Carr has filled the stat sheet with passing yards to start off the season, as he has averaged 401 yards and two passing touchdowns per game. In Week 4, he is in for his toughest matchup of the season against the Los Angeles Chargers defense that held Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs to just 260 passing yards and two inceptions in Week 3. Mahomes isn't the only star quarterback who has had difficulty against the Chargers, as Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys threw for just 237 yards and no touchdowns a week prior. The main reason that Carr could bust this week is mainly because of the projected decline in passing volume. He has averaged 45 pass attempts through the first three games of the season, but going against a strong pass defense may call for a more balanced attack on offense.
With Josh Jacobs potentially returning to action this week, the Raiders could look to take advantage of the Chargers' poor run defense so far this season. Historically, they haven't been shy to give their former first-round draft a hefty workload, so it would be no surprise for them to exploit the weakness of their opposition's defense. Clyde Edwards-Helaire rushed for 100 yards in Week 3, and the duo of Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard combined for 180 yards in Week 2. Considering Carr was likely not drafted in a ton of leagues, fantasy managers thankfully don’t have to rely on him this week as he could be in for a dud. I project Carr gets less than 275 passing yards and throws less than two touchdowns.
