Pretty good QB.

Except for his complete lack of pocket awareness. Which is a significant problem.

Oh, and the hospital balls and passes thrown behind players.

And then there are the passes thrown in the wrong windows making them more difficult for our receivers and easier for the defenders.

Maybe he isn't that good of a QB, after all. But he is adequate, I guess.

Carr in total is average at best. It's who he's always been. He's not the biggest problem, but he's also NOT part of the solution.

We need to clean house. I do not care about dead money at this point, if he does not cost us MORE by cutting him then he needs to be cut and even if he does costs more depending on how much the conversation still needs to be had.

Same goes for a host of others; T.Hill, J.Johnson, J.Williams, C.Jordan, K.Saunders, N.Shepherd, D.Davis, T.Mathieu.

P.Adebo, C.Young, P.Turner I would consider bringing back on 1yr deals depending on $$$. Young & Turner should not get a penny more than what they're making this season. Adebo can, but do not overpay.

C.Olave if he returns to football he's still on a rookie contract so you do not cut him, but I not sign him to a multiyear 2nd contract so I would definitely look to trade him. He's not a true #1, and he cannot stay healthy.

You gotta get cap compliant... Can't do that when you're already in the red.

No sense having a guy like Carr when hes not good enough to win without talent around him.
There's only 2-3 QBs in the league that can win without talent around them. And that might be a stretch.

He had a man wide open on that fourth down and did not throw it. He just held the ball it's like dude. What are you doing??

I get it. We are lacking it receiver and he did hit the big pass MVS but those Red zone issues that he's always had came back to haunt him again yesterday.

Sure so whats the solution? Keep Carr and build around him the next two years so we maybe have a shot at the playoffs? Sounds like same shite Ive seen the past 2 years.

If he fricks like he GMs it’s not going to help him much.
