I’m glad Mickey went all in and sold the future for Brees and Sean, obviously it didn’t work out, but it was the right move. What was not the right move was selling the future for fucking Derrick can’t read a defense Carr and Dennis keep doing what you’re doing Allen. This may be a bit reactionary but I truly think we’re are in one of the worst spots in the entire NFL. all of our stars are aging and on shitty contracts. we don’t have a QB, we don’t have a coach, and our drafting has been mid at best since 2017. I have a feeling it’s gonna be a long couple years for us. rant over
Hindsight is 20/20 with this. We knew what we had with Jamies and yes he didn’t have much to work with for receivers, he was still worse than mediocre. We needed to get a new QB.
Carr was the best option available. We were not getting Rogers as he was only going to be traded to an AFC team. We were not going to draft one of the top QBs. We could have tried to sign Minshew or any other back up QB, but even that is just throwing a dart at the wall and hoping they live up to their potential.
Carr was never going to light up scoreboards. We got him to get a game manager that can methodically move down the field and make solid, quick decisions. We signed him to the #15 QB contract. Just wanted middle of the pack play.
