[quote=Rainman56 post_id=1078197]FFS just get us a QB that has a fking pair,Will play under center and is will to go through his progressions without having a moat around him......Carr=Biggest Pussy To Ever Play QB In The NFL........Fking sickening watching this CLOWN go Full Fetal time and time again.

Fk the Fresno Fraud...Ain't winning shit with a QB who refuses to "lay it on the line" when the going gets tough.[/quote]It still baffles me that Carr proclaims Brett Fabre and Kobe Bryant as his sports idols.

You guys are forgetting the Carr voodoo magic that he's able to put on coaching staffs.

5 full years of mediocrity and he manages to keep his job as an NFL starting QB. Mariota had a rough season with an injured throwing shoulder and he got shitcanned for Ryan Tannehill. Cleveland did the same thing with Mayfield. Dude helped take them to the playoffs, gets injured the next, and then replaced with the most controversial player in the NFL in the following offseason.

Hell, if I took a few minutes to think about it, I could probably name a dozen once-promising QBs who got ousted after just a season or two of poor play.

But not Carr. Nope. A disappointing season that should cause serious evaluation gets sprinkled with some magic eyeliner dust and coaches are suddenly seeing green grass, rainbows, and unicorns instead of the reality of the mediocre hellscape they're actually in.

Smells like Mark.

Even more impressive is the spell on half the fan base.

Imagine, on top of 2 fumbles and 3 INTs, to pull THIS jelly fish move (worth reposting, his "best buddy" with the ball no less)... he's still got support.

He may have even made Gruden crap out the Brady signing.

Unsavory emails may be helpful!

I absolutely refused to watch the his post-game "good soldier" routine he's so good at.

But somehow a few seconds were flung at me from another video, and he didn't seem that disappointed.

I think he was just happy they made it to the playoffs. He seemed happy they made it close vs a good team.

I can't read minds, but I describe how it looks to me.

He's not a killer. You have have to be a little cut-throat in the NFL, the top dogs.
He doesn't have it.

I'll give him some slack for 1st game no pre-season. You need real time timing. Every player is going to have
horrible games at times.

I just don't think he's a winner here. I think he'll have good stats and a winning record this year, but he has a ceiling of 1 playoff win.
I think he'd be very pleased with that result!

That makes me sick to death. I hate that. I really hope he makes me eat my words, Really. I'd LOVE to.

I don't see it. Feels like the end of a long slow burn of fail and bullshit.

Outside of that, and the questionable coaching, I like the talent and the spirit of the team overall.

Numerous coaches who have no ties to him have come in and elected to keep him.

Either they have all been idiots or you are wrong.

[quote=Xramfan post_id=1078319]Those coaches are gone because they have been let go for failure no?[/quote]Simpler still is to look at what hasn’t changed. Carr, and oh-look-at-that, the owner. Anyone want to guess who has final say on things in a football organization?

If you go on Facebook or Bleacher Report and read the non-fan comments.... quite a few wish that Carr was the QB on their teams. And most NFL talking head shows (actual experts, like NFL Gameday and NFL Rewind, not morons like Stephen A Smith who only know basketball but still throw in their useless opinion) give Carr his props, that he's a top-10 or 15 QB depending on who you ask.

[FlyBono24]

Speaking of Stephen A Smith.... last week they asked which team would score the most points in Week 1. He said the Chargers.

Then later they asked him to pick the Raiders-Chargers game.... he said the Raiders would win a close game.

So he basically said the Chargers would score more points, but the Raiders would win. (Does he know that's not how it works in this sport??)

Derek Carr's last 12 games - 14 TDs, 13 interceptions, 11 fumbles.

More 'hater' facts by your truly. That 11-13 rank is nosediving... even Bowl cut ain't dumb enough to think that is good football.
