Bill Belichick and Peyton Manning couldn’t overcome Derek Carr’s horrible interception

The New Orleans Saints received the opening kickoff from the Kansas City Chiefs in their Week 5 matchup Monday night football matchup. The Saints wasted no time moving into KC territory before quarterback Derek Carr threw what can only be defined as a YOLO interception by throwing the ball downfield as it disappeared off his back foot.

Facing pressure on first-and-10 from the Chiefs’ 39-yard line, Carr threw the ball high in the air near wide receiver Rashid Shaheed, who was in double coverage. Safety Bryan Cook made a spectacular one-handed interception, but he should never have had a chance because the ball should have been thrown out of bounds.

That’s a fact that both Peyton Manning and Bill Belichick agreed on during the ManningCast.

Peyton tried to give Carr a better call by saying “throw it away” and “get out of bounds” as the Saints quarterback threw it downfield. A few minutes later, Belichick joined the broadcast and called it a “terrible play by Carr who couldn’t get the ball out of bounds.”

“You know better than anyone,” Belichick continued. ‘If you throw it away, throw it away. Just throw it in the stands.”

Saints coach Dennis Allen probably agrees.
