Kamara with 39 targets in 4 games this season now lets compare that to Cmac who is similar back when it comes to pass catching skills

Mccaffrey with 27 targets in 6 games and only 1 game with y targets (Kamara with 3)

If that don't scream your QB is checking down far too often then i dont know what will

The problem is the saints team isn't trash. They have talent on offense and a really good defense (5th in the league through 7 games) and he still not cutting it. I think this offense is much better with someone like a Stafford for example. I would even take your QB over him at this point

It doesn't necessarily have to be the players that are trash. If a team has poor coaching, you're going to get similar results as what you would get if the roster lacked talent because QB's like Carr aren't the elite level QB that can overcome that.

None of Derek Carr's 88 losses are his fault.

Anyone remember the funny Leon Bud Light commercials from back in the day?

All of Carr's losses are due to bad coaching, bad teammates, bad calls and sometimes bad weather.

I am willing to overlook all of his Raiders losses due to the owners hair. I don’t know what the problem is now.

He needs to sell the team honestly. Doesn't know what the fuck he is doing. Nothing at all like Al.

He was probably adopted.

Yeah i feel you. Mediocre/ crappy qbs such as carr need everything to be perfect to succeed

Congrats on taking a comment out of context.

I post a meme about Carr. You start talking about Watson...

 

[Shanemansj13]

Saints defense went nearly 2 quarters without allowing a point but he wants to run with the narrative that it was their fault lol

Saints defense is one of the best in the NFL so the defense excuse is getting pretty old

 

[Shanemansj13]

Carr is no different than the majority of QB's in the NFL. You have a few elites (he's not there) and you have a few "how the hell is this guy in the league" guys (that's not Carr either).

Put a good team around him, give him some weapons and he's fine. Put trash around him...not so much.

Apparently if you put a good team around him he is still less than stellar. He hasn't played good even though he has weapons and a very solid defense.

Well.....it went over your head.

Got it.

1st year on the team. It takes time for most signal callers to get used to their teammates.

Not everybody is TB in Tampa or Stafford in LA.

And BKS has admitted the OC is trash so....

It just ain’t right to expose Mr Rogers to some of the crap in here

 

[DJ Fieri]

They won’t pay it

They paid it

 

[dtgold88]

So who's gonna "who got the worst deal" thread between the Browns and the Broncos...?

Course both gave up a helluva lotta cabbage for their current signal callers...

Has to be Denver at this point as their QB has played and been healthy nearly entire time and been awful....and their team is garbage. Plus, he's 6 or so years older.

But the Browns better figure something out at QB whether Watson can figure it out or someone else can play until he can.

arguably not the worst in last 2 years (Wilson).

 

[dtgold88]

He is literally Cleveland’s offense today

He was incredible but the O deserves some credit of their own (realize you said this around half time...but the O did make some plays, too.)

Honestly I really don't get why some here (in Browns forums and talk radio...not you) seem so apprehensive to blame the D when it is warranted. Whenever they screw up it's the O's fault somehow.

D was amazing in getting all the sacks and TOs for sure but when we did take leads (aided by the O) the D couldn't hold them. 450+ yard to Minshew and the Colts. Once again, have to give credit to Walker as while he often looked really bad he came through on another drive when needed to win the games. 80 yards this time in 2.5 minutes.

Do was seriously Jeckyll and Hyde drive toi drive. Elite one drive, awful the next. Kind of hoping they get ripped some this week as they play much better when others don't believe how good they are.

What a W!! Yes, refs will get some credit but even if it was true we sure deserve it. My thoughts? Call that took away the fumble by PJ was the right call.....Cooper was grabbed. The PI? Not catchable and bad call. But don't call it's 2nd and goal from 8. Still might have scored.

 

[dtgold88]

James Madison cracks the top 25. I assume this is their first ever

Have to say I'm surprised UM is getting the Bama treatment. They really have not played anyone so hard to understand how they are ahead of so many undefeated teams. Thinking their best win is Rutgers or Minnesota?

Oh well...real poll comes out in a couple weeks.

 

[dtgold88]

the bailout call for the Browns.

One where we'd have still had 2nd and goal from 8 if not called?

 

[dtgold88]

The way that game was going I’m not so sure the Browns win if Watson hadn’t gone out

Way he was playing hard to disagree.....before he went out I had just texted a friend asking how bad he thought he'd need to be to get pulled.
