Barry McCockinner Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 6 minutes ago, bla bla bla said: I want Carr, but I think it's fair to say good QBs don't generally HAVE to come from behind but it's a good trait to have none the less. I'd bet his poor defenses and near perfect health has played a factor in him leading this category. agree - I point it out as a counter to the losing record people bring up without mentioning the defense. It's not that he's a loser giving games away - clearly he's making plays at the end of games to win them. That to me is a strong indication of a guy who can win games for you if the defense and special teams can uphold their part of the bargain. For some reason there are a lot of people who hate the idea of Carr. I believe a lot of it has to do with the losing record with the Raiders. If he played a big part in why they were losing so much I could see that argument but it's not the one people are making. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could pair them up, the Jets would instantly go from inept on offense to productive. Carr's problem this season was Josh McDaniel. Carr's problem is what it has always been; he's saddled with an awful defense. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was probably a deadpan post. That terrible defense thing cuts both ways, though. It puts him in a lot of those playing from behind situations where he has to throw the football. It’s cool that he’s been successful with these comebacks, but he also probably has a lot of garbage time yards padding his stats, too. And a relatively low number of TDs to go with those yards. So yeah, still not a big fan, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not much of a surprise. The Colts have not found a long-term solution at quarterback since Andrew Luck retired in 2018. They have cycled through three veterans — Philip Rivers, Carson Wentz and Matt Ryan — the past three years and the results have gotten progressively worse each season" This is good for us. Give me Carr and Greg Olson. One less obstacle in the way. Wasn’t this posted days ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 The solution for Jimmy G is pretty straight forward. Pay him $1.5mm or so for every game he starts, with a guaranty of $20mm. Or something like that. I think the Cousins experience is pretty relevant. From what I recall, it was only the Jets and Vikings in serious bidding for Cousins. The Jets bid more, and lost. If the prizes are Jimmy G and Carr, all it takes is two other teams bidding. Getting either of those QBs will be a long shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greensleeves Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 7 hours ago, varjet said: The Colts pick 4th. The Bears pick 1st and they have Justin Fields. There will be a QB for the Colts available who will cost 25% of what Carr costs. The Colts have not done great with the retread QBs. Irsay is not a big spender. I am sure that is the Colts' plan. As a general matter we will look at the draft rankings and predictions, but the QBs will basically gradually rise up the board. They are valuable and worth taking chances on. A QB needy team will be picking first - and I wouldn't rule out the Bears taking a QB if they fall in love with one. Fields hasn't shown he can throw in the NFL yet and he is prone to getting hurt since he looks to run all the time. I wouldn't blame them if they picked more of a pocket passer and dealt Fields. It has to at least be on the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will not fit into the new system as well and he never plays. I'm sure Zach is hoping for Jimmy G so he'll get a lot of playing time next year. Also, Jimmy G doesn't seem like a very good teammate or player that an organization can rely on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmajet Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 This really works out. Except for Brady to Bucs, Manning to Denver, and Brees to Saints - 3 times in the past how many years. Also, these were exceptions. Brady and Manning were at the end of their careers and BB wanted to prove he was the one and the Colts wanted a rebuild. Brees was injured and traded away. Colts been through three in three years. In addition to being a long shot, there is normally a ton of cash and capital sent in exchange. These block buster trades rarely work out for the team. While it is too soon to tell about Cleveland, they gave away their next 3 years in drafts and salary cap. This clearly didn't work out for Denver this year. Rodgers is an overpaid aging malcontent. Lamar is going to be too expensive in trade and if Baltimore doesn't want to pay him, why should we. Colts learned their lesson, why hasn't JetsNation?
