Raiders name Derek Carr starting QB
Report: Raiders tab Derek Carr as starting quarterback
Posted by Mike Wilkening on September 1, 2014, 6:21 PM EDT Derek Carr The Raiders are going with a rookie at quarterback to begin the regular season. Fox’s Jay Glazer reports the Raiders have switched starters in advance of Sunday’s opener at the Jets, with Derek Carr getting the nod over Matt Schaub. According to Glazer, players have been informed of the decision. The call to go with Carr comes after the second-round pick from Fresno State completed 11-of-13 passes for 143 yards and three TDs in the preseason finale vs. Seattle. Schaub sat out the game with elbow soreness. Schaub, whom the Raiders acquired from Houston in the offseason, was just 24-of-47 passing for 218 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in exhibition play. He was sacked three times. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...g-quarterback/ |

Take away Bortle's TD vs Miami. He scored that TD in garbage time, 4th quarter down by more than 2 scores. Apparently that doesn't count. Take Away Bortle's TD vs Cinci in garbage time, down by more than a touchdown. Take away both TDs vs the Colts, both scored in garbage time when down by 34 points in the 4th quarter. Those clearly don't count. Take away the TD vs the Titans. It came late in the 4th quarter, down by more than a TD so it clearly didn't count. So according to CP's statistics, Blake Bortles has only thrown 3 legitimate TD passes on the season. The rest were garbage. So how is Derek Carr worse? |

The Raiders won their last SB with a retread QB in 1983. The NFL just doesn't work this way anymore. Times have changed and so have the Raiders. Their trying to draft a QB and meanwhile the Chiefs are trying to do what use to work. The book is still out on Carr. |

Yep, we are trying to play 1980's ball. We played it in the 90's and it didnt even work then! We got what 2 play off wins in the 90's? maybe 3. Last one was in the 93 season in Jan of 94? Raiders may suck and suck really bad, but at least they are trying with a QB. We are just trying to stay at 7-9 to 10-6 with hopes of squeeking into the play offs. There really hasnt been that many qb's to draft lately though. The one that was out there we completely ****ed that tank job up. lol I still stick by we arent going to be serious contenders for at least 3-5 years. |

If the QB doesn't wear red and gold, he's not worth time or mention/CP

Four of the last 10 SB winning QBs are retreads. Five of the last 10 SB winning QBs were found outside of the draft's first round. That's the data. |
