machine gun kelly Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Really sucks for the Raiders. Both of these QB's were playing so well. I thought the Raiders were the only chance for keeping the Cheats out of the SB. Now I have to root for the Chiefs in the AFC, and the Cowboys as much as that kills me in the SB.

judman Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 That's the first and only thing I thought when I heard about Carr I immediately thought of a Nancy Kerrigan/Tonya Harding situation with the hoodie taking on the Gillooly role and hiring the hit on Carr.

mannc Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I'm going to make a bold prediction.... Connor Cook will see the field during the post-season in meaningful snaps.I had assumed Cook was Carr's backup...Is he not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Yeah. Other than Brady and Big Ben you'd currently have McGloin, Savage, Moore, and Alex Smith. I'm not a TT fan, but this proves how inaccurate it is only people claim that QB is our only problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I had assumed Cook was Carr's backup...Is he not? No McGloin is for the same reason EJ is the #2 here. Experienced etc.. He can't run the same offense though and I think Cook maybe can. I likened Cook to Carr during the draft process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 That sucks. Was rooting for the Raiders this year. A SB would've been a great parting gift to Oakland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been carrying around some bitterness towards the Bills since the draft for not selecting him. I'm hoping they try to work out a trade for him this off-season.

Punching Bag Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 This year seems to be crazy for injuries from before the season until now. Those are obviously crushing blows just because of the quarterbacks but even more so because their backups are Matt McGloin and Matt Cassell. Good day to be a QB named Matt. What's in a name?
