HOUSTON -- New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr has never had a problem going right back to one of his playmakers after something went wrong. That worked out well for him and wide receiver Rashid Shaheed on Sunday.

Carr connected with Shaheed for a 34-yard touchdown just two plays after an apparent miscommunication almost ended in disaster. Carr's attempt to target Shaheed down the sideline was almost picked off by Texans cornerback Steven Nelson, who would've had a potential pick-six if he had made the catch.
