As we talked about above, Manning took the blame for this INT. But, when you go back and look at the TV tape, Wayne doesn’t run the complete route. In a "Hi-Lo" concept, the "China," or "Smash," is a 5-7 yard square in. But, in this case, Wayne runs what essentially plays out like a Hitch Route — and the ball is thrown inside. Yes, Wayne could have converted his route when he saw the pressure and Porter playing in an "off-position," but Manning is throwing the China route in this case. Hard to blame just one player for the result, but they are not on the same page."

National Football Posts' Matt Bowen offers an excellent breakdown of Tracy Porter's fourth quarter pick six against the Colts in Super Bowl 44. Oh, and for the record, only schmucks, idiots, douchebags, men with penis envy, and haters blame Manning for the INT and the game.
