I think Carr is a stash and see player. If he blows up against the jets, I think he's safe to start throughout the season. People are sleeping on this kid, but I think he could have a big year. People see his brother and think failure runs in the family, but I think it means Derek knows the error of his brothers way and has a better chance of success through that.

I think most people see the Raiders and know failure runs in the family. . But I suppose the brothers Carr thing too

I am thinking the same Beengay!

Here is the thing Foot. When you make 10 crazy predictions and 2 come true, you are still batting .200.

While I'm sure a play like this one will prove to be correct every now and then, you are going against the percentages big time here. More often than not, it will be a losing move.

RG3 has a tough match up, but he is healthy and needs to start until Carr proves he can do it in a real game.

Understandable, but the raiders can't suck forever, right?

Treff I don't recall calling myself a genius or stating my IQ recently, if I did I apologize, in fact now a days when I make a crazy prediction I usually try to make sure I add a disclaimer or something so that if a beginner is listening in they won't listen to it and if I predicted RG3 to be ranked 2 and Carr 4 or 5 and then decide I liked Carr better why is it pulling guys out my arse, because you says so? I don't think so bro. I seen a few guys make adjustments to the rankings in the rankings game before does that mean their original rankings were pulled out of their arse?

Umm..does this ring a bell?
The Foot;5471548 Two years ago I did a similar move and it paid off. I started the unknown Colin Kaepernick over the strugling Cam newton and every thought I was crazy until Kaeps outscored Cam said:
And yes we've adjusted or rankings. . Thus the lead in to that comment. . Nothing has happened that should affect a change. . No games, no injuries, barely even a practice. . Since you posted them. . Which basically leaves us with you don't really believe in your #2 or you wouldn't be having this discussion

OK fair enough on the first comment, I was wondering where all your hostility was coming from since I have been trying to be extra careful in not opposing my views on anyone like I have benn known to do it the past, so I understand, and am sorry for that comment.

As for changing my rankings with in only a few days and with out any circumstances is a good point but i still don't feel you should assume I don't really believe in my #2. It's just that I had not did my homework on Carr at that point and the more I researched and learned the more and more I liked him.

You can say what you want as far as your personal opinion goes but at thast end of the day it's still just an opinion and you know what they are like! Arse wholes

But next time instead of taking little jabs at me all day just tell me why you are in a pissy mood. I am very understanding and I greatly want to avoid any arguments with you even though they are entertaining I just know they can get heated quickly. if I am wrong i will except responsibility just like in this case.

Yea cause I put him 6 because of the game I seen him play in but then i watched more college videos and read certain things that made me like him more. I still like RG3 high that hasn't changed. I don't know why I have to explain my rankings to you in the first place and quite frankly really don't want to keep going back and fourth because i know you will I if keep going so i will just end this conversation with. You are right and leave it at that!

Fine foot.. I'll drop it. Just so you know. .I called the rankings into question because you're asking for advice on a question which directly conflicts what you posted not more than a few days ago, seems like a fair question to me. This wasn't only for the sole purpose of giving you a hard time, I'm honestly wondering why. If you believe in them go with them. If you don't than that's fine, but I would certainly expect people to give me a hard time if I posted a "should I start Ball or Murray?" thread, that's where is coming from.

in fact I'd expect to be crucified, after being chased with pitchforks, drawn and quartered, then burnt at the stake
