Who did it better: C.J. Mosley INT or Patrick Peterson INT? (Video)

We love highlighting great catches. But there’s something even more novel when they are delivered by defensive players.

In this edition of “Who did it better?” we present you two fairly incredible athletic displays by guys who are not supposed to be great at catching the ball. Well, one guy anyway.

The first terrific pick is from Baltimore Ravens linebacker C.J. Mosley, who dropped way back into coverage and snared the Blake Bortles pass with one hand. Watch, in the video above, this one-handed effort.

The second great INT comes from a player who should have good hands. After all, Patrick Peterson has had the ball in his hands a lot in his young NFL career. So it’s no shock he can track down the Tyrod Taylor pass over his shoulder all while staying inbounds on the sideline. Impressive concentration and body control.

You be the judge! Who did it better?
