The legendary Blue Angels were putting on a show in the Bay Area and decided to give the fans at O.co Coliseum something to cheer about by flying over the stadium. Crazily, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr a critical pick-six as that was going on above him.
Chris Harris Jr.'s 74-yard touchdown gave the Broncos a 16-7 lead with just less than seven minutes to play. The crazy thing is that many Raiders fans probably weren't aware their team had just been scored on until they stopped watching the Blue Angels and shifted their focus back to the field.
The flyover likely distracted many fans, and some Raiders fans believe the Blue Angels were the reason Carr threw the critical interception:
"@BlueAngels thank you guys for making raiders lose yesterday couldn't have picked a worse time to fly over!!!

On a related note, the Blue Angels did stop by a Raiders practice this week:
This pick-six turned out be too much for Oakland to overcome. The Raiders dropped to 2-3 on the season with the 16-10 loss.
