Derek Carr might have made mistakes during the Week 1 game against the Baltimore Ravens, but he came up clutch when it counted for the Las Vegas Raiders. In fact, between tossing Zay Jones the final touchdown of the game in overtime and racking up a total of 435 yards, he did everything he could to put his team in a spot to win. Now, that doesn't mean there weren't some ill-timed throws to Darren Waller and other wide receivers, but he always made up for it.

What really set this performance apart was the touchdown that was called back and the subsequent interception that put the Raiders on the verge of suffering their first loss of the season.  While some thought that might have been the game, the Raiders' defense ended up getting the ball back and allowed Carr to set up a game-winning drive.  This is the kind of performance fans were expecting from Carr as a franchise player, and it's nice to see him finally come up clutch in a big game.
