Derek Carr world tour thread (updated with combine visits)

NY also has an unhappy fanbase and a local media that can eat players alive. Plus, I’m not sure if the concrete jungle is the best place for an Evangelist. The South is a great place for an Evangelist and is a bit more forgiving in terms of player’s performance. He better choose wisely. However, many people love the allure of NY. I personally don’t, but to each their own.

As for rosters, I would say that it’s kinda a wash. We both have great players/rosters. I do give them the edge when it comes to the HC. However, the Jets players, although they may be on the younger side, they are very immature and petty. That stunt they pulled, when they all wore Mike White shirts, was a brutal and immature act, especially when Zach was still part of the team. That’s not the acts of professionalism. Also, a lot of their young players are very “vocal” to the media and social media. Someone needs to get them to shut up when it comes to internal matters. Just my $.02
The allure of playing for NY isn’t the same as it was in 1975 or 1985. Heck, it even doesn’t have the allure it had in 2005.
This is a post streaming era. Everyone gets every game. You see a lot of players make their championship marks and HOF careers in small markets. Payton Manning. Brees. Favre. Rodgers.
Mahomes. Burrow. Allen.
Being in NY or any other big market is no longer a requirement.

And to your point about it being better for a Evangelist to be in the South; is it?
Because I’ve lived here my entire life and there is vast difference between New Orleans and the Bible Belt South. IMO, NOLA and Atlanta are the two cities in the Deep South that aren’t “Bible Belt” towns.
