Derek Carr - Why People Dislike Him (IMO)

SWJJ said
Carr has plenty of flaws, but I think he gets way too much hate and blame.

Drew Brees ruined this franchise forever.

He is the gold standard for competitiveness, leadership, hard work, dedication, and winning.

No one else will ever live up to Drew, and some segment of our fanbase will have vitriol for whoever we have under center, because they too, will fall short of the standards that Drew set.

I have worked at the same company now for 23 years.

During my tenure, i have had about 4-6 "bosses" come and go. Some i connected with immediately. Some took some time and 1-2 i never really felt "comfortable" with ( with regards to my ability/performance )

Those 2 i can assure you were intimidated by my tenure and my ability. They didnt have either, and while i tried to placate that aspect, it was THEY who could never come to terms with it and over time created a bit of a disconnect.

I say all this because we have some guys in the locker room that was here for SP/Drew. They grew accustomed to what was asked of them, both verbally and non-verbally. Sometimes just a look can tell you all you need to know.

We are mired in a situation where the new "manager" isnt the old "manager" in both style, charisma and accomplishments. The expermiment is over. Attempting to "recreate" that atmosphere ( re: Loomis talking about "continuity" at DA hire ) with a staff that DOESNT have the same gravitas was wrong.

Until ML realizes this was the wrong move, this is where we are.
