Raiders QB Derek Carr looked absolutely devastated after the loss against the Rams on Thursday Night Football. Notably, Carr had a pretty poor game against the Rams; on the other hand, Baker Mayfield played one of his best games of the season as a Rams player for the first time. After the game, Carr praised the 27-year-old quarterback for his amazing performance.

Notably, Carr has not had a great time this season with the Raiders, as their team is also performing miserably. Many fans and experts blamed the QB for the team’s poor performances. On the other hand, Mayfield also had a poor season with the Panthers; however, he turned it around in a single game after joining LA.

The Vegas QB also looked impressed by Mayfield, as he signed with the Rams just a few days ago. Speaking about it, he said, “It’s professional football, you’re going to get everybody’s best no matter who’s playing.”

Meanwhile, the Rams, 2021-22 Super Bowl champions, had a pretty poor season, as they won only 4 games out of 13 this season. After their star QB Matthew Stafford suffered a season-ending injury, they signed Mayfield for the rest of the season.

Certainly, he has shown his capabilities in his very first game against the Raiders. Under his leadership, the Rams made a solid comeback against Las Vegas in the fourth quarter; before that, they were losing the game by 3-16. Then, his last-second touchdown pass to wide receiver Van Jefferson sealed the game for the Rams. Mayfield suffered a lot of criticism from fans and experts earlier this season; however, all that changed after his amazing display against the Las Vegas side.
