Carr doesnt really move us into a playoff contender more than Darnold or a rookie would. We'd still have the same limitations on offense. 

Damn, a month of solid play from Darnold and suddenly he's being spoken about in the same breath as a 3-time Pro Bowler.

Way to go, Sammy boy!

What the hell are you talking about? He got benched because they want to draft his replacement and are concerned he could win these last couple games. If you listened to any of his press conferences this year you would know he isn’t a quitter. He was in tears during their losing streak. I don’t want him on our roster, but the man has a lot of heart.

lol right? It’s very similar to the Kyle Allen hype we had. Right now Carr is a solid starter in the league and Sam is maybe a solid backup/bridge QB. Maybe Sam can continue his turn around, but Carr has already proven himself.

If you go home and leave the building because you got benched that's quitting. 

 

He has left the team.

Lol. He didn't quit. They yanked him because if he got injured in the last two games his entire 2023 salary and part of his 2024 salary become fully guaranteed.

This is a purely financial move because they are going to cut him.

That salary isn't tradeable and even if it was, it has a no-trade clause so he gets to pick where he goes.

Carr is on the same level as kirk cousins in that yes, he's a good QB but he's not elite. I think he'll end up going to the Jets where they will offer him a long-term starting gig as here, he would be only considered a bridge QB as we are dead set from Owner to front office to fanbase on drafting a QB in the 1st this year.

Did you see my post?

 

He's not in the building. Not at meetings, practice or lifting sessions. He's cleaned out his locker.

At any job in the world if you go home after a demotion and don't return to work that's quitting.

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
