Hot Takes Welcome (Post Commanders Loss) (4 Viewers)

Time to get rid of the Fresno State players on our team. I feel Rattler is learning and could be a much more exciting QB soon. This Carr guy is more injury prone than Zion. Patience is starting to wear on Carr.

I agree Rattler brought something to the table the other guy did not excitement funny how the crowd suddenly showed life when he came out…….and …. Most importantly he looked better than the last time we saw him out there.

Granted he had more time to throw then in his first stint but he is showing publicly what you want to see, improvement over the course of his rookie season. Even in his first stint you can see he has something Carr and Henner don’t, the ability to see a play develop and use his body to throw guys open. Plus he sees more of the field even as a rookie.

I am not willing to throw Carr in the trash just yet he still is our best option simply because he can make decisions quicker, even if they are simply throwing the ball away.

Now all of that said the rest of this year is a wash so we may as well let Rattler play out the string.

Ride this out with Rattler and into the great unknown 2025.

Disagree. If you have the better team on both sides of the ball, the you kick it.

This team is not stopping Daniels when it’s 4 downs football. It’s took fortunate penalties on most of our scoring drives. Zero chance we get those “make it a close game” calls in OT.

This times a million

I thought the 2-point try at the end of the game was a mistake. If it was successful, it would have been lauded as a great, gutsy play, but the stats favor going for the tie in that situation.

We won the second half, we had the momentum. I would have kicked it, but then again, I'm not a fan of 2-point conversions anyway.

I like Derek as a human being and as a QB. He seems like a fantastic guy who wears his heart on his sleeve and has shown he'll put his health on the line for the team. There are times, though, when I wish he was a little less willing to. I don't think he's a guy who can necessarily elevate the players around him (like Brees could, but big shocker that he falls short of a Hall of Famer and the GOAT, imo) and brother, the cupboard is freakin' BARE.

Rattler will start next week and go 9-26 104 yards and 2 INT’s. He might’ve brought a spark to this week but we saw what he was for 3 weeks. He might’ve brought be better or more exciting than Heaner but that ain’t saying much.

 

[anoldfan]

For those talking about the AK injury I kind of hope he is held out the rest of the season because they're going to get him seriously injured eventually with those futile predictable runs up the gut. You can predict that run 9 out of 10 times and it looks like it works about 1 in 10.

Agree. At least he gave us a little life today. Crowd was at least back into the game with Rattler .

And what has Derek Carr given you that was so exciting? Besides his Michael Jackson impersonation in Arlington.

 

[WhoDat?DrewDat]

He threw 3 bombs that were a half yard too long or else it’s possible the score would have been insurmountable by the time Rattler started his game-tying drive. I was mostly surprised by how much he was sacked today. But it’s hard to say how many of those 8 sacks were the fault of Daniels or his offensive line.

It felt as if he was taking sacks to avoid ruining him completion %.

We might have won this game if Rattler starts. If there is anyway possible to move on from Carr next year I would prefer to just let Rattler start next year and maybe develop.

I still want Loomis to move up and bring in a new GM and I am ready to have a full coaching change. Bring in a new HC and let him and a new GM rebuild the staff.

Yea there is a way, Rattler earns the starting position in training camp, and you tell Carr he is the back up and if you don't like it leave or shut up accept it. You make Rattler TAKE Carr's job from him fair and square, if Carr can't handle it then that is his problem.

 

[OldTimeGamer1966]

Only in dreams does that guy come back here.

Still, listening to Washington fans the last few weeks, they are growing tired of Kliff’s play calling, and they feel as though Jayden is keeping that offense competitive (not the system).

Please anybody but Dingleberry I would have Rizzi remain as head coach.

I don't think Rattler is better QB then Carr right now. Carr is not the QB of the future but if you care about winning now he is, at least in my opinion, the better QB.

I would rather move on from Carr and let Rattler start because I know Carr is not the long term answer and I would rather suck and find out what we have with Rattler, then have another 2 years of mediocrity with Carr.

I missed the first half but our o-line is woof. Need 2 guards in FA and the early in the draft, one to start and Ruiz needs to earn the job against some legit competition.

Need a new TE1 in the worst kind of way. Really disappointed the 2 point play was basically called for the worst hands we have on offense.

Miller needs to be fed more, we need to figure out if he can stay healthy cause he's part of the solution.

Don't think we can or need to cut Carr next year as some people say but I think we can not waste our time with this QB class and start investing in our offense. Guards, TE, possession receiver would go a long way in giving us a fighting chance.
