It allowed me to see Carr from the perspective of a defensive player. He processes slowly. He stares things down. There was plenty of time for me to read his eyes and figure out exactly what he wanted to do. Playcalling is atrocious, but he’s a major issue as well. I’d be fine just rolling with Jameis, Hill, or Haener and eating the dead cap to end the experiment as we fire our coaches and go in a brand new direction next year.
I saw what you were talking about with Carr and hesitation/slow decision making. It happened before my eyes again last night on the 1st quarter red zone trip when Carr tried to lob it to the back of the end zone to Shaheed. Shaheed was open immediately for a quick TD, but Carr just watched him without throwing. Shaheed went left, the right to the back of the end zone but the defender got there.

The Playcalling MAY not be horrible. If you look at the game differently, plays are exactly the same - the difference is those plays were designed for Drew Brees. Brees had one of the fastest releases I have ever seen. During his last season, with 11 broken ribs, or whatever - it was crazy - Brees still had a quick release, but his arm was weaker because he was half dead.

The problem is this offense is geared toward Brees' unique style. Put a younger Brees in the cockpit, and that offense probably hums.

That's Carmichael's problem, as well as the organization - they can't move on from Brees. Bringing in QB's isn't going to cut it. Only Mahomes and maybe 1 other QB has the read and react time Brees has.
