The interception wasn't late or short. It should have been throw a few more feet to the right and ahead of the receiver. It was too close to the receiver, and the defender caught up to it.
That is the definition of short counselor.....I agree that it was not late.
Well if it was thrown a fraction of a second earlier to the same spot it wouldn't have been short, since the receiver wouldn't have been as far down field, so it was late/short
The receiver was running a post, and was coming across the field a bit. There was no defender in the direction he was running, i.e. no safety help. The ball could have been thrown more to the right, or deeper, but throwing more to the right would have allowed the receiver to adjust to it and stay separated from the defender. It wasn't thrown late in the least; it could have been thrown later. It just wasn't a perfect throw.
