Should a pass that bounces off of a WR be a fumble or a pick?

I was just thinking that the INT for Leavitt was in no way his fault, but it goes on his stat line.

Shouldn't a pick that is the result of a ball bouncing off of or out of the hands of a WR be something else, like a fumble?

The throw was behind the receiver, that was an interception.

Still a pick. He threw it behind the receiver. I’m not impressed with his passing. He needs polishing before he gets in SEC play.

It was a terrible throw. Absolutely his fault.

This whole “well it hit both of his hands” bs is low iq for people who can’t comprehend reaction time vs velocity.

Statistically, it cant be a fumble if there was no demonstrated possesion from the WR.

I always looked at it as taking the good with the bad. For instance, the QB gets a passing TD for a screen pass that goes 60 yards.
