The Oakland Raiders‘ playoff chances to advance were severely diminished this past Saturday, when Derek Carr broke his fibula during a tackle against the Indianapolis Colts.
Turns out he was mic’d up when it all happened.
In the video below, you can see how Carr spent most of his day on the field. From the tunnel to passing touchdowns and enjoying a comfortable to lead, to the moment he broke his leg. You can clearly hear that as soon as he went down, he knew it was broken. He didn’t scream in pain or agonize over the injury. He even wished his backup quarterback Matt McGloin good luck.

This was the year the Raiders made some noise in the playoffs after being out a while and in a bad luck chain of events, shit changed for the worst.
