Tim Walz committed a fumble on Sunday.

The Minnesota governor, a former high school defensive line coach, was widely mocked for misusing a common football term after live-streaming himself playing video games.

Walz played the latest edition of the Madden video game series on Twitch with Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., in an effort to appeal to young male voters just days before the election. During the contest, both Democrats urged voters to support Vice President Kamala Harris’ bid for the White House.

Then Walz, wearing a camouflage Minnesota Vikings cap, posted on X that Ocasio-Cortez “could make a mean pick 6,” meaning a defender returns an interception for a touchdown.

“And we both know that if you take the time to build a playbook, you’re going to use it,” Walz also wrote.

The post was later deleted, but critics quickly caught up.

Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio noted the difference between a pick 6 and offensive plays.

“You don’t run a pick-six, you run the West Coast offense or the spread offense,” Vance said at a campaign rally. “It made me realize that even though they say Tim Walz was a football coach, I think I know more about football than Tim Walz does. And that’s appropriate because I think my running mate, Donald J. Trump, knows more about working at McDonald’s.

“AOC can make a mean choice – and I can make an audible noise at a play. And they wonder why they can’t get men to vote for this ticket,” one X user wrote.

“Tampon Tim is such a loser. You’d think a so-called football coach would be aware that you don’t have a pick 6!” wrote the Trump campaign’s “War Room” account.

“Are we sure Tim Walz has ever seen a football game, let alone coached a team?” another user wrote.

“I’m not sure Kamala ever worked at McDonald’s and now I’m not sure Walz ever coached football.” wrote another.
