Carlson converted his only field-goal attempt in Monday's 15-9 loss to the Falcons, but his lone extra-point try was blocked.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson booted a 52-yard field goal to put the Raiders' first three points on the board early in the second quarter, but his extra-point attempt later in the fourth was blocked. This offense could benefit from quarterback Aidan O'Connell's (knee) potential return for a Week 16 matchup against the Jaguars, which would improve Carlson's outlook as a reliable kicking option.

Carlson converted both of his field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Buccaneers.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson continues to benefit from head coach Antonio Pierce's take-the-points philosophy, connecting twice from inside 30 yards en route to the league-worst Raiders' 11th loss of the season. Carlson has now made six field goals within the 20-29 yard range alone throughout the last four weeks, and Las Vegas' offense could stall often again in Week 15 against the Falcons on Monday Night Football with quarterback Desmond Ridder likely under center.

Carlson made one of four field-goal tries and converted both of his extra-point attempts Friday in a Week 13 loss to Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson came into the contest with just two misses on 24 field-goal tries on the season, but he uncharacteristically struggled to kick the ball between the uprights Friday. His only successful field goal came from a meager 27 yards out, while he missed from 56, 55 and 58 yards. Of course, those are long, difficult attempts even in today's kicking environment, so it's very doubtful that Carlson's inaccuracy Friday will put his job in any danger.

Carlson made all four of his field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 29-19 loss to the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson's impressive 13-point day was highlighted by a 53-yard boot to pull the Raiders within three points of the Broncos in the fourth quarter. He's now made 17 consecutive field-goal attempts dating back to Week 4, though a tough test awaits in Week 13 outdoors against the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.

Carlson made both of his field-goal attempts and converted his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 34-19 loss to the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson connected from 27 and 22 yards in the first half before tacking on an extra point late in the fourth quarter, bringing his tally to seven points for the contest. He's a perfect 13 of 13 on field-goal attempts since Week 4, but scoring chances could remain limited for Las Vegas against a stout Broncos defense in Week 12.

Carlson converted his only field-goal attempt and all three of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson still hasn't missed a field-goal attempt since Week 3, and an uninspiring Raiders offense that will likely feature either Gardner Minshew or Desmond Ridder at the helm following a Week 10 bye could struggle to score touchdowns against the Dolphins in Week 11.

Carlson converted both of his field-goal attempts and tacked on a pair of extra points in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson booted a 54-yard field goal to give the Raiders a 10-7 lead early in the second quarter, and he added a 32-yard make in the second half. He's accrued 23 total points over Las Vegas' last two games, but Carlson will be kicking without a roof for the first time since Week 5 when the Raiders head outdoors to Cincinnati in Week 9.

Carlson converted all five of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson was the only Raider to put points on the board in this contest, rebounding from a slow Week 6 outing in which he attempted just one extra point all game against the Steelers. A tough test awaits for this Las Vegas offense with Gardner Minshew at the helm versus the Chiefs in Week 8, but Carlson remains steady when given the opportunity to boot it through the uprights.

Carlson converted his only extra-point try in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
The Raiders did not attempt a single field goal in a game for the first time this season Sunday, leaving Carlson with just one tally in the box score on an extra point that came after a three-yard Alexander Mattison rushing touchdown on the team's opening drive. Carlson could have more opportunities to put points on the board in a friendlier matchup against the Rams at SoFi Stadium in Week 7.

Carlson converted his only field-goal attempt and made his lone extra-point try in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
Carlson connected from 40 yards to give the Raiders a 10-0 lead heading into the second quarter, but that would mark his final chance to put points on the board as the offense elected for a two-point conversion upon scoring late in the fourth quarter. It could be another low-scoring affair for this team in Week 6 against a stout Steelers defense.
