When was the last the we got an interception on defense?

It seriously feels like it was 3 seasons ago

I started a thread years ago how it seemed like we dropped interceptions every game, last Monday it was Roman Harper's turn

From that 5 year old thread

Roman Harper had a great game, but good lord man you have to make that catch!!

When the ball is deflected it seems to fall in the one spot on the field where no one can get it.

Beyond frustrating

It reminds me of Starship Troopers when Neil Patrick Harris' character says,

"Statistically, you should have accidentally got one by now"
 
I see other teams get "fluke" interceptions and it's frustrating that we rarely even get those.
 
poor Roman Harper is the non-catchingest DB I've ever seen. I can picture a montage of him from his personal life dropping everything that people toss at him (car keys, beer cans, babies...).
 
What's sad is A future HOF QB on team who is in top 5 on Interception % has thrown more than defense can get.

Harper should have had one against Atlanta..deflected right to his chest where he dropped it..do we even practice tip drills??
