Who are you trying to fool? If you are going to do that type of stuff, do it with Taysom Hill.

Is Pete Carmichael trying to re injure DCarr with this nonsense?

The coaching staff and management may literally be trying to re-injure Carr. They thrive on excuses and injuries are the best excuse. Carr's injury last week was a godsend for them, all the conversation was on the injury and the bad luck and how we would be 3-0. Carr's surprising diagnosis and quick recovery were the worst luck these guys have ever had. Their excuse for an entire season melted away in a few days. Now they have what they built and they have to own it and take responsibility. Another significant injury is all they can hope and pray for. If Carr continues to struggle they will try to delay firing Carmichael until the season is over and then offer him as a sacrificial lamb but that might not cut it. People might start asking questions about the salary cap and why we can't move on from Carr and have to resign struggling aging injury prone players to avoid cap hits. Injury is this regime's greatest hope to buy themselves another year.
