Dud: Garoppolo’s two interceptions

Cary Edmondson-USA TODAY Sports

Garoppolo’s two interceptions had a chance to be killers with both occurring inside Arizona’s 25-yard-line. The first came in the third quarter on a pass intended for Emmanuel Sanders, but Garoppolo didn’t see linebacker Jordan Hicks who was in the line of the throw from the snap. His second interception wasn’t as egregious as the first, but the timing was worse and almost ended the chance of completing the comeback. Garoppolo threw behind tight end Ross Dwelley, who barley got his hands on it. The ball deflected into the hands of rookie safety Jalen Thompson with 4:41 remaining in the game.
