Why did the NY Giants retain possession after the New Orleans interception by Darren Sharper I know there was a personal foul but it was after the ball left the quarterbacks hands?
The penalty was for roughing the passer and occurred while the ball was in the air. Therefore, the Giants still had possession of the ball since Sharper had not yet intercepted the pass. Because the Giants had possession when the penalty was committed, they kept possession regardless of the outcome of the play, which was a 70 yard return for a TD. Had there been a penalty after the interception, the Saints would have gotten possession of the ball.
