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

There is no way if Derek Carr had went to the Falcons or Panthers and went 14-13 as a starter that people would be singing the Derek Carr just needs more help song. Nobody on this board was a Carr apologist when he was with the Raiders. Any player in the NFL can look better than what he is if you nitpick enough.

Bottom line is that this team is so far off from being a contender that we do not have the ability to stack the team or attract a top head coach while Carr will be here and able to play at the level he is now.

He is neither the problem or the solution and he is so much better than our alternatives that we will just win pointless games and go no where significant with him that will hinder us from getting what we need.
