If he had and it still came out, then, yes, it would have been a perfect defensive move and you couldn't blame Betts for it.

I agree to an extent, but it's hard to always do the right thing...he was getting grabbed and was twisted, so his arm came out. It happens to the best of them...it just happened at an inopportune time.

I thought about posting something like this, but I just can't get that rational about the Skins. I want them to win every game, even if, somehow, it hurts us. It's a mentality I want to see in them, I guess. The only exception would be resting starters in a game that has no impact, but even that I'm not crazy about.

I will never ever cheer for a loss, I was pissed when he fumbled. That was just the hindsight fan in me.
