The biggest story in the NFL this holiday weekend was Derek Carr’s broken leg. The best Raiders team in more than a decade lost its MVP-caliber QB (“MVP-caliber” being code for “we want to acknowledge how excellent he’s been, but c’mon, Brady’s the MVP and you have to work really hard to come up with reasons he’s not”) and further cleared the way for the Patriots in an already-shallow AFC. Well, Raiders fans, there’s a tiny sliver of hope. This is perhaps unrealistic optimism, but there’s a outside chance we see Carr again this season.
