Rogers was kind of forcing the plays and causing him to drop balls and if he just relaxed a little it would help.
