This.Carr also never played with a WR like AB.
Also from AB standpoint this was never about wins and losses. He simply hated playing with Ben because his attitude is shit and he is far from a leader.

Yep he's far from a leader. BigBen's 144-69-1. Has thrown 350+ TD's. Has 55,000+ passing yards. Is 13-8 in the playoffs & has 2 rings.
Now tell me again what has Carr accomplished in the NFL?
And most or all HOF caliber playrs in all sports have attitudes.
Can he defend in space though?
That is the key question.

does it work when you deflect?And repeating your self over and over doesn't make your hot takes more correct.
That strategy didn't work when you tried to argue that Pat McCaw who averaged 15 minutes a game over 71 contests wasn't a "rotation player"
It didn't work when 3 years ago you tried to argue that Tristan Thompson was better than Hassan Whiteside.
And it won't work now either.
144-69-1? Football is a team game, not just 1 player, buddy.
And Big Ben has been surrounded by a lot better talent than Carr during the course of his career.
You're bringing up Ben numbers like i said he was a bad player. They're irrelevant to the reason AB wanted out....
Look at the way Brees, Brady, & Luck lead then compare it to big ben.
None of those guys throw teammates under the bus constantly.
Ben out here throwing a crucial int to a dlineman and blame AB for that somehow
None of this is offensive. we are just fans talking on a message board offering opinions. Yours is just way out of whack comparing the "luck" of GS in 2015 to the cavs in 2016.I really don't get why it is so offensive to them to admit that they were not better than the Warriors at full strength in 2016.
The Cavs won the title. They don't have to give their rings back or anything. The best team doesn't always win the championship.
Dallas and Detroit are prime examples.
yeah, let's see how him and Gruden get along...
Agree you'd think they could get more for those 2, but doubt they drop to average on offense as long as Big Ben is healthy.It is far from a worst case for AB though.
Carr isn't a great QB by any stretch, but he can still target AB enough to make him a top WR.
The Steelers are the real losers here. Getting a 3rd and a 5th for the best WR in football over the past 5 years and also losing arguably the best RB for nothing.
Pittsburgh's offense just went from being a juggernaut to being average overnight.
You were the one who mentioned the 2015 and 2016 comparison. I probably don't let it go because it is good for a laugh every time you mention it......and cannot come to grips how foolish the comparison is.
You want to say GS won in 2015 and the cavs did in 2016 so who cares? I get that.....but to compare the luck (if you want to call it luck) is absurd.
Amen. I always laugh when fans think attitude will lead to more wins. works the other way IMO. Winning leads to a better attitude.A better attitude doesn't win games. If you disagree just compare BigBen's win/lose record to Carr's.
I do believe the Cavs win at full strength, but no way to know.Because it's a stupid argument tbh
The Cavs had they had Kyrie Irving and Love in 2015 would have won. The game went 6 with the next best players Delly and Jr smith. In that series GS lost HC as well. Maybe the Cavs finish them off at home with Kyrie shooting 3's instead of Delly hoisting 3's at 20%? Maybe Love extra points and rebounding makes a difference. Put it this way, if Green and Thompson missed an entire series would you say that would have an impact on a series or no?
Lets not mention that this was GS first year in the finals. They had no finals experience or wind at their back going into the next season. Also if they lose, maybe they are less confident going into 2016...
OK, I can play this game.....and how quickly do the 2015 Warriors get bounced if the Cavs are healthy, but Curry loses his #2 and 3 (Green and Klay)? Think Curry and Bogut/Iggy/Liv can steal a game? How about 2?
Thanks for stating the obvious. But I was comparing BigBen & Carr's #'s because bksballer89 said BigBen isn't a leader. Which I disagree with.
Amen. I always laugh when fans think attitude will lead to more wins. works the other way IMO. Winning leads to a better attitude.
Winning games doesn't necessarily make a player a great leader, neither do great stats.
Kyrie is a great player, wins a lot of games and puts up great numbers. Not a lot of folks seem to think he's a great leader.
Rich Gannon hasn't put up the kind of numbers that Big Ben has, but at least when he was with the Raiders, he was considered a very good to great leader.
He's a play-maker, no denying that. Led the League in TD's.
does it work when you deflect?
Could you tell me again how we should compare the luck of a team who lost their 2nd and 3rd best players for 11 of 12 games to the one who lost their best player for no games but he was a little banged up and their 3rd best player for 1 game?
