That didn't help either. How many of those deep balls could've been knocked down if the DB wasn't looking to time the jump and get up there for an INT. At least 3-4 of them came with good coverage where simply looking back to the football, staying with the receiver, and jamming your hand in between his would've been enough to get an incompletion. And on those 40+ yard throws what's the point in doing anything else? Even if you do get the INT it's basically like punting the ball away.
