BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is, in this writer’s opinion, better than his numbers have shown over the course of the season. He unfortunately suffers from a dearth of talent surrounding him on the Oakland offense, particularly on the offensive line. While his supporting cast won’t change in a week, Carr draws a great matchup in Week 15 against the reeling Cincinnati Bengals, who have allowed the most points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season.
The volume is typically there for Carr, who has thrown fewer than 30 passes just once this season. Oakland needs to throw because they are typically behind in games and have been relying on Doug Martin as their main ballcarrier this year. They might not be behind in this one, but we should still expect plenty of throwing from Carr on the road against a bad secondary. In this matchup it’s worth rolling the dice on Carr in deeper leagues if you need a quarterback.
