That would be the end of the scoring for the Raiders, as the Chargers locked down on the defensive end. A quick stop on the defensive end jolted Las Vegas to life, and a rapid fire touchdown drive that included a 41 yard defensive pass interference call had Gruden’s guys within a score after Carr hit Waller in the end zone on a three yard TD pass. Carr led Vegas on an opening drive touchdown to start the third quarter and t he Raiders faithful, of which there were many in LA, started to come to life.

The Raiders came out looking like a different team after most likely getting an ear full from head coach John Gruden in the locker room. Herbert led two more touchdown drives before the end of the half, including a six-play 80 yard drive and a nine-play 69 yard drive that ended with a 14 yard pass to Austin Ekeler with just 29 second to go in the half. With no first downs in their first four drives the defense started to wear out late in the first quarter. The Raiders struggled mightily on the offensive end in the first half, going three-and-out on their first three series, and on their fourth possession turned it over on downs after just four plays. Herbert connected with Donald Parham on the four yard touchdown pass for the first score of the night. The postponed kick off might have affected the Raiders, but the Chargers didn’t miss a beat, coming out on the opening drive of the game with a touchdown after 12 plays and 75 yards. The game got off to a strange start after storm cell passed over Inglewood, California causing a delay to the game that was being played under the roof at SoFi Stadium. Justin Herbert had three touchdown passes as the Chargers were able to hold off a second half surge from Derek Carr and the Raiders.

Sure, he's not an exciting pick and he won't win you a fantasy league, but he's a decent second quarterback in 2QB and Superflex formats, especially considering that he doesn't have much competition at all behind him. He's currently going off the board in the 20s at the quarterback position - an ADP that he will almost certainly exceed. Both players were disappointments as rookies for varying reasons, but it's hard not to believe that Jon Gruden at least has some sort of an idea of what he's doing, as the Raiders have been able to put together top-12 offenses in terms of total yardage in back-to-back seasons, despite a seeming lack of high-end skill position players.Ĭarr lacks the mobility and the Raiders lack the offensive firepower for Carr to realistically finish as a quality QB1 in fantasy, but he's being disrespected a bit by fantasy gamers right now. Henry Ruggs III and Bryan Edwards are now entering their second seasons and should have a better grasp on not only the offense, but also their respective roles.
Of course, it's easy to have some confidence when you've got one of the league's best tight ends on the roster, that being Darren Waller, who has now put together back-to-back 1,100-yard seasons. This would seem to indicate that the Raiders are content with what they have at pass catcher, especially after signing veteran field stretcher John Brown. Unfortunately, Carr lost his top receiver from 2020 in Nelson Agholor, but the real question is - did Agholor suddenly become a truly quality receiver, or did Carr and the Raiders offense just elevate him to look like that? Agholor had been considered a bust by just about everyone prior to landing in Las Vegas and now after the one season where he actually looked competent making plays down the field, the team opted to not re-sign him. Carr threw for a career-high 4,103 yards while maintaining an impressive three-to-one touchdown-to-interception ratio, nearly leading the Raiders to a playoff berth. Las Vegas quarterback Derek Carr quietly finished just outside QB1 range in 2020 and was even a mid-range QB2 in fantasy points per game.
