Derek Carr the target of parade float “joke”

You and I both know that Carr took he high road on the issue. That was the only public response he could give. You and I also know what he probably said in the privacy of his home.

No I don't know that. I take people at their word. And I think he meant it because it's a stupid joke in the satirical spirit of Mardi Gras.

An image of him looking like a zombie playing QB because he was so beat up early in the season and a criticism of his play in the red zone. Do you really think Carr hasn't heard that before when he has struggled in the red zone for his entire career? Do you really think he's such a delicate snowflake that he can't take it as the joke it was intended to be? He had to deal with the team that drafted him releasing him and his family had to hear all the things said when that was about to happen. Do you really think a cartoonish image on a float is going to bother him or them?

It's so strange that nobody takes offense at all the other satirical floats about various other people during Mardi Gras, but people lose it when there is criticism about how a guy plays a game.
