How well is Derek Carr performing this season? Former Raiders MVP Rich Gannon breaks it down

HENDERSON, Nev. -- There is something oddly familiar about what Rich Gannon sees when the Las Vegas Raiders are on offense and Derek Carr is surveying the line of scrimmage.

Déjà vu, much, when it comes to similarities between Carr, who is in his fourth season in Jon Gruden's offense, and Gannon, who was in his fourth year in the same scheme back in 2002?

"I see a lot of them," Gannon said of the similarities. "I'm not comparing myself to Derek because we're different players, but there's a comfort level there. You can just tell when you watch him function in the huddle, at the line of scrimmage with the audibles and the checks and the protections, he's all over it.
