How inept was the Raiders offense Sunday in New Orleans? Well, that’s hard to describe in mere adjectives. It’s best encapsulated in a single statistic. Which I leave to AP stat guru Josh Dubow.
Buy Raiders TicketsQuarterbacks in past 16 seasons to play the first 56 minutes and not cross midfield:
Derek Carr for #Raiders vs Saints yesterday
Sam Bradford for Cardinals vs Rams 9/16/18 https://t.co/r5sExXMphn— Josh Dubow (@JoshDubowAP) October 31, 2022
That’s right, Derek Carr played all but the final possession on offense and not one of his drives moved inside New Orleans territory. Therefore every snap he took was on the Raiders side of the field — well out of scoring range.
As Dubow notes, that’s a feat only accomplished by one other QB in the past 16 years.
The stat would be for the entire offense if not for the fact that when Jarrett Stidham came in for Carr on that final garbage time possession, the Raiders drove as far as the New Orleans six-yard line.
Not that Stidham deserves any great credit for that. The Saints were up 24-0 and pretty much just letting the Raiders run down the clock. They still didn’t score on the drive and the shutout was complete.
