Prayers up for Derek Carr [Mod Edit: Derek Carr is week to week with fractured left hand and concussion] (7 Viewers)

[HouseCall]

Bottom line is his body is breaking down much like Taysom Hill. He is not built up like Brees .

it certainly doesn’t get easier the older we get.

See, even the football gods are trying to help us to a better draft pick.

If that’s the way it goes, so be it. Until then, scratch and claw and do whatever it takes to win with cast of characters.

Yeah, just listened 2 Rizzi’s conference and they are calling Carr week to week right now vs the end of season doom we got.

He’s also not committing to Rattler yet. Seems there’s at least some chance that Haener gets the opportunity

I feel some Saints fans are too hard on Derek Carr. Fact is, that dude gives his all on that field. He literally gave his body up trying to pick up a critical first down. At first I was just hoping that he just landed hard on the football but upon seeing the replay you knew it was something worse. Hope he's ok.

Hope he bounces back quickly. Hopefully our MNF is flexed out. We don't need to be humiliated on a national level.

Sucks for him and the team but hopefully they can bounce back next year with the start of a rebuild going forward.

 

[Infoman]

Yeah we movin' on up!

When I saw left hand I was unaware that he was a left-handed QB. Yep that sucks, Thats all she wrote if there was any hope in the first place. I think we need to go all in on finding out what we have with the two back ups. We need to know if we should look for a QB in the 1st round or not.

Carr 'week-to-week' with hand injury, concussion

Saints quarterback Derek Carr is considered week-to-week after injuring his non-throwing hand and sustaining a concussion, interim coach Darren Rizzi said.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr is considered week-to-week after injuring his non-throwing hand and sustaining a concussion Sunday, interim coach Darren Rizzi said Monday.

"As it stands at this moment, I don't believe it's going to be an IR situation," Rizzi said. "... We're going to kind of take this day-by-day this week. ... He is in the concussion protocol also, so he has to complete the first step of that tomorrow. So it is a double aspect in terms of the injury."

Zero reason for Carr to come back after we lose 2-3 games with either backup. He is done.

Has anything been said about the concussion?

He is currently in concussion protocol….whatever that means.

He’s not a left handed QB.

All the Carr haters will be begging for him with these two back-ups the rest of the way.

Why, the season is basically over.

Is this a similar injury situation to what dejounte murray had with the pels?

He fractured his wrist as well and was out a month.

Much different. A basketball player needs his off hand for dribbling, ball handling and his shot. A QB really only needs his off hand for getting the snap. That can be lessened a bit by staying in shotgun and not going under center. It's happened before.
