When his first couple of reads weren't there, he should've chucked it out of bounds around his nearest receiver. The announcers mentioned it as well. After waiting too long to get rid of the ball, it would've been best to just take the safety. Poor situational awareness. In his defense, he was under duress most of the game, and clearly flustered.
Yes, again, I'm not saying the pick six was AJ's "fault", but his inability to do what he's paid to do on the previous play put his team in that situation for Kyler to make a horrendous decision. The Cardinals weren't going to win that game last night no matter what AJ Green did, but that was one he should've had.
