Poor franchises have poor ways.
You bring in that snake oil salesman and you deserve every bit of suffering.

Like McBugel knows how to draft a QB. He drafted Tebow.
I never thought Carr was great, but he is definitely the lesser of two evils between him and McDummy. I don’t what they were thinking when they hired him. [Reply]

Since the middle of last year, Carr has been mostly uninspiring and been carried by Jacobs when they do well. Even a mediocre QB this year could have won a handful of games and making the playoffs. Every loss minus one have been 1 score games where the offense has failed to score in entire halves. Carrs mechanics all year have gone to shit. His throws beyond 15 yards resemble punts or wounded ducks. Keeping him and paying him $30-$40 million next year would have been insanity.
Best for the Raiders to part ways, try to build a great defense while continuing to have a great running game and groom some QB while going with a bridge type QB for a year or 2.
The Raiders were 12th in PPG. Not your bogus number.
But Carr is the problem not the lousy defense that can't get a turnover to save its soul. [Reply]

They weren't.
Mark has no plan. Gruden was his plan. Then the emails were released.
At this point, nothing good will happen until he moves onto the great beyond. [Reply]

Brady is cooked.
28th in points. Average 17 ppg. But jdubya wants him. :-) [Reply]
Bucs (Brady will leave) and Jets should call about Carr due to their draft position. He seems to fit the Colts best to me but they have a top 5 pick and I can’t see them not picking a QB (finally) [Reply]
