He did so while permanently losing his top deep threat after Week 7 - yet he still made this list. Got it? Good.Īs unprecedented adversity threatened to sink the Raiders in 2021, Carr put together one of his most impressive seasons, leading the franchise to its first playoff berth in five years. Hopefully we've reached the end of an unrelenting, multi-year slog marked by people consistently questioning this man's viability as the Raiders' franchise quarterback.
Yes, the man is incredible, even if Green Bay's offense wasn't optimally balanced when it came to opening up home-run opportunities. That's fine: Rodgers still won his second straight NFL Most Valuable Player Award. 10 because the Packers just weren't all that explosive downfield. He struggled mightily on deep passes thrown under pressure, posting a passer rating of just 56.6. As Green Bay's greatest threat, Rodgers rarely capitalized on play-action, finishing with the eighth-fewest deep passing yards via play-action among qualified starters while tossing just one touchdown pass on 10 attempts. The rest of Rodgers' statistical breakdown is simple, if not discouraging. One prominent detail from Rodgers' deep-passing résumé won't shock you: Rodgers racked up 93.8 percent of his deep passing yards from inside the tackle box.
