What is the sequence of this....
I always thought...first roll to see if it is an accurate pass and possible fumble....
Then roll the interception...
Then roll the catch...
our league has changed it to
interception, pass and catch....because several coaches burned a re-roll on the pass only to have it intercepted.... |

Pass... to see if the pass is actually on the way down the field. (Reroll if needed to)
Interception, to see if the ball gets all the way to the reciver or not. (not team reroll, but a Catch reroll possible)
Catch... if not intercepted...again possible use of reroll. |

Hey it happens just because it was intercepted doesn't mean the thrower didn't try his best to get it on target!  |

The LRB rules are pretty clear. The correct order is Interception roll, Pass Roll, Catch roll. All your league did is change it to match the LRB.
Page 22 of the LRB:
"The coach must declare that one of his players will try to
intercept before the thrower rolls to see if he is on target."
AND
"If the final modified score is less than the required total,
then the player fails to intercept the ball and the pass
can carry on as normal."
Translated to make sure ... Pass is declared, interceptor trying to do so is declared, roll for interception, success = turnover, failure = make the Pass Roll.
BEFORE anyone says this doesn't make sense. This is a game mechanic. It is delibrately in this order so that interceptions have a better chance to occur. Don't like it house rule it. The BBRC, Jervis, and Andy have made it VERY clear that this order will not be changed so crusading for such is a lost cause. Just making this clear before anyone gets great beliefs that they can fix what they perceive as an injustice.
