Great news! 15 more years of mediocrity
Derek Carr wants to play football until he’s 45 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...-until-hes-45/ Tom Brady plans to do it. Russell Wilson hopes to do so, too. Now, Derek Carr has joined the 45 club. “I feel like I can play another 15 years, without a doubt,” Carr said Wednesday, via Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com. “Nothing’s hurting. It’s the middle of camp, and I feel great. I feel strong, I feel fast, I feel explosive. And I think it’s just the way we train now.” Carr turned 30 in March. He feels 66.6 percent of that age. “I feel like I’m 20,” Carr said. “I honestly believe this — that our generation, the way we can take care of our bodies with football, I think 30 is the new 20. . . . That comes from science, and that comes with more understanding.” Plenty of quarterbacks may want to play into their 40s, and they may physically be able to do so. With so many great young quarterbacks entering the league every year, however, only the best of the best will have the privilege of sticking around that long. “I honestly feel stronger, faster, better than I first did when I got to the NFL,” Carr said. “And that comes with more knowledge on how to train, how to eat, how to take care of your body. And that takes a little bit of money sometimes, but it’s definitely worth it. . . . Because I’m sitting here in year eight, and I remember people ahead of me talking about year eight like, ‘Yeah, I’m miserable,’ and they can barely walk out of bed. I’m blessed, man. I don’t have those problems. And I’ve had broken bones. But the way they rehab and stuff nowadays, I feel great.” Feeling great at 30 doesn’t guarantee feeling great at 35, 40, or 45. The spirit may currently be willing. Time will tell whether the flesh is weak. More importantly, time will tell whether the flesh is strong enough for a guy currently on the fringes of the top 10 to stay among the top 32. That may be the biggest challenge for guys who aren’t among the best in their prime; it becomes harder to stay among the good enough later in their careers. |

Carr's recent performance is better than mediocre. He'll never be top 5, but is top 10.
Gruden is infamous for dumping QB's he doesn't want and despite the media trying to hype that, it hasn't happened. Even with supposedly better QB's on the board in the first round. Every team would like to have Mahomes. No one does and no one will. I'm glad KC fixed the OL. While it pains me to see the Chiefs do so well, it would be a crime against the entire NFL fan base to not protect Mahomes so we all get peak QB performances for a long, long time.

Carr is a serviceable NFL starter. I would’ve definitely taken him over guys like Cassel, Palko, and some of the other shit we ran out there. But that’s not saying a whole lot.

AFC West Starting QBs the last time the Raiders won the Division (2002):
Raiders-Rich Gannon Broncos-Brian Griese Chargers-Drew Brees Chiefs-Trent Green With Brees now retired, I would assume Brady is the last active player left from that year league wide.

Wow… sneaking up on that 20 year mark. That’s one hell of a commitment to excellence.

I always thought Carr would be better.
He is just missing "it". For every second of hope and excellence, he delivers hours of despair and failure. Not what you want to see in your franchise QB.

But that’s exactly what we want to see in the Raiders franchise QB.
Good enough to not be replaced. Not good enough to be a threat to the throne. Beautiful QB Purgatory.
