Saints head coach Kellen Moore introductory press conference, media updates, February 13, 2025

Of course he knows what he has in Carr. We all know what we get with Carr. Objectively speaking, Carr is not our franchise quarterback. And certainly, Kellen knows that his success will be tied to finding his guy. Trotting Carr out in his first season just honestly gets in the way of that. Carr probably makes a lot of sense for a few teams in this league. We're not one of them.

Philly played the Saints when they were relatively healthy and only won by 3 points. I think that Moore sees the Saints as a team that can compete this year, and for more than just the division title. But the Saints also came close to beating Washington with Rattler at QB, so who knows. I think you can make a case for either. But Carr gives you a better chance now. And I don't think that Rattler is a generational player that you couldn't find later in the draft if he wants to try to compete now.
