The Jonses preffered to go with a known commodity vs someone unfamiliar. You never know how things work out. Kirk isn't lighting the world on fire in atlanta and I think Carr is performing better than I thought he would. Dak will be fine but not worth 60-90 million more. But good on Dak for backing Jerry into having to give him an extension. That last deal he signed 4 years ago set the stage for this latest extension knowing Jerry wasn't going to like the alternatives any better than extending Dak at the highest rate. Dak and his team deserve credit

100% guarantee Micah isn't going to be playing on that 20M 5th year option! Not a chance. lol He will hold out just like CD. Bosa makes 34M a year. Micah is probably looking for significantly more than that since the cap has increased since Bosa signed his deal.

Carr was in a bad situation for his entire career. He never had a chance. The Raiders have been a mess. He's always had more upside than Dak. I'm not fooled by Daks 400 yard 4TD performances against the skins and Giants. He's a stat complier who shrinks in big games. There are a lot of QBs in this league on par or better than Dak who just need a change of scenery. We see it with Carr, Mayfield, Geno Smith, and we might even be able to add Sam Darnold to that list soon. Dak just got lucky he landed in Dallas and had a solid OL and a full compliment of offensive weapons from day 1. This 2024 offensive is the worst he's ever had to play with and we are seeing his play suffer as a result. His new contract is the worst decision I've seen jerry make in a long time.

yeah, his entire point was that micah wouldn't be playing on that option, and any new deal would lower his cap hit lol. do you just like to argue?
Also was Carr not on the Saints last year? The change of scenery effect was put on pause, or what? or was it that he didn't get teams like the skins and giants? Wait he DID play the giants. And got the terrible panthers twice. And the terrible patriots etc etc. and yet just a ho hum year, missed the playoffs in a division where the winner went 9-8. odd. but yes. these last two weeks he's been great.

that's not to mention that the raiders had one of the best OL's in the league. and he had amari (who came to dallas and became i guess the weapon carr never had?) lol

You’re lying to yourself if you actually believe that. Lol Carr is playing on a terrific football team that will destroy us again if we’re good enough to make the playoffs and have to play them again. His offense and running game are ranked 3rd and his defense is ranked 7th.

Not sure what you’re talking about but the Saints have looked great the first two weeks, but it’s a long season. They could end up hitting the skids at some point, which would expose Carr.

I guess you did because I didn’t understand your response. Wasn’t sure exactly what you were referring to.

There really isn't that much of a difference between the 3 QBs in terms of overall impact but the salary difference is substantial.
