That Derek Carr Contract is Looking Pretty Brilliant Now

Doesn’t look like it at a glance, I don’t see how he even gets a hand on Judon from his alignment, and likely just runs into Fuaga if he tries. He tried to pick up the CB that he was likely supposed to block, overall just looks like the Falcons were all over this play call.

Looking at it, I may have misunderstood what Underhill meant. I tought he meant he blew the block on Judon (he said missed the block, not missed the block on Judon) but you are right he isn't close to Judon.

Johnson blew the block on #20 who then broke in front of Olave which is what caused Carr to double clutch. If Johnson makes that block, it looks like Carr may have had just enough time to get the ball off to Olave before Judon gets there.

But, I'm not sure why the play left Judon that free. You would think either Patrick or Fuaga should have chipped him before going out to block on the screen. But yeah, either Atlanta knew what was coming or they just got lucky and made a play call that was perfect to blow up the play.

Although if Johnson makes that block, Olave might have a lot of open space to run in.
