I don't see anyone stating Carr is elite. I certainly have not. He is a top 10 QB, which just isn't an elite guy. He is good enough to win with though if the supporting cast is good. Our skill players around Carr are the best in the division, and it isn't even close.
Our defense, on paper anyway, has drastically improved this off season. Especially if Graham lives up to his billing at DC.

Carr isn’t good enough to win (again, playoff games and beyond) with a “good” supporting cast. He needs elite, just like many other QBs need to win anything of significance. And no, a team with a bottom half o-line and middle of pack defense (despite two good pass rushers, though one old/declining) does not even come close to sufficing for what Carr needs, even with a very good set of weapons.
