The weekend NFL slate is in the early going, but there is a clubhouse leader for the “throw of the week.” Sure, it went for just 16 yards and a first down, but it might be hard to top this play from Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray:

This is not how you coach the quarterback position, but here Murray retreats under pressure and makes a late throw to tight end Dan Arnold to move the chains on third down.
This is, as it was called in the booth by the broadcast team, “crazy.”
