I remwmber several people on here coming to AB's defense whether it was his helmet issue or his feet. Much like Carr, there was excuse after excuse and people siding with AB over Mayock/Grudensrv5490 wrote Fri Nov 18, 2022 11:15 pm:4D chess baby.
BTW, who was it that was making that argument on these boards?

Is AB getting revenge for Derrick releasing the secret clubhouse video.Sold My Soul wrote Fri Nov 18, 2022 9:47 pm:FUCK STICK TROLLS SOFTEE.
One player who has caught some strays from the wide receiver over the years is Raiders quarterback Derek Carr. Brown randomly decided to target Carr again on Snapchat by posting a picture where the quarterback is photoshopped to be much more overweight than he actually is.

My hope is that McD showing Davis that Carr isn't the guy is the fantastic job being done by the coach.16 to 88 wrote Fri Nov 18, 2022 3:56 pm:How many people on here watch the low lights of his "play" and post them here? What do you think McDaniels is doing every week he meets the owner? He isn't going down with that guy under center, he drew up a contract that said he didn't believe in him and McDaniels is going to want his guy. If Carr is around next year it will be in a Garoppolo style contract and role but I personally believe they (McD/Z) don't want to see his face at all.

I posted a couple of days ago that it appears that his contract looks like a compromise between the FO and Davis with the way it’s structured.16 to 88 wrote Fri Nov 18, 2022 3:56 pm:No way no how.
Have you forgotten the contract he signed? He's totally cuttable now and I don't believe for a second that McD/Z want him around that's why the contract was written as such in the first place with Marks blessing. Otherwise it wouldn't have been written at all. They gave him enough rope to hang himself with that deal and he has been doing it week in and week out and the cherry on top was last weeks post game.
Many on here were convinced Mark was going to dip into the Raiders past and hire another GM and/or HC from the past and lo and behold he did nothing of the sort. Zero reservations Carr was the #1 topic on the table and the contract was written up as a one year prove it deal and Derek is proving to Mark every week he's not the man.

Not saying you’re wrong,but I think that would be the wrong move.We need to get from under that contract and next year is the window.GUYDON wrote Sat Nov 19, 2022 6:49 am:Carr may very well be back for a year, but it will be with a high draft pick rookie waiting in the wings.

Hate when opposing fans are right.
Following a loss that was worthy of tears, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr turns on the waterworks and slams teammates for not caring as much as himself.
There is no bias in the world quite like that of a Kansas City Chiefs fan with disdain for the Las Vegas Raiders. In the wake of quarterback Derek Carr’s emotional post-game press conference from Sunday, however, I don’t believe bias plays any role in negative talking points against the Raiders QB.
After a disappointing loss to the Indianapolis Colts— a team led by a first-time head coach, an analytics specialist as an offensive coordinator, and a previously benched 37-year-old quarterback under center—Carr was rightfully upset. The way in which he shared his feelings, though, was rather pathetic.
I don’t mean to say that men shouldn’t cry, or that the Raiders’ season hasn’t been worthy of tears. I mean to point out the prestigiousness of NFL head coaching and starting quarterback roles. There are only 32 individuals who don each of those titles every week, and they come with a great deal of pressure and expectation. The NFL is the most cutthroat professional sports league and there is a short leash on each of those individuals ahead of every season. For Carr to believe that he is deserving of any lesser expectation because of how passionately he feels about the Raiders’ organization is what I find pathetic.
I can only imagine the ease of devotion to an organization that not only supports you throughout an objectively unsuccessful career but pays you as if you have been elite. That’s a feeling that I cannot even remotely connect to, as each of my employers has demanded at least above-average performance from me. Carr has repeatedly finished seasons at the bottom of the top third, or right at the league median in passing yards and touchdowns, and yet, the Raiders handed him a contract that made him the seventh highest-paid QB in the league on an annual basis.
In his blubbering post-game spiel, he made repeated remarks suggesting a lack of overall buy-in from the locker room. He said, “As a leader that pisses [him] off.” My overwhelming confusion with the outcry of support that he has received online following the presser is simple: if he is the leader of the locker room, as the longest-tenured individual on the team, is it not his responsibility to create that buy-in? If he is unhappy with the locker room culture, is it not his job, as the leader, to correct it? If he feels so strongly about “this place” and is so pissed off about lesser feelings from his teammates, is there not a better way to go about it than crying to the media?
Make no mistake, I absolutely hate the Raiders and have been an outspoken Derek Carr naysayer for the better part of a decade. Truly, though, I find myself as perplexed as ever by his supporters today. He is an incredibly average NFL quarterback and has been nothing more for the past eight years. He has yet to win a single playoff game, has more third and fourth-place divisional finishes than he does runner-ups—he’s never won and won’t any time soon—and has skated by on the most blatantly astounding mediocrity that NFL fans have borne witness to over the past decade.
Josh McDaniels probably won’t make it past next week as the Raiders’ head coach, and the next hottest seat in the building is the $121.5M throne that Derek Carr sits upon. It is difficult to comprehend the organization’s fiscal commitment to him, and he clearly doesn’t see the same sheen on the silver spoon in his mouth as I do. If I could offer a bit of advice, should he see this and not block me, it would be simple: either get a grip on your locker room or start working on your clipboard grip in case someone out there is dumb enough to pick up that contract of yours.

I think the entire AFC West loves our QB. They know as long as Carr is behind center, the Raiders most probably are going to fold and stumble long before they return to greatness.Opoponax50 wrote Sat Nov 19, 2022 11:17 am:We've known for years that Chiefs fans love our QB.
To me, that speaks volumes more than any set of statistics could ever hope to convey. You don't even have to look at the win-loss column when your most hated rival wants your most important player to stay on your team.
Bonus points for the writer of that piece. The overwhelming majority of Chiefs fans can't write more than a coherent sentence or two before devolving into some sort of meth addled singularly toothed mish-mash of hillbilly gibberish.

Even if Carr isn’t the worst QB in the league, which he’s not, he isn’t dangerous either. With Mahomes it feels like no lead is ever safe, that the chiefs could rip off 21 points in a matter of minutes. Or that once they get ahead you could be buried in an avalanche of points. Carr led offenses are slow and predictable. If you get a lead against the Raiders you can get comfortable. If you’re behind you always have a chance to catch up. I hate it.signal wrote Sat Nov 19, 2022 11:31 am:I think the entire AFC West loves our QB.

And they know, if they want Carr to fold or just simply quit, they merely need to hit him a couple of times.

According to ESPN’s Dan Graziano, the Raiders could consider releasing Carr during the offseason in order to avoid paying the final three years of his contract. This would be an easy transition, as Carr’s contract features zero future guaranteed money.HesterLayes » Sat Nov 19, 2022 2:09 pm
Yep.Many of us have been saying that.Sold My Soul wrote Sat Nov 19, 2022 2:03 pm:According to ESPN’s Dan Graziano, the Raiders could consider releasing Carr during the offseason in order to avoid paying the final three years of his contract. This would be an easy transition, as Carr’s contract features zero future guaranteed money.
The Raiders have a short window to make up their mind, as Carr has a $7.5 million bonus that is guaranteed as long as he’s still on the roster three days after Super Bowl LVII. While cutting him altogether would incur a $5 million cap penalty no matter what, that’s a small amount if the Raiders already have other ideas at the QB position.
