Right. Despite a certain statement reportedly made by a certain member of the FED Rules Committee, the rule requires at least one of 2 elements for INT (assuming the B/R is out of the lane):
1. The B/R interferes with the throw.
2. The B/R interferes with the fielding of the throw.
If neither of these occurs, there is no INT.
N.B. If the B/R is between the two fielders (directly in the throwing lane), he is presumed to have interfered with any throw.
