I looked up his numbers for this season and he has 19 tds and 4 int. I know people were saying he is playing solid, but that's damn good. Honestly, I think the Raiders win that division next year and will be the winner of that division for many more seasons
 
Yes, if there was a QB that maybe we could have taken, but didn't, I say it was Carr.
It would have meant him instead of D Lawrence in the 2nd.
Taking Martin in the 1st was fine, of course.
 
It would be a crime if he doesnt make the Pro Bowl this year. Might even be a MVP candidate

If he keeps up this pace for the year, he has to be considered for a Pro Bowl at the half-way point..
I'm not sure how many QBs make it.

To be honest with you, a franchise QB is much more valuable than a franchise lineman. That said, I wasn't super high on Carr when he came out. I have to admit, I am surprised by his performance so far. He wasn't terrible last year either. Looks like he is coming along nicely. Considering Rivers and Manning are past their primes, this could be the start of the Raiders' dominance if they keep drafting smart.

Carr to Cooper will be a good show to watch on AFC. Glad they aren't in the NFC.

It's not just Carr. Look at their draft picks the last two years. They aren't screwing around any more.

Alot of people rip on Mark Davis but there has been a huge turnaround in the functionality of that front office since his father passed

We would've missed out on Lawrence though

And this is why we need to get serious about getting a QB with pedigree in this next draft. Absolutely no later than rounds 1-3!!!

We all hope Romo can play at a high level for at least 3 more seasons, but injuries to Romo are seemingly getting more and more serious by the season. It's time to begin thinking about life after Romo.

Should've done it two seasons ago.
