Nope. At least they got to the SB. Which Carr never will.

If we keep fielding a D that was the worst of last decade you're right the Raiders will never get to a SB.  To pin that on Carr is about as low brow a stance as one can have and is about the same as saying Trent Dilfer is a better QB than Marino because he won a SB.  

Clearly many factors go into a teams success and failures and blaming Carr for not taking us to the playoffs over the last few years is about as ignorant a prospective as one can have.

Fresno St GOAT

 

It's amazing what corners people will back themselves into with Superbowls, isn't it?

In the last 20 years, Culpepper pre-injury, Palmer, Stafford, Trent Green as a starter, Bledsoe as a starter, Romo, Vick, Rivers...on and on, never made a Superbowl appearance, but most would put them in the Hall of Very Good to varying degrees. 

Guys who made but didn't win one include Ryan, Delhomme, McNabb, etc. They were pretty good in their primes too. 

Yet Eli Friggin Manning yee'd some haw's to a 2-0 Superbowl record while Brees retired 1-0 and Rodgers is increasingly getting close to the same.

When talking about primes, I don't think Eli Manning ranks above or was a better QB than ANY of those listed above.

Excuses excuses. You don't remember the Falcons game because Carr sucked and didn't give the Raiders a chance to win.

No this is a terrible argument. He did suck that game. How about the rest of the season? Even with that game, the offense was top 10 in points per drive, defense was 31st in points per drive. He did more than enough for us to at least get a wild card. We just had a historically bad defense. 

That's not an excuse. It's common sense.

It's dumb to put wins and losses solely on a QB.  

It comes with the territory for head coaches and quarterbacks. Which is why Brady is praised as the GOAT for his 6 Super Bowl rings. Wins/Losses are only listed for head coaches and quarterbacks.

Only uneducated fans attribute wins and losses/ SB victories on a QB.  Football is a team game.  That is football 101.  

Pinning Wins and Losses on Head Coaches and GM's I agree with but not on a QB.  That is downright foolish.
