The insult only fits if it fits and was not intended for any specific individual. If you feel that was directed at you then you need to have a conversation with yourself and figure out why you feel that way.DC said he was trying to be too aggressive.
I kind of find it funny... for so long the whining was about him not being aggressive enough and game 1 into the season when he really went aggressive (to a fault) all the whiners about him not checking it start whining about him being too aggressive.
1 game. It is one game against an extremely good defense. On top of that a new system and not playing in pre-season at all.
I am interested to see the game tomorrow... maybe there is something for me to see that will turn me into a chicken little and join the whiners but I am really going to want to see what we do in more than 1 game to make any real judgements about anything.
One thing is very plain from what I can see from the highlights.... Adams is a weapon that there seemed to be no defense against. Every highlight I saw he was open. The only one that the defender had stayed with him at all was actually the TD catch.
Maybe watch the game before you start hurling insults. Check out the game highlights and that all-22 footage tweet I posted upthread as a good preview. No one has said Carr should be benched. Or that he sucks. Only that he sucked last weekend. He did. It's okay. It was the first game in a new offense against a good team in a high pressure division game without a single preseason snap. Carr's been good/great in the past. I'm still optimistic he'll be so in the future, FTR. But just as it's fair to crown his *** when he plays well, it's also fair to call him out when he's the single biggest reason the team loses a game.
I don't need to see the game to see the reaction of some so called Raiders fans. For years, all we heard was crap about being check down charlie blah blah blah Carr sucks. One game in to a new season which he was very aggressive and it bit him hard and the same people are now attacking him for being too aggressive. If you whined about that before and whining now about one game of him being too aggressive then yes, I am talking about you but not you personally, you as an archetype. The type of person that is always going to be jump on the negative without any consideration of context or judgement outside of the emotional reaction. If that isn't you then why are you offended?
I am about to watch the game right now... but before I do, here is what I KNOW. The Dolts are one of the best teams in the league. We know that and we know the other two teams are also extremely good teams and before we even played game 1 we knew we would lose some division games. It is going to be rough and it is going to be hard. This will not be the last divisional game we lose this season. The Dolts have two game wreckers on the line and more playmakers on defense. We know the Oline is a weak point on this team. We know this is a new system. We know that clear stars did not play a snap in the preseason. We know that it was one game and we have a season to play.
