BayRaider Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Posted this in the Raider section: 2 years and pretty high salary for a “backup”. The only way Mariota doesn’t start this year is if Carr plays fantastic all season without one of his famous 3 game horrid streaks. Not that Mayock/Gruden are encouraging Carr to fail. They will probably get him a WR and do everything they can to put him in a position to succeed. A lot of Titan fans may keep their eye on this situation.

There's no question he's better than Mariota but he needs to be kicked into another gear bc the way he's playing won't work. Hopefully with some actual receiving options, he gets better this year. Wasn't working with much last year since AB really screwed us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't working with much last year since AB really screwed us I think WR is the only position we actually struggled at. He had one of the better pass pro lines, a good young RB, a solid young FB and a top 5 receiving TE. Other QBs have made much more with less, but I agree the AB debacle really set us back on O. Still worth the risk imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still worth the risk imo. That's really the only position I was alluding to. The rest of the cast is there. If we can put together a solid WR group, he has no more excuses. I firmly believe Jeudy or Lamb is the 12th pick as a result and one third round will be used for the position as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drd23 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 So how many of those incentives are included in the 2yr, $17.6m deal? Could make a big difference as to whether he was really signed as a potential starter, or just a high end back-up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I like this contract as we couldn't go without a back up plan. Problem is both QB's haven't been the same since their 2016 injuries and are probably the nicest QB's so the competition won't get nasty. But if it does it'll bring out the fire in both of them.

Prob because He'd rather make 5 milly a year riding the pine on the NFL bench than be flippin burgers in Oahu Raiders should pick Jeudy but will prob go Ruggs.

Chargers Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Hopefully Mariota can bring back what he was in 2016. I think Gruden is good coach to build Mariota back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
