Carr tends to force it in sometimes ill advised, or he won't throw the WR open or in a manner that will allow the receiver to get lots of YAC. Haener did good in the first outing on a long ball, but missed a wide open throw a couple of times in game two. Rattler looked rattled in game 2.

This is the reality of the current Saints team.
Carr forcing it? Why doesn't it result in turnovers then? His interception rate (1.9%) for his career is tied for the 8th lowest in NFL history. He had the 3rd lowest interception rate (1.5%) in the league last year behind Stroud and Pickett. If anything I'd say he doesn't force it enough. Too conservative or careful at times.
