Since '09 season, teams are 5/66 on Hail Mary attempts. 22 have been intercepted.

if it were a high percentage pass then they would throw them every play

The one that sticks out to me is the one Brett Favre threw to Greg Lewis against us a few years back. I'm not sure if that one qualifies, all though that's basically what it was.

I'm not a Brett Favre fan and I hated that game, but that was more than a hail mary. It's like an educated guess as opposed to a certainty. I do think Favre saw him and tried to get it there, but it was lucky Lewis got there, didn't step out, stop, or deflect the ball. I won't exaggerate it, I'll let others do that.

I think he means 23.

22 1/2

No, 23. But I'm glad the Packers didn't play well enough to avoid the zebras... or should I say the black and white painted horses?

How many of the 5 were by the Lions with Stafford? lol

not surprising the odds are low, but i'd still consider rushing four to prevent the throw. not all four would be linemen either, i'd use a LB or two, maybe one LB and one DB?

cause everyone knows the QB has to wait an extra 2 or 3 seconds.

also, IMO if Jennings had decided to bat it down, he could've.

Well, not this last one anyway. That was none other than our Shaun Hill. I turned on the TV when the ball was in the air, checked ESPN to see how many yards that gave Stafford only to find it wasn't him. That punt* looked pretty good, ducks can fly.

* Someone on our team when Hill was QB said he didn't catch the ball because it came down like a punt.
