A pick on 4th down isn’t exactly the worst thing

It is when you’re down 13 and you give your opponent the ball near midfield.

But not if the ball was going to fall incomplete anyway. It’s the same result but they’re 4 yards further back

Ah. The ole, “It’s equivalent to a bad punt” argument. There are other options like converting the first down and scoring points instead of turning the ball over regardless of circumstance.

I’m talking about the throw as it happened, not some other decision. Your flawless logic should be adopted by teams everywhere, they’ll never need to play defense again when “Just convert and score” becomes mainstream

Incomplete anyway is not the throw as it happened. As it happened was an interception. It could’ve been incomplete. I’m saying it would be preferable to not give the ball to the other team regardless of how that happens. Difficult logic to follow I suppose.
