1) Carr was still improving as a #2 corner. Those days are over, time to face the big boys.
2) if somebody else comes in here and says something like "Carr isn't a #2 corner, teams just put their best receiver on flowers because he is an easier matchup" my head might just explode. The two were targeted equally even though Flowers faced the top guy week in and week out. 3) paying 12 million per year, or even 11 is not smart business. Especially for a team that doesn't have a franchise quarterback. 4) Carrs play improved a lot once Romeo started dialing up some blitzes and applying more pressure. The two are connected and further shows that a good pass rush is far more important that having overspent in the secondary. Just ask the eagles. |

That's a plan devised by Chan Gailey, and Gailey is one of the best offensive minds in football. It seems to me that Flowers had one of his worst games of the season against the Bills. Carr is gone, I've accepted that. And Routt is not nearly the dropoff that others believe. But I'm not going to sit here and downplay how good Carr is, or was, simply because he's not likely going to be a Chief any longer any more than I was going to overvalue what Tony Gonzales was simply because he was a Chief.
