David Carr - Fantasy Football QB of the Future?
Taking over 90 sacks over the last two years, David Carr has learned what it means to be patient. Sunday against the Oakland Raiders, came the next chapter in patience - that the team can run the football.
The run was the key element in the Houston Texans' 30-17 win over Oakland. To the Raiders' embarrassment, it was the most points the Texans had scored in a game in their brief NFL history.
"The hard thing about playing this Oakland team is that they have Ted Washington in the middle and Warren Sapp, all those run stoppers," Carr said. "They like to crowd the box and bring eight down and drop the defensive backs.
Carr only had to throw 23 passes, but he averaged 9.9 yards an attempt, 16.3 yards a completion. The Texans ran 40 rushing plays.
The result was Houston's first set of back-to-back victories in team history and the confidence that they are in a division race for the first time.
"I think the goals have changed a lot for this organization and my teammates. We are trying to win a division, get a championship. It shouldn't be shocking for our players to think that or for me to say that. In this league everybody has a chance to get there. We've seen it in the last four years."
