Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr vented about a call that "will blow my mind forever" following his team's 28-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. 

A perplexed Carr was seen arguing with a referee after he threw his second interception of the game. Carr wasn't just fuming about the lack of a defensive interference call. The official called an offensive pass interference on the play. 

"This is changing the outcome of a football game. That shouldn't happen," Carr told reporters. "That blows my mind. When things like that happen, I get kind of upset."

On the exact play late in the third quarter, Oakland receiver Ryan Grant was knocked off the trajectory of his route from a hit by Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu. Moments later the Chiefs' Charvarius Ward intercepted Carr. 

"The second interception will blow my mind forever," a perplexed Carr said. "It was offensive pass interference; they said he was blocking. So, I asked the man, I said, 'Sir, why would I throw him the ball if he was blocking?'

"And he didn't have an answer and just walked away. I don't know what to do in that sense. We got the coverage we want, we got the exact look we want, I'm throwing it to where I'm supposed to throw it, and they tackle our receiver — yet it's a penalty on us?"

Raiders coach John Gruden sided with his signal caller: "It was a slant pattern. I've never had an offensive pass interference called on a slant, but we did today, and that one worked against us as well."

Carr, who finished with 198 yards passing (23-for-38) to become the Raiders' all-time passing leader, had nowhere to complain about his first error, however. On the previous play, the veteran quarterback tossed another interception on fist-and-goal from the 1-yard line.
