The Dolphins tie a season-high in interceptions for Derek Carr

Saw what you will about Carr’s ceiling as a passer, one thing he does very well is take care of the football. Carr’s career interception rate is just 1.8% of his pass attempts — a figure that is nearly half of the career mark posted by Ryan Fitzpatrick (3.4%). But Carr got tagged twice earlier this season by another of the NFL’s best defenses the Indianapolis Colts. With the Dolphins being the league’s best at crafting turnovers, we’d like to wager that the Dolphins are able to heat up Carr and force two more interceptions (and we’ll make the “bold” prediction that Xavien Howard lands one of them, too).
