Bizarre Pickett record

According to ESPN, Pickett set an NFL record (most likely one of many to come) for attempting the most passes (13) without any hitting the ground (10 completions and 3 interceptions).

Pittsburgh Dad attributed the first two interceptions to surprise on the part of the receivers that the ball was thrown and hit their hands, without having to make extreme contortions. I thought that both Claypool and Muth had a good shot at those, even though the passes were not perfect (same for Mitch's interception to Johnson). You'd think at least one of those would be a spectacular catch, and a bit unlucky all three fell into the hands of a defender.

I drafted Pickett in my fantasy league on a whim as a backup. Think I should start him?

 

Pickett was also the first QB in the Superbowl era (1967) to run for multiple TD's in their first NFL game. He now has 2 NFL records despite only playing one half of football so far.
