Derek Carr Makes Day on 3 MVS Connections

Derek Carr Headshot

Saints QB Derek Carr threw for a nice 269 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday's win over the Falcons. Most of his production came on three completions to WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The pair connected on a 40-yard TD, a 67-yarder to set up another score, and then the 2-yard TD to finish that position. Carr tallied 160 yards on his remaining 13 completions (among 22 other attempts). Carr added 17 yards on 4 carries.

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

It was a nice fantasy outing if you had to start Carr, but also not the kind of production you should count on the Saints QB repeating.

He gets a worse (though not terrible) matchup with Cleveland in Week 11. The Browns entered Sunday as the 12th-toughest matchup by our adjusted fantasy points allowed.

Then comes a Week 12 bye and a fairly neutral remaining schedule.
