There is a problem with the latest build with interceptions in played games and David is aware of it.  Was this a played game vs a quick sim?  I have seen this happen in several test played games, the defense interecepts, but it is instead recorded as a complete pass for the defensive team, and is not recorded an interception.

Played game CPU vs. CPU league game

By the way, this game is great!!! I am posting these issues not to trash the game but to help make it better.
I started a new league with six teams and will eventually expand the league one team at a time. It's fun to see injuries affect the team and also try to determine if a team is or is not performing well due to play design or player skill.

Thank you for the positive remarks, and thank you for posting these.  Feedback is not only encouraged, it is essential for development.

The development team will almost always be a few builds ahead of the public release, so from time to time we will reply that some issues are already known or have already been fixed.  This is often valid for follow-on bugs that are in just one or two builds.  These happen when code that is changed in one area affects other code. Some of these we catch quickly, and some of them we do not notice right away, and public input helps to catch those.

So please keep posting, because it is helpful and appreciated.  Just note that we may already be working on resolving some issues that may be posted.

By any chance do (did) any of these negative yard plays cross centre field? By that I mean was the ball passed from one side of centre field and intercepted on the other side of centre field?

Sorry David, I don't know.

Just had the interseption bug. And it did occur with a pass across the 50. The qb on the defensive team got credit for a completion,td and 58yds. The pass was from the offensive teams 42 yardline.

Okay.. that's helpful as it helps validate my thoughts on what could be causing it. It's probably a simple bug to fix, the problem is reproducing it. Once I can find the pattern, it's pretty quick to track down the actual fault.
