Derek Carr Struggles In Season Opening Loss To Chargers
2 years agoLas Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr completed 22 of 37 passes for 295 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in a 24-19 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1. The Raiders offensive line struggled in this one, with the Chargers continuously getting pressure and racking up five sacks. Carr's interceptions were mostly in the face of pressure, but he was not sharp in this game. One thing we did see was the chemistry between the quarterback and the Raiders new superstar wide receiver Davante Adams, who will assist in ascending Carr's fantasy value in 2022. Even in a poor performance, the final stat line was acceptable for fantasy managers, minus the picks. Carr will look to do a better job of protecting the ball in Week 2 at home against the Arizona Cardinals.
