Saints' Ken Crawley shows off improved instincts with game-changing interception

LONDON -- Ken Crawley had a feeling there were two options on the play.

When the New Orleans Saints cornerback saw tight end Julius Thomas lined up across from him with just 4 yards between the Miami Dolphins and the goal line, Crawley figured he was about to defend a slant or a fade.

Crawley asked defensive end Alex Okafor to raise his hands on the play to help with a slant, and that request also gave the cornerback a chance to focus on the potential fade.

Dolphins quarterback Jay Cutler threw the ball to the corner of the end zone, hoping Thomas could use his size to beat Crawley.
