Plus we are being Pete the OC back. Hopefully last year for Carr is not the trend going forward.

Just wondering everyone’s thoughts. I’m still on the fence about if we really got better.
I feel we are WAY better. It's not even close how much better Carr is than Dalton. Carr can make throws that Dalton could only dream about making.

And don't count on us being without Thomas.

Better take a big pay cut, trade or cut! Always hurt!

If the O line can't effectively run block, pass protect and utilize AK (I'm specifically calling out Pete Carmichael) in the screen game, it won't matter who is under center.

Did you notice in a lot of 3rd and short situations TAYSOM HILL was on the sidelines? Throwing to Kirkwood & Merritt. WTF?!

Predictable play calling has to change. 2012 was a long time ago.

The only way Thomas gives us a better weapon is if he steals a scalpel from the surgeon on his next season ending injury.

I don't think we have anything that should create an expectation of Carr improving. Similar weapons or worse. Similar coaching or worse. The only thing we have better is our defense but its aging.

And this is why I wonder if we got better. While I believe that almost anything is an improvement over Dalton, if the other pieces are not better than what did we do other than spend a lot of money.

Coaching was horrendous last season. With AK possibly missing 1/3 of the season and no MT, if cut or traded, I can’t see Carr or our offense being any better.

Re: Can't Guard Mike

Day....who can even keep count anymore...of wondering why Guido hasn't been banned from this site. Wonder how many more long time members he's gonna have to chase off before something is finally done. Blocked him probably 2 years ago and still see his posts, because he's constantly being quoted. Guy just gets worse and worse all the time. And he'll dish it out all day long, but can't take it. Someone quoted him a few days ago and he was bragging about his ever growing blocked list. Unsurprisingly, everyone he has blocked is someone who has had the audacity to call him out on his bs. What a friggin joke man.
