Will Derek Carr and the Raiders season finale against the Chargers be grand?

The first thing is; first, Derek Carr needs to have the best game of his career

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has had mixed performances in recent weeks despite the team being victorious. While winning is genuinely the only stat that matters, the team is now in playoff mode, where only the best performances from signal-callers will beat the opposition. However, it is hard to stop the Silver and Black when he plays like this.

Carr has accounted for five interceptions, and three fumbles lost since December. He recently accounted for two interceptions against the Indianapolis Colts this past Sunday.

They cannot be afforded extra opportunities against a familiar divisional foe who has scored at least 28 points per game since the start of last month. To take some pressure off him, mainly from Chargers edge rusher Joey Bosa, the following offensive skill players must perform at a high level.
