>Derek Carr Memorial Fact of the Day

Despite everything (injuries to himself and half the Saints' offense, a mid-season coaching change, Dennis Allen at head coach, etc.), Derek Carr was the Saints' best player according to PFF, with a glittering grade of 85.6.
In ten games (some cut short by injury behind a battered turnstile of an offensive line), the brave, cannon-armed gunslinger completed 67.7% of his passes for 2,145 yards, 15 TD and 5 INT, and a 101.0 passer rating.
Impressively, his five games after returning from his first injury were arguably more impressive than his first five, despite working with a much more depleted supporting cast in the latter portion of the season.

First five: 70.3%, 8 TD, 4 INT, 100.7 passer rating

Last five: 65.6%, 7 TD, 1 INT, 101.3 passer rating
