Carr exhibits great 'poise' on Raiders' game-winning drive

I just told the guys in the huddle to believe we could do it. We’ve done this a thousand times in practice...

OAKLAND – Raiders quarterback Derek Carr was pushing to unlock a tie midway through the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. He cocked back to let one fly, but a defender got a hand in and smacked Carr’s arm during a throwing motion.

The result was a quacking duck well short of streaking receiver Michael Crabtree, an easy interception at a pivotal time. The Ravens marched downfield and broke the tie with a field goal.
