Mike Garafolo: Saints are set to make a decision on Derek Carr within the next few weeks; likely to have multiple suitors if released

FWIW, Everett made the playoffs multiple times and to a NFC Championship Game at one point.

When he actually had good teams, he produced. I think too much attribution is given sometimes to a QB when it comes to lack of team success.

Brees is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time, but has multiple losing/mediocre seasons on his resume as a direct result of the team surrounding him.

We can’t complain and complain about Dennis Allen, Pete Carmichael, all the injuries, Mickey Loomis, etc. or talk about the Raiders dysfunction then turn around and say Carr should have overcome that.

Yep. I remember those years. Brees had so many bad games in 14-16. No TD scored in the Giants game in 16. Defense played well. Against Eagles, Commanders, and Texans in 15, the offense got completely rattled. The OL had issues to go with the bad defense and that was reasons and excuses given for Brees' off games. Saints struggled against tough pass defenses these years. Brees wouldn't get blamed and he shouldn't, but the OL didn't get much blame either. We know the OL is bad, worse than it was then. Imagine Brees playing behind this OL then.
