Yes, there was a defender wrapped around his lower legs preventing completion of the throw.  This was obviously the reason for the poor pass. 

 

I was upset during the game with the RZ pick till I saw the replay. I think it should have been a roughing the passer call on Judon.

 

First a refresher on roughing the passer rules - particularly this simple one to protect QB's knees:

 

A rushing defender is prohibited from forcibly hitting in the knee area or below on a passer who has one or both feet on the ground, even if the initial contact is above the knee. It is not a foul if the defender is blocked (or fouled) into the passer and has no opportunity to avoid him.

 

 

Notes:

A defender cannot initiate a roll or lunge and forcibly hit the passer in the knee area or below, even if he is being contacted by another player.

 

 

#9 Judon coming free on the stunt.

Haven’t seen the reply but Live it looked like RTP but Josh really hasn’t been getting the calls since teams have reported him as a flopper but I think these types need to be called - plus judon is kind of dirty
