As I always... what is there to say?

Another week another loss. A few thoughts:
* Defense held well early bit it was crazy to expect they would.
* Jacobs is elite no matter what RB "experts" on raiderforums.com say.
* Were a long ways a way. A long ways...
* KC shifts to running at the end and slashes us with a rookie, in the 6th round...

And the most controversial? Carr is not going to lead us to the promised land, he just doesnt have the "it" factor.

Here is my thoughts on him from the Carr thread that just got closed:
QB is the most critical position in sports, we all know that. A QB has to want it. Unfortunately For us we’re left wondering in his sixth year if Carr truly wants it.

Many of us are now past the stage of suspecting football is not his main concern. That’s fine for him personally bad for us as an organization.

The biggest difference I see between Carr and truly great QBs? Carr prepares and works with idea of repetition and practice until he can do something right..

Great QBs work until they can’t do it wrong.

That’s the difference. That’s what he’s lacking. Sure he’s completing a ton of passes, sure he’s rarely turning the ball over. He’s also not taking over ball games.

There are times when his team is not helping him, this last Sunday his receivers were prime examples of this. There are also times, too often where were left shaking our heads.

I’ve said it before, probably in this thread: Carr has physical gifts any one of us would die to have, he just doesn’t seem to want to use them.

I’d love for him to “get it” to impose his will and lead us to a Lombardi. But as each year passes by it looks more and more likely that it’s not going to be him that does it.

I stand by this. Is he suddenly going to "get it" in his 7th year?

Personally I want Lawerence in 2021. Trade away one of the first picks next year to a team that is going to give us a high 1st if need be; of course ours could wind up that way.

I'd send out an APB for the 2016 Carr, I liked that one.

Carr was shit but what about all the penalties early. Gruden's group has no discipline and I don't think he could beat Fat Andy with any QB. And we may see that soon enough.

2 Carr had a bad game no question but the people who are saying Carr is done are being foolish IMO. He was done agate the Vikings game but he and the whole team bounced back.

3 This year is like 2015 the light is at the end of the tunnel but we are not there yet..

4 The Refs called no pentalites on KC really? They commited no fouls.

5 We are 6-6 with a chance to finish with a winning record how many of us saw that comming. I had us going 7-9 and we will happen that at least.

He's done Carr wire out his welcome

I tried, I held on as long as I could, but I'm just done with Carr at this point.
