I recognize that Carr is the best QB we had since the Gannon era but the bar was set so low with the amount of trash/mediocre QBs we had that it made Carr look great in comparison.

In his early years he could scramble outta the pocket with ease and show off his athletic ability but the leg injury he suffered really changed his style of play. Now he has to fully rely on his arm which takes away his dual threat ability.

Carr was never good at protecting the football either. I can’t knock his leadership skills and players/coaches around the league respect him in that regard but after 9 years? I don’t see Carr elevating to anything more than what he currently is.

Thanks for the 9 years and I wish him well if he goes to another team other than our rivals but it’s time to move on.

damn time flies by fast. :wow:

Feels like it's time. He's kind of the Steve Sarkisian of NFL QBs (minus the personal stuff). You basically know what you're getting and there's a definite ceiling. He'll generally beat and lose to who he should, with not much deviation from that.

After Purdy crashes and burns in the playoffs he's gonna end up with the Niners. Probably get to the bowl too, seems like just the thing that happens to the Raiders :francis:

Derek Carr is not a very good quarterback.

And the next team that gives him a chance is going to regret it.

Jets, Colts, Commanders…you’re going to have a bad time if you choose this guy.
