The RCB comes from 20+ yards away and catches the receiver from behind to prevent a TD. They marked it as a bad play against the corner when it was actually a great play on his part.

Agree. They have too few people to watch too many games at the detail level.
I take their numbers and combine them with several other sites and my own observation to come to a better understanding of each situation.
