SIT ‘EM

Raiders. Derek Carr. 1. player. 28. . Quarterback

Derek Carr has been a bust this season. Sure, he had some great games, but he was absolutely atrocious last week against the Chiefs. Carr isn’t having the kind of season that many expected him to and that’s been disappointing for those that spent high draft picks on the Raiders quarterback.

The Cowboys defense might seem like one Carr could play well against, but think again. Michael Fabiano of NFL.com notes that the Cowboys haven’t been as bad defensively as people seem to think,

"Their defense has given up 15.5 fantasy points to quarterbacks on the road this season."

With the championship game on the line, do you want to risk your shot at winning it all by throwing Derek Carr in as your starting quarterback? He threw for just 69 yards in the first half against a bad Chiefs secondary last week. I would not trust him to win your team’s match-up.
