Which was the point being made by many, but many didn't and still don't believe that it was a sign that either he might not want to be here or that the team might not want him. As it turns out, it's Carr that might want to part ways and the team is making him stay for at least this year.
To look at the other side, watch what happens if we go say 11-6, win the division, win a playoff game with Carr as QB1. The narrative could change for Carr, the team and the fans. Winning cures all or at least keeps the noise to a minimum.
