For anyone who says Carr is just a stat padder and don’t win:

While wins/losses are important, they aren't a great metric for individual players. Like, Joe Burrow is having an MVP type year, yet they didn't even make the playoffs, much less win their division. We all know Burrow is much better than his record indicates. And we've seen lots of top shelf QBs struggle to get wins because it's a team game.

But yeah, it's about a 1-2 game difference per season, so I wouldn't use that. Something like QBR or similar would be a better metric as to how well or efficient a qb is playing.

I agree it isn't the best metric, I was just pointing out that those W/L records were almost the same.

Carr is rarely high on any metrics that adjust for opponent and/or situation, but he is also rarely at the bottom of the list. He is a middle of the pack NFL QB who needs a strong roster and coaching staff, and we don't seem to have that right now. It's probably better to move on to Rattler and try building around him rather than put Carr into his likely third offensive system in three years and try to build around him (at 34 years old). I can't imagine any team in the league giving him $40m to play next year, most teams already have their guy, established or in development. The Jets and Giants seem like the only openings pre-draft, and Carr would be in competition with Sam Darnold and Kirk Cousins for one of those jobs.
