That browns team wasn’t bad, very good defense with mccutchen and Jamir Miller who had 13.5 sacks think they went 7-9 that season but were held back from the offense
I usually get incompletions that are very clearly completions. Ball is in the receiver's hands, he's on the ground with the ball... "Oh just couldn't hold onto it." Uhhh... Am I living a different reality? I also have times the announcer says I scored a TD and then I have to go back out and score a TD...
I HAD to look this up. The answer...Charlie Batch. Detmer started the next game, but Batch took over halfway through that one. Didn't help much, they still finished 2-14(!)
What's crazy is, he didn't throw any picks until just before the 2 minute warning of the first half. So not only did he throw 7 interceptions in a game, he threw 5 in a half
DeAngelo Hall is tied for the record with a whole bunch of other players, like mjf2891 said. So, you can't give him sole credit for that record. He was just unfortunate that the Bears decided to bench Jay Cutler after his fourth INT. If Cutler had played longer, it's certainly possible Hall could have gotten his 5th, and record-breaking, INT.
So he threw his 1st pick with 2:10 left in the 1st half, and threw his 7th with 4:26 left in the game. Good lord, that’s 7 picks in less than 28 minutes of game time! 😳
The craziest part to me is that the first INT came right before the 2 minute warning in the first half. Another crazy thing is that the browns were only able to score 10 points off of 7 INT since they had 14 at time of first INT😂😂
Forget 7 interceptions in one game, that was a 7 interceptions in a total of less than one half! Also how the heck was this so close, the lions must have had an incredibly good defense
Uh... no. The Browns' offense was just that bad. This Lions team was so bad it only won 2 games in a 16 game season. The offense was bad, but the defense wasn't much better. The Browns had a good defense that year, but their offense was just as bad as Detroit's. Sure, their starting QB never threw 7 Ints in a game that year, but that's only because the Browns' coach wouldn't have let a QB play that long if he's tossing INTs left and right. He'd bench him and put in the backup.
Ty Detmer was never really given much of a chance in the league. Had he been a first round pick like he deserved to be and had a coaching staff committed to his success, he would have had a lot of success. He would have really shined in today's NFL.
Wow. I had never watched these "highlights" before, but I always assumed a few of the seven had to be just bad luck. Turns out, only that Hail Mary at the end of the half can be discounted. The rest were just awful decisions. Oh, Ty. Ty, Ty, Ty.
I think peterman was worse because he threw 5 ints in the FIRST HALF. Then they took him out for the game at halftime. Peterman was on pace for 10 interceptions that game! That’s more interception than the amount Mahomes threw ALL YEAR.
What makes this such a unique stat, is not that there aren't many quarterbacks bad enough to throw that many interceptions. It's just rare that those quarterbacks are able to stay in the game that long without being benched.
What makes this even worse is the fact that all of those picks except for the 3rd one were bad throws. The announcer said it best, "He's forcing the ball too much".
*Rolls out of pocket* *Looks at wide open running back* *Looks downfield* *Looks at wide open running back* *Throws downfield* *Picked off* The RB: 👁👄👁
0:48 the Browns linebacker pointing towards the endzone instead of blocking the tackler who runs right by him is maybe the dumbest thing I've ever seen on a football field
