I think so . I don't think there is any stat that captures the guy that had the ball but lost it so the QB "threw another interception"
Now the other 2 interceptions looked like badly thrown balls

Same thing happened in the Indy-Tennessee game. Nick Harper wrestled the ball away from Mason in the end-zone and it was an INT.
The ruling is that the player didn't have sole control of the ball, so it is still live, and hence it's a pick. It's the same if the players started playing volleyball with the ball after a pass.
Oh, and Peyton broke another record last night. Most consecutive games with more TDs than picks. |
Well they can't call it a fumble since to fumble I believe you must have had control of the ball and any acknowledgent of control would mean it was a reception and TD. I thought that Drive had the ball but I believe you msut still have it when you touch down in the endzone to get the TD

Terrell Owens had a broken bone in his leg, requiring a pin.
Out at least a month:
quote: Owens out for regular season, could miss playoffs
By DAN GELSTON, AP Sports Writer
December 20, 2004
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Eagles star receiver Terrell Owens will miss the rest of the regular season and possibly the playoffs and Super Bowl because of a sprained right ankle.
Owens will have surgery Wednesday and stands only an outside shot at being able to play in the NFL's championship game on Feb. 6 -- if Philadelphia makes it that far -- head trainer Rick Burkholder said.
Owens, who has 77 catches for 1,120 yards and a team-record 14 touchdowns, also has a fracture a few inches below his knee. But Burkholder still didn't rule out the chance that Owens would be able to run in five weeks -- the weekend of the NFC title game.
``There's a lot of hurdles that have to be taken on before he can ever get to that point,'' Burkholder said.
``The scenario I painted is the best-case scenario, but it is realistic,'' he said.
Owens was hurt on the second play of the third quarter of Philadelphia's win over Dallas on Sunday when he was dragged down from behind by Roy Williams on a 20-yard reception. Owens immediately grabbed the back of his leg, which was bent backward, but left the field on his own power.
The Eagles went on to win 12-7 and clinched home-field advantage through the NFC playoffs.
Tests revealed a high ankle sprain. A screw will be implanted to stabilize and strengthen the ankle joint.
Burkholder said the fracture is not as serious, and will be allowed to heal on its own.
``He's a great player, but can the offense go on? Absolutely,'' coach Andy Reid said Monday. ``We have some pretty good players on this offensive unit, so it'll still function and do very well this week.''
Owens has missed just seven games in his nine-year career. Acquired in an offseason trade, he has provided a spark to an offense that often stagnated late in the season -- even though Philadelphia made the NFC championship game the last three years without him.
Philadelphia plays next Monday night at St. Louis and finish the season on Jan. 2 at home against Cincinnati. Philadelphia will open the playoffs Jan. 15 or 16.
The Eagles' other starting wide receiver, Todd Pinkston, hurt his knee against the Cowboys and Reid said he was walking with a limp Monday.
Without Owens, the Eagles will be left with basically the same lackluster receiving corps that has disappeared when needed in the title games. Freddie Mitchell or Greg Lewis could join Pinkston as the other starting wideout. Those three have a combined 60 catches for 1,073 yards.
Reid said the Eagles will activate wide receiver Billy McMullen.
``It will be an opportunity for some young guys to play,'' Reid said.
In two playoff games last year, the Eagles had one touchdown catch from a wide receiver.
None of the wide receivers caught a pass in the second half of the Eagles' 12-7 win over the Cowboys.
The Eagles have already set a franchise record for regular-season victories. They've finished first in the conference three straight years, but couldn't take advantage of playing at home in the last two NFC championship games, losing to Tampa Bay and Carolina. The Eagles also lost in the NFC title game in 2002, in St. Louis. |
ACK!

I'm still thinking Philly will make it. Even without Terrell Owens.
Now, but I wasn't expecting Miami to just make that score against the Patriots just now. Nice.
