News

  • Tops 300 yards

    Carr completed 26 of 44 passes for 303 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 24-22 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Carr benefitted from game script and was forced to take to the air 44 times as the Raiders attempted to work back from a multi-score deficit. He spread targets around for the most part evenly to his pass catchers, though he showed surprising rapport with Mack Hollins -- highlighted by a nine-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter. Carr has at least 250 passing yards and two touchdowns in all three games this season, providing a relatively safe fantasy floor.

  • Modestly productive

    Carr completed 24 of 39 pass attempts for 251 yards and two touchdowns in an overtime loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Analysis: Carr could have done better against this vulnerable pass defense, but disappointing or not, the box score should be fine for most fantasy investors. The problem is Carr's Week 3 matchup with the Titans might feature a more fundamentally sound defense, and if Carr can't tighten things up, he might find that a challenging matchup. The good news is the Raiders improved their pass blocking a bit in Week 2, allowing just five hits and one sack on Carr.

  • Throws three picks Sunday

    Carr completed 22 of 37 pass attempts for 295 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in a loss against the Chargers on Sunday.

    Analysis: The Chargers defense clobbered Carr all day, sacking him six times and hitting him nine times even though the Raiders weren't really attacking all that far downfield. Carr was perhaps overly dependent on Davante Adams, who claimed 17 of Carr's 35 targeted passes, and second-leading pass catcher Darren Waller (four catches for 79 yards on six targets) didn't do much until the fourth quarter. Carr and the Raiders will face Arizona in Week 2.

  • Not dressed for Saturday's game

    Carr and many other Raiders starters aren't in uniform for Saturday's preseason game against Miami, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Carr and Davante Adams are among the players not in uniform, sitting out for a third straight week.

  • Misses HOF Game

    Carr sat out Thursday's Hall of Fame Game win against the Jaguars, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: As did a number of Carr's top options in the passing attack, namely wide receivers Davante Adams and Hunter Renfrow and tight end Darren Waller (undisclosed). In particular, the waiting game for the first Carr-Adams connection since 2013 at Fresno State will have to wait until Sunday, Aug. 14 versus the Vikings, at the earliest.

  • Minimal or no use Thursday

    Carr is among the Raiders' key players who figure to play sparingly, if at all, in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game against the Jaguars, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: With the Raiders slated to play three more preseason games after the Hall of Fame Game, it seems likely that the team will take it easy on a number of the team's key cogs versus Jacksonville. With that in mind, look for Jarrett Stidham and Nick Mullens to see their share of QB snaps Thursday, with rookie Chase Garbers a candidate to mix in.

  • Secures three-year extension

    Carr agreed Wednesday with the Raiders on a three-year, $121.5 million contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Raiders now have both Carr and new top wideout Davante Adams locked in for the foreseeable future. Per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Carr's extension also includes a no-trade clause. The deal gives Las Vegas some long-term stability on offense, which features an aerial attack anchored by Carr and top targets Adams and Darren Waller, who is under contract through 2023. The team's willingness to both commit to Carr and build around him could provide fantasy managers -- especially those in…read more

  • Extension situation uncertain

    Coach Josh McDaniels said Monday the Raiders are "trying to build around" Carr but spoke vaguely about a potential contract extension for the starting quarterback, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McDaniels' comments come less than two weeks after Tafur's report that initial discussions between Carr and Las Vegas regarding an extension had begun. Earlier this month, McDaniels confirmed that Carr will enter the 2022 campaign as the Raiders' starting quarterback, and the team since has added a new No. 1 wide receiver to the offensive arsenal in the form of Davante Adams. Despite significant moves to bolster the roster, though, McDaniel's statement that the signal-caller is "going to have…read more

  • New target in Adams

    Carr gained a new target Thursday when the Raiders agreed to trade for Davante Adams of the Packers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Carr and Adams have familiarity from the 2012 and 2013 seasons at Fresno State, when the latter racked up a whopping 233 catches, 3,031 yards and 38 touchdowns. After eight years apart in which Adams has developed into one of the NFL's top wide receivers, Carr will have the long-coveted No. 1 WR as a member of the Raiders. Following this transaction, Carr currently has WRs Adams, Hunter Renfrow and Bryan Edwards, TEs Darren Waller and Foster Moreau and RBs Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake (ankle) and…read more

  • Will 'absolutely' remain starter

    New Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels said Wednesday that Carr will "absolutely" be the team's starting quarterback Week 1 of the 2022 campaign, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Carr appeared in all 17 games for the Raiders last season and finished with a career-high 4,804 passing yards to go with 23 touchdowns and 14 interceptions while completing 68 percent of his passes. McDaniels, an offensive-minded coach, believes he can get the most out of the veteran quarterback, who has become slightly more efficient over his last four seasons.

  • Inefficient in playoff loss

    Carr completed 29 of 54 pass attempts for 310 yards, one touchdown and one interception while running for 20 yards on one carry against Cincinnati on Saturday.

    Analysis: Carr has a history of struggles in colder conditions like these, so it's unsurprising that he got by more on volume than efficiency in this game. The unusually high pass attempt volume can't always be counted on, so it could have gone a lot worse for Carr's fantasy investors. While he'll never compete for elite distinction at quarterback, it's impressive that this year marked the eighth with Carr starting at quarterback for the Raiders, and the last three years in particular have marked a…read more

  • Manages team to victory

    Carr completed 20 of 36 pass attempts for 186 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 35-32 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: It wasn't Carr's finest performance, but he made the necessary throws on the back of a strong rushing performance by Josh Jacobs (26-132-1) to secure the win and a playoff berth for the Raiders. It was a voluminous regular season for the veteran, as he set new career highs in completions (428) and passing yards (4,804). The 30-year-old's 23:19 TD:TO ratio is what held him back from truly taking that next step in fantasy circles. Carr may be asked to shoulder more of the offensive load in a…read more

  • Leads game-winning drive

    Carr completed 24 of 31 passes for 255 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Carr led the Raiders on the game-winning drive, accounting for 51 passing yards to get the team into field-goal range. He focused in on Zay Jones and Hunter Renfrow as his primary targets throughout the contest, with the former serving as a big-play threat and the latter as a security blanket primarily in the short areas of the field. Carr was also uncharacteristically susceptible to mistakes, as he threw multiple interceptions in a game for only the second time on the campaign. However, he's…read more

  • Not bothered by ribs

    Carr (ribs) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.

    Analysis: Interim head coach Rich Bisaccia said Monday that Carr was dealing with some rib soreness following last week's win over the Broncos, but the Raiders never had much concern about the quarterback missing time. Carr's ability to take every rep in the Raiders' first Week 17 practice puts to rest any questions about his availability for Sunday's game against the Colts.

  • Tending to sore ribs

    Raiders interim head coach Rich Bisaccia clarified that Carr is dealing with sore ribs in the aftermath of Sunday's 17-13 win over the Broncos, but the injury isn't expected to affect the quarterback's availability for a Week 17 matchup with the Colts, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Bisaccia noted that Carr feels the injury the most when he coughs, but the 30-year-old sounds like he'll otherwise be uninhibited while practicing and playing. The Raiders still could look to ease Carr along slowly this week with a limited workout Wednesday and/or Thursday, but the historically durable signal-caller appears at little to no risk of sitting out Week 17, especially with Las Vegas in the thick of playoff contention.

  • Leads second-half comeback

    Carr completed 20 of 25 passes for 201 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: It wasn't a particularly productive performance for Carr, but it was an efficient one, and he led the Raiders on two second-half scoring drives to overcome a 13-7 halftime deficit. The 30-year-old QB has failed to toss multiple TDs in six straight games, managing only a 5:4 TD:INT over that stretch, but he's doing enough to keep his team in the playoff picture heading into a Week 17 clash with the Colts.

  • Tosses TD, sets up game-winning FG

    Carr completed 25 of 38 passes for 236 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Monday's 16-14 win over the Browns. He added seven rushing yards on three attempts and fumbled twice, losing one.

    Analysis: Vegas' struggling defense stepped up in this one, as the Raiders took a 10-0 lead into halftime thanks to Carr's five-yard, first-quarter touchdown toss to Bryan Edwards. Carr then let the Browns back into the game when he fumbled on a third-quarter sack. He looked to be in pain at the end of the play as his leg was put in an awkward position, but Carr was able to continue. Cleveland cashed in on the short field after his fumble in the third and scored again in the fourth to take the lead with…read more

  • Raiders-Browns moved to Monday

    Carr and the Raiders will no longer play the Browns on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.

    Analysis: Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Assuming the Week 15 game is played Monday as planned, Carr and Las Vegas will face a quick turnaround for the team's Week 16 contest versus the Broncos, which is still expected to be played Sunday, Dec. 26 as scheduled.

  • Two turnovers in loss

    Carr completed 33 of 45 passes for 263 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Carr failed to get the Raiders offense moving while the game remained competitive. He led a scoring drive to close the first half, though the field goal made the score 35-3. His lone touchdown came on the first possession of the second half, when he found Hunter Renfrow for a four-yard score. Otherwise, Carr was largely unimpressive as he managed only 5.8 yards per attempt, and he also lost a fumble when he was sacked early in the third quarter.

  • Held in check Sunday

    Carr completed 28 of 38 passes for 249 yards in Sunday's 17-15 loss to Washington.

    Analysis: While it was a reasonably efficient performance, Carr failed to throw a TD for only the second time all season, and his passing yardage total was also his lowest since that Week 5 dud. The veteran quarterback struggled with a lack of reliable targets -- Hunter Renfrow and Josh Jacobs combined to haul in 18 of his completions -- and that's an issue that isn't likely to improve much in Week 14 against Kansas City.

  • Big yardage in Big D

    Carr completed 24 of 39 passes for 373 yards and a touchdown in a 36-33 overtime win over the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. He also gained 11 yards on two carries.

    Analysis: It was a wild day in Dallas as Carr and Dak Prescott combined for nearly 750 passing yards, but the Raiders QB came out on top with an eight-play drive in the extra frame after the Cowboys went three-and-out on their only possession of OT. It's the sixth time in 11 games Carr has topped 300 yards, with Thursday's total marking his best effort since Week 3. He also didn't throw an interception for the first time since Week 6. The 30-year-old will look to carry that momentum into a Week 13 clash…read more

  • Tough day in loss to Bengals

    Carr completed 19 of 27 passes for 215 yards and one touchdown with one interception in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: The 27 attempts tied for his season low, as the Raiders' defense couldn't contain Cincy's running game and get the ball back to its offense. Carr has been picked off in four straight games, compiling a 6:5 TD:INT over that stretch, and he may need to be sharper than that if Las Vegas is going to snap a three-game losing streak in a Thanksgiving Day clash with the Cowboys.

  • Modest effort in blowout loss

    Carr completed 25 of 35 pass attempts for 261 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 41-14 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Carr turned in a decent performance when you consider the Raiders lacked any semblance of a running game (running backs combined for 32 yards on 11 carries). The game got out of hand in the second half, and the Chiefs' secondary focused on shutting down any deep routes. The veteran quarterback connected with his new deep threat, DeSean Jackson, on a 38-yard bomb, but the wideout ended up fumbling at the end of the play, causing a shift in momentum that Las Vegas never recovered from.

    Carr completed 30 of his 46 passes for 296 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Giants. He also ran twice for five yards and lost a fumble.

    Analysis: Carr took to the air more than 40 times for the third time this season, though production didn't follow. He was picked off twice -- one of which was returned for a touchdown -- and he also lost a fumble on a potential game-tying drive with 44 seconds left in the fourth quarter. Carr also failed to record multiple touchdowns for only the second time this season despite the multitude of opportunities to produce.

  • Nearly perfect in Week 7 win

    Carr completed 31 of 34 passes for 323 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: The Raiders' first drive of the day ended in the red zone on a pick that deflected off Jalen Richard's hands, but Carr was basically perfect the rest of the way, hitting Foster Moreau in the second quarter for a score and Bryan Edwards in the third. The quarterback has thrown for more than 300 yards and two TDs in five of seven games to begin the season heading into Las Vegas' Week 8 bye.

    Carr completed 18 of 27 pass attempts for 341 yards and two touchdowns against Denver on Sunday.

    Analysis: After averaging less than six yards per pass over the prior two weeks, Carr found a way to get the ball downfield even against a tough Broncos defense in Denver. A 48-yard touchdown strike to Henry Ruggs set the tone in the first quarter, and Bryan Edwards provided a 51-yard reception later. The big plays propelled a strong box score for Carr despite the low pass-attempt volume. He should attempt more passes in upcoming games, so he'll hope to maintain the explosiveness he showed against Denver…read more

  • Second consecutive subdued effort

    Carr completed 22 of 35 passes for 206 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in the Raiders' 20-9 loss to the Bears on Sunday. He also rushed three times for 10 yards and hurt his neck "a little bit" according to head coach Jon Gruden, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: After a three-game stretch to open the season during which he put up an NFL-high amount of passing yardage, Carr generated a pedestrian total for the second straight game. The Raiders' offense was listless as a whole against what was considered an inferior opponent coming in, and the veteran signal-caller didn't connect for more than 56 yards with any one of his pass catchers. Carr's neck issue doesn't sound overly serious as per Gruden's description, but that will certainly be something to…read more

    Carr completed 21 of 34 passes for 196 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Monday night's 28-14 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Carr was under pressure early and the Raiders offense as a whole struggled in the first half, failing to score while going down 21 points. The signal-caller responded in the third quarter, hitting Hunter Renfrow and Darren Waller on third-down touchdown passes to pull Las Vegas within one score. The rally fell short when Carr was intercepted in the fourth, closing out his least impressive performance this season. He's thrown two touchdowns in each outing thus far, but Carr will strive to move…read more

    Carr completed 26 of 43 passes for 386 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 31-28 overtime win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: He also lost two yards on two carries. Carr's hot start to the season continues, as he's thrown for more than 380 yards in three straight games with a 6:2 TD:INT, and it's no coincidence Las Vegas also is 3-0. His TD passes in this one went to Alec Ingold in the second quarter and Hunter Renfrow in the third, and Carr also led the Raiders on two scoring drives in OT as the teams traded field goals on their initial possessions before Vegas finally won it.

  • Starts week with full practice

    Carr (ankle) was a full practice participant Wednesday and should be ready for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Miami, on the other hand, will be turning to backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett while Tua Tagovailoa recovers from fractured ribs. The Raiders had better luck, with Carr apparently getting good news from his MRI on Monday. The team normally has a competent backup in Marcus Mariota, but he'll be on injured reserve with a quad injury for at least two more weeks, leaving only Nathan Peterman behind Carr.

  • Status up in air for Week 3

    Carr underwent an MRI on his ankle Monday and is uncertain for Week 3's matchup against the Dolphins, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: Coach Jon Gruden called Carr "questionable" but also said, "I think he's going to be able to play." Carr spent some time on the ground after taking a hard hit during Sunday's 26-17 win over the Steelers, but he managed to stay in the game and lead Las Vegas to a second straight win, which could bode well for his chances of avoiding any missed time. With Marcus Mariota (quadriceps) on IR, Nathan Peterman would stand to enter the starting lineup if Carr is forced to spend time on the sideline.

  • Torches Steelers in win

    Carr completed 28 of his 37 pass attempts for 382 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's Week 2 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: Carr took advantage of a shorthanded Steelers' defense to connect on five passes of 20 or more yards. He showed particular rapport with Henry Ruggs downfield, highlighted by a 61-yard touchdown and a 30-yard pass that set up another score on the following play. Though often regarded as a game manager, Carr has powered an explosive Raiders' offense through two weeks as he's combined to record 817 passing yards and four touchdowns as opposed to only one interception.

However, they ultimately got on track, with Waller catching 10 of his whopping 19 targets for 105 yards and a touchdown.

  • Giving way to Peterman on Sunday

    Carr's teammate, Nathan Peterman, is slated to start Sunday's preseason finale against the 49ers, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The report notes that with Marcus Mariota managing a quad issue and the team preferring not to expose him to game contact due to his playing style, coach Jon Gruden says that Peterman "will start and Peterman will finish, until I get better information." Based on that comment, the Raiders have no plans to put Carr in harm's way this weekend, with his next game appearance destined to occur Sept. 13, when Las Vegas hosts Baltimore in a Monday Night Football matchup.

    Analysis: Carr also sat out the team's first exhibition game, with Nathan Peterman the only quarterback to play in that contest. Peterman also is starting Saturday's tilt against the Rams and once again could be in for a heavy workload.

  • Entering make-or-break year

    Carr may be facing a make-or-break season in 2021, with the Raiders likely to consider a change at quarterback if they miss the playoffs again, Tashan Reed and Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Rumors percolated this offseason regarding the Raiders' desire to seek a replacement under center, despite Carr's career highs for passing yards (4,103) and yards per attempt (7.9) in 2020. The team finished 10th in points scored and 30th in points allowed, so it was no surprise to see the front office ultimately make addressing the defense more of a priority. Carr is back as the starter, but he doesn't have any guarantees remaining on a contract that runs through 2022, and backup Marcus…read more

  • Could go on trade block

    The Raiders could field trade offers for Carr this offseason, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Analysis: Carr finished 2020 with career highs for passing yards (4,103), yards per attempt (7.94), passer rating (101.4) and QBR (71.0), leading an offense that ranked 10th in points per game (27.1) and tied for seventh in points per drive (2.5). He's undoubtedly a starting-caliber quarterback, but that won't necessarily stop the Raiders from pursuing an upgrade, which in this case might mean Deshaun Watson. Carr has a reasonable contract with $39.5 million (none guaranteed) due over the next two…read more

  • Big effort in Week 17

    Carr completed 24 of 38 passes for 371 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 32-31 win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old finished the season on a very impressive run, topping 300 yards in four of his last five starts (and not getting a chance to reach the mark in the fifth due to a second-quarter groin injury). Carr compiled his third consecutive 4,000-yard campaign as a result while setting a new career high with 4,103, and while the Raiders could get out of the final two seasons on his current contract fairly easily, his big final month makes it almost certain he'll be back under center for Las…read more

    Carr completed 21 of 34 pass attempts for 336 yards, throwing one touchdown and no interceptions while adding a rushing score and minus-two yards on a pair of carries during Saturday's 26-25 loss to Miami.

    Analysis: The three-time Pro Bowler fought through a groin injury sustained during last Thursday's overtime loss to the Chargers to remain without a missed start on the season. Carr helped lead the Raiders to a would-be game-winning field goal in the final 20 seconds of regulation Saturday by way of a seven-play, 71-yard drive. However, Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Dolphins were able to respond with a field goal-yielding possession of their own to secure the Week 16 win. Carr carries a 25:7 TD:INT into the…read more

The quarterback's ability to take some reps in the team's first practice of the week can be taken as a positive sign, but head coach Jon Gruden was unwilling to rule on Carr's status for Saturday this early in the week.

    Carr is expected to face a 10-to-14-day recovery timeline after suffering a "significant groin injury" Thursday in the Raiders' 30-27 overtime loss to the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The Raiders will have from a longer turnaround for their Week 16 game, but given the timeline provided by Rapoport, Carr looks hard-pressed to make it back for the team's Dec. 26 matchup with the Dolphins. That said, Carr will likely do everything in his power to try and play through the painful injury, so his status will need to be monitored next week when the Raiders reconvene for practice. At this stage, Marcus Mariota is a likelier candidate than Carr for the Week 16 starting nod.

    Analysis: That would seem to rule out a worst-case scenario for Carr, who pulled up awkwardly early in the first half due to a non-contact groin injury. Marcus Mariota filled in admirably in emergency duty, throwing for 226 yards with a touchdown while also setting a franchise record at the QB position with 88 rushing yards and another TD. However, Mariota also threw a gut-wrenching interception near the Chargers' end zone with less than two minutes on the clock. Carr will benefit from a few extra days…read more

    Analysis: Carr was ruled out just as the second quarter began, which paves the way for Marcus Mariota to conclude Thursday's contest under center. He only had a chance to complete three of five passes for 53 yards before being forced out with a non-contact groin injury.

    Analysis: Carr completed an impressive 69 percent of his passes and delivered his third-best yardage total of the season against an excellent Colts defense. He connected on touchdown passes to Foster Moreau and Nelson Agholor before adding a rushing score of his own, but his interception before halftime led to a field goal, and his pick-six in the fourth quarter all but guaranteed his team the loss.

    Analysis: Carr was intercepted on Vegas' first drive but bounced back with touchdowns of nine and 38 yards to Darren Waller to take a 17-13 lead into the locker room. The quarterback took matters into his own hands with a two-yard rushing score for a 24-13 lead in the third quarter, but the Jets took over from there and had Vegas on the ropes until Carr dropped in the game-winning 46-yard touchdown to Henry Ruggs with five seconds left.

    Carr completed 22 of 34 pass attempts for 215 yards, throwing no touchdowns and committing one interception during Sunday's 43-6 loss to the Falcons. He also fumbled three times, losing all three to the opposition.

    Analysis: It was a disastrous day for Carr, with his third-quarter interception to Deion Jones going for a 67-yard pick-six. The quarterback's three fumbles resulted in a combined 13 points for Atlanta, and he was unable to muster a passing TD for the second time over his past three outings.

    Analysis: Carr resumed his early-season success after a rough three-week stretch that saw the signal caller average just 143.3 yards per game and a mediocre mark of 6.0 yards per attempt. The seven-year pro has shown that he still can play above league average when the game script asks him to make plays down the field.

    Analysis: Las Vegas' ground attack was working in full effect during a dominant divisional win, generating 5.0 yards per carry and punching in four scores. With a multi-possession lead in place throughout the fourth quarter, Carr's passing volume was reduced for a third consecutive outing. The three-time Pro Bowler attempted 25 or fewer passes Weeks 8, 9 and 10, with each outing resulting in a Las Vegas win (and two coming by double digits).

    Analysis: It's the second straight game in which Carr has thrown for under 200 yards, but the sixth time in eight starts he's tossed multiple TDs. With the Raiders beginning to lean heavily on Josh Jacobs and the running game, Carr might have more low-volume afternoons ahead, but Week 10's clash with a Broncos defense that's been stingier on the ground than through the air could give him a chance to post better numbers.

The 29-year-old has struggled with fumbles thus far in 2020 (four lost), but a key reason the Raiders are winning is that Carr has limited his interceptions.

    Analysis: Carr and the Raiders appeared to be on their way to a prolific afternoon after the veteran quarterback hit Nelson Agholor with a perfect 20-yard scoring strike on a post pattern early in the first quarter. However, Carr was able to lead only one other first-half scoring march -- one that culminated in a 42-yard field goal -- and added just a one-yard scoring toss to Darren Waller the rest of the way as far as fantasy impact plays are concerned.

    Carr completed 22 of 31 passes for 347 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in the Raiders' 40-32 win over the Chiefs on Sunday. He also rushed for one yard on four carries.

    Analysis: Carr authored what is arguably the season's biggest upset thus far, as he played one of his best games yet in his two-plus seasons under the tutelage of coach Jon Gruden. The veteran signal-caller displayed excellent command of the offense while connecting with 10 different pass catchers on the afternoon.

Vegas moved the ball better in the second half, but Carr couldn't find the end zone until hooking up with Hunter Renfrow from 13 yards out to complete the scoring.

After a strong start to the season, the 28-year-old QB has a 3:4 TD:INT over the last four games, failing to top 230 passing yards in three of them, and his regression has cost the Raiders a chance to claim the top spot in the AFC West.

    Analysis: Carr was pulled late in the third quarter with his team trailing 34-3, as coach Jon Gruden didn't see any point in leaving the starting quarterback in.

    Analysis: Carr was quite effective as a passer, completing 86 percent of his passes while averaging an impressive 10.1 yards per attempt.
