There seems to be a predictable rhythm going:

Carr plays horrible -> Carr plays nominally better -> Carr takes a hard hit and gets knocked out of the game -> Carr comes back next week and plays abysmal because he's still banged up -> (Back to step 1)

I'm requoting my own post. I was right on Monday ... back when most everyone else said we were going to see Jameis.

Like others are saying ... slow motion car crash.

You do realize there are several levels of concussion measurement, right? The bar is set incredibly low allowing entrance into the protocols with the vaguest of parameters. The league is covering their butts. Once again, it isn't the team or the players that gives the clearance. It is the league.
