BALLER MOVE: Add as Bye Week Fill-In

ANALYSIS: Carr is probably only eligible to be written about in this column for one week. He was above 50% before being understandably dropped from many teams during his bye. Carr has played well this season. He had three straight games with at least two touchdown passes before he ran into the wall that is the Denver defense. Overall he has eight touchdowns to just three interceptions.

Carr faces the Chargers in Week 7. The Chargers defense has been up and down on the season. They totally shut down Teddy Bridgewater, but they also gave up 350 yards to Josh McCown. In Week 6 they did a respectable job against Aaron Rodgers, but his receivers were also very banged up. Carr and his formidable WR duo of Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree should be fully healthy coming off the bye and I expect a very solid day from them, approaching top 10 numbers.
