Can this offense run efficiently without Carr? Players aren’t indestructible, and injuries can strike a team’s playoffs hopes down within an instant.
Last season, both Nick Foles and Carson Palmer missed huge chunks of the season with significant injuries. The Philadelphia Eagles just missed the playoffs with Mark Sanchez at the helm. In the NFC Wild Card Round, the Arizona Cardinals third-string QB, Ryan Lindley, put up a offensively offensive performance in a 11-6 loss to the Carolina Panthers.
When the starting QB goes down, the next man must step up equipped to steer the ship.
