    When KC threw the INT to the D-Lineman, I'm sure some of you thought to yourself that it looked familiar. The weird part is that it is this specific INT that led to VY's meltdown.

    Nice job. You are the #1 source for video comparisons lol. But yea I don't kerry was booed because it was preseason. Vince did it in the reg. season so i guess its diff. I didn't boo him i was shocked that it was intercepted. But others have there own reasons.

    The only thing that angers me is that on Kerry's int, the announcers were saying great play by the linemen. On vys, they said he gave it right back.

    Great plays by both defense but both were bad choices by both KC and VY.

    KC just had a bad game, it happens to everyone and most fans would understand that and not boo him for 2 picks. VY was booed because he could not do anything right to save his life in those games and it became a reoccurring theme.

    Hopefully KC will work on his vision downfield and VY will keep up the good work from Saturday's game.

    If that was just a freak play, then people wouldn't have said much. But since VY was already notorious for not being able to complete a 5 yard pass- he was more criticized. Naturally.

    Both were simply great plays by the linemen. But with VY it was a reoccurring theme. You cringed any time he didn't hand the ball off.

    I've thought about that a little. I really think the booing didn't have much to do with the 2007 season, and was more just about the specific home opener against the Jags in 2008.

    Our defense was playing extremely solid. We had 5 offensive possessions in a row where we only had 3 first downs. The offense was looking abysmal and keeping our defense on the field. All the while we are barely maintaining a 3 point lead. Then on the 6th possession, Vince comes in and throws a bad pick first play of the possession. There is where the boo's come.

    I think we fans were particularly frustrated to see the defense play hard and do so well, to see the offense continue to sputter and not help out the D. Then a bad turnover that gave the Jags good field position, that was the straw that broke the camel's back.

    I hope Vince watched that INT he threw 100X, because there is no reason to throw a 1-yard pass into the flats with 3+ linebackers waiting to clean up the receiver when he had zero pressure.

    They're really not that similar. In Kerry's int, the lineman drops back into the trowing lane as the ball comes out of Kerry's hand. He jumps, bats the ball to himself and catches it while on his back. In Vince's int, the lineman is standing in the throwing lane and simply raises his hands to snatch the ball out of the air. Actually, he doesn't have to make much of an athletic move because the ball is thrown to his right side just above his shoulder.

    Nice try, though.
