But many on the forum have maintained that he sucks (or some form of that opinion). I can’t agree that his performance (especially with the Saints so far) warrant that opinion.

But he doesn't suck. Not by your definition and not by the generic definition. I'd argue that he's better than a majority of the QB's in the NFL right now and better than a handful of Superbowl winners as well. I'd certainly pick Carr over Dilfer and Brad Johnson.
