Carr is hurting the defense

[TheSport78]

Is guaranteed? He's a 2nd year player.. Lol

I know but he's been THAT bad...on AND off the field pertaining to durability

He has plenty of company.

You don't know what's going to happen in 3 years. A 2nd year player who has been hurt and dealing with the loss of his father. Sorry nothing is guaranteed. He had been playing better before he got hurt again.

It's amazing how far he and Ware have fallen.

Could have something to do with building a defensive scheme that is completely contrary to their personnel. The guys at the top are brilliant.

Claiborne is guaranteed to not see a 2nd contract but we're stuck with Carr for 2 or 3 more years.

What are the powerball numbers for this week?

Having said that...why won't we just play our corners in press? Please?

 

[Doomsay]

yea no pass rush but Carr is FLAT OUT HORRIBLE

Both have been true recently.

The style that they have the CBs playing is a much better fit for Scandrick than for Carr. Carr needs to play press-coverage but they have him playing off-man, zone or press-bail. Carr would be a much better fit in the Seattle style defense that Kiffin talked about in the off-season.

I think the coaches know how to play him. He has just sucked, period. Quit making excuses.

Carr covered Jackson well in philly,he needs to do it again.

I'd rather see Scandrick on Jackson and Carr on Cooper...

 

[CaptainMorgan]

Speaking of.... Sterling Moore played pretty well again today

 

[tommydo08]

Carr missed practice during the week because he was sick. He didn't seem to be going full-speed out there.

They can't match the scheme to fit every player.

It was discussed ad nauseam when Carr was signed about him being a press-man coverage CB.

Claiborne is guaranteed to not see a 2nd contract but we're stuck with Carr for 2 or 3 more years.

You say he's not guaranteed, but all he needs is three good games next year and he'll get a good one. That's it. Three, maybe four good games.

And when I say good- I don't mean good for the team.

He was playing well early in the season. He's not there mentally. When he does press, he gets worked over, too.

It's now apparent why KC wanted no part of bringing him back.

Yeah, I'm sure that KC knew he would play really well in 2012 and the 1st half of 2013 and then start to struggle.

 

[lwehlers]

i dont know whats happened to him but he is struggling so bad now its almost worth benching him

I also agree that two of the highest paid players on the team in ware and carr are just killing this defense right now. those guys and lee unable to stay healthy are the whats holding this defense back.

 

[Risen Star]

Is this the thread where we pretend Brandon Carr used to be an elite player and we're all mystified to why he's not now?

He's got no front seven. A cornerback is useless without it.

 

[Risen Star]

the secondary looks terrible because we do nothing to interfere with the QBs abiliity to drop back and throw darts.

Smart man.

Now how do you fix that?

Wait, I know. Spend more on the secondary.

 

[Bleu Star]

It's time to shadow opposing #1 WR's with Orlando Scandrick.

Bottom line.

lol... As much as I love my boy OScan, we really need Carr to snap out of it. Mike Jenkins said to tell everyone hello. Don't shoot the messenger.

Ware is hurting this defense more than any defensive back... We are getting absolutely no pressure up front. The only luck we have next year is Spencer plays for cheap and his knee becomes healthy and we draft some young talent. Like Clowney just miraculously ends up in our lap.
