was watching Dolphins-Cleveland game today and occurred to me that in GLB I don't think I've ever seen a ball get deflected then intercepted.

Can it happen in GLB or only in real-life?

It definitely happens. The problem in finding them is that it won't show as deflected.

You can even find ones in GLB where the d-line deflects it and then the ball is intercepted by a safety/corner/etc.

just a side tidbit... if the D-line registers a PD and then a DB either deflects or intercepts the ball... the final deflection/interception is all that shows up in the PBP. So keep that in mind... and the DT/DE won't get credit for the PD either.

yea, recall seeing that this past season. DT clearly got a PD, than there was an INT and all the pbp showed was the INT

Sometimes the replays don't show it properly, but when building INT CB's, getting the deflection is half the battle in getting the INT. Sometimes it's juts a pure INT... sometimes it seems like the WR and CB are both going for the ball and the CB gets the INT. But I remember a Q&A session where Bort and company mentioned something about the "deflect" roll coming BEFORE the INT-or-Catch roll could be made.

... -_-
If you don't sure, just don't post.
Deflection comes aftet int attempt, not brfore.
What Bort said is, aftet deflection, you have one more chance to int, though it's very difficult.
