When should a defensive player at
tempt to intercept a forward pass,
and when should he let it be ground
ed or bet it down?
Answered by
GLEN WARNER
Football coach, University of Pitts
burgh for the past s years. Teams
indicated 5 of 8 years. Former
Athletic Director Carlisle Indians.
Successful coach for % years.
A forward pass should never be
intercepted or caught by a defensive
player upon fourth down, because
by letting it be grounded or batting
it down the pass becomes incom-
plete and the offensive side loses the
ball on downs at the spot where the
ball was put into play. There is an
exception where the pass is we'll out
to the side and the defensive player
who has an opportunity to intercept
1t is pretty sure he can get away for
a long run.
A defensive player should not try
to catch a forward pass when an
offensive player has an equal or
nearly equal chance to catch 1t, be-
cause it is much easier and safer to
bat the ball out of reach of the OPP
ponent.
