Derek Carr ‘not a savior’ for Saints, just trying to be a ‘great leader’ in expected comeback against Panthers

The hope is that the return of the QB1, along with facing a Panthers team with a win, is the remedy for the Saints’ woes.

Carr simply isn’t willing to make any season-redeeming proclamations, even if he’s set up sensationally.

In Week 1, Carr and the Saints dismantled the Panthers, throwing three touchdowns in a 47-10 victory. With that win, Carr improved to 5-0 in his career against Carolina, having won twice with the Raiders and three times with the Saints.

Since both teams have taken a tough bus down a winding road this season, Carr and the Panthers’ quarterback young bryce They will begin facing each other once again in a somewhat surprising development. Carr has missed three games due to injury with the rookie Spencer Rattler starting in his place, while Young was benched but has now returned to the starting lineup after Andy Dalton He fell with a thumb injury.

Once a 2-0 favorite, the season is slipping away from the Saints, if it hasn’t already.

Carr hopes to change his team’s fortunes, but he doesn’t promise anything new.

“I’m going to come in and do what my guys expect me to do: bring energy, bring effort, like I said, be a great teammate,” he said. “Encouraging our guys, getting everyone on the same page, working out the details, holding each other accountable. What do you promise us nine weeks, right? Or 10. Whatever week it is. There’s just a total commitment on the part of “Myself before our boys.”

Carr practiced for the first time Wednesday since leaving the game against the Chiefs. It was classified as limited, but promises to advance at full speed.

“When I come back, I’ll be a psychopath,” he said. “I’m going to be crazy about the details and everything because we only have one chance for this. So I don’t have any promises or anything except that I will promise a lot of effort and long nights and early mornings to get it done.” “I’m sure we’re at our best.”
