[quote=VEfreak post_id=1084016]If it was year one then it’s a fun and interesting conversation about why he sucks and how it can be fixed. But alas, it’s year nine, he stills sucks, and we have to watch him Sunday after Sunday after Sunday.[/quote]Very true. Year's 1, 2, and 3 were all interesting because he appeared to be on a consistent upward trajectory. He wasn't seeing certain receivers that were open, he was forcing some throws, he wasn't taking advantage of running lanes, etc. They were all things one would expect to see in a good but new NFL QB.

It's now 2022 and those same things still plague his game.

Also, it seems relevant to point out that there was very little criticism of him for his first four years. Even after the poor 2017 campaign, everyone was willing to blame the OC and Carr's early season back injury. It then took him 3 years to master Grudens system before finally having a decent year in 2020 with respect to TD passes.

Oh, and we don't have to watch this team. The only reason I'm not golfing every Saturday and Sunday is because for all practical purposes, Carr's on a one year prove-it deal. Assuming things continue as they have for the last 6 years and three games, I won't watch next year if Carr's still our QB.

Hospital pass :football: :hurt:[/quote]Yep. If that pass is thrown low and even close to between the numbers, it's a TD or on the one inch line. Instead, it's a bullet thrown high and behind Waller. Good QBs don't make such poor throws

[quote=16 to 88 post_id=1084149]"that's only 3 clips"...[/quote]So f[raiders_icon]cking stupid.

You could take game film from ANY QB in this league and find 3-4 clips of shitty throws or bad reads..... Brady, Rodgers, Mahomes, whoever....

Some people (including 90% in this thread) think every other QB is elite and Carr is the only one that makes mistakes. Apparently they don't pay attention to other games because QB play all around the league is shaky right now.

If they want a TRULY objective stat... not just PPG (because that could be skewed by your defense generating turnovers, i.e. more possessions).... look at Offensive Efficiency. This is % of drives that end in a score (TD or FG).
Currently the Raiders are 3rd in OffEff.... 48.3% of drives end in points.

Surprisingly #1 and 2 are the Jaguars and Browns. :astonished:
#3 is the Bills
#4 is the Chiefs

Maybe I’ll switch to MLB Extra Innings? Football is my favorite sport, but in baseball I’m a Braves fan, so at least I’d be spending my $ on something that adds a mostly positive experience to my life.

I already paid for Sunday Ticket this season, and I’m too cheap not to watch out of spite, but you bet your ass I won’t be paying next year if Carr is still our QB. What’s the point? Might as well be watching reruns from any of his previous seasons. Maybe I’ll stream games illegally, or go to a bar, but I pay for ST so I can stream games on a big screen without interruptions or thinking too hard to make it happen. Basically, it’s the best way to guarantee I can see the raiders in an optimal way. That’s not a product worth paying for anymore, and if we’re being honest it hasn’t been in a while.

I will continue to pay if it is ANYONE But Carr. I love the Raiders, and I’m willing to keep an open mind for literally anyone besides Carr. But with #4, I’ve seen enough. He is guilty until proven innocent, and at this point I don’t even want to hear his case anymore

It is frustrating and it is embarrassing to watch your QB game in game out not play with grit, hustle, or an aggressive attitude of wanting to rip the opposing team a new one.

It gets old watching him fold whenever adversity occurs; watching him go deer in headlights whenever the D brings pressure; watching him go with his only read while not seeing wide open WRs; watching him pout on the sidelines like the universe is treating him badly; watching a player who simply likes to win but does not hate to lose; watching a player throw it away on fourth down; watching a player fumble the ball in order to break his fall; and finally, watching a player who seems to be only concerned with just doing enough to maintain his career while the organization continues to go down the f[raiders_icon]cking drain.

It is difficult to watch. I hear you.

I can only hope that Z constructed Carr's contract with a purpose in mind.

I sprung for Redzone this year, and it's easily the best money you can spend on football. Commercial free football all Sunday. I admit I flipped over to Redzone after halftime last week, and never went back to the Raider game. Life is getting busy to the point that I can't afford to watch multiple games a week. If the only game I watch is the Raiders, I grow to hate football by the time November rolls around. Things have been much more enjoyable this way.

I have the latter, as it comes free with Sunday Ticket's U package.

I cut the cord awhile back so I just pay for a sling tv streaming subscription for football season. With that I can typically get most of the nationally televised games and redzone for about 40 bucks a month? The plan is to cancel some time in december as I don't really watch normal tv otherwise.
