H2o Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Romo only missed on game with the same injury. Same for Cam Newton. That injury cost Romo his job to Dak and if I'm not mistaken he missed 5 weeks before he was deemed ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Carr was so intent on tidying up that day, on Oct. 25, 2015, that by the time Jones saw him, the quarterback had two armfuls of wrappers, plastic cups and discarded beer bottles. He was about to go out on the field and he was looking for a trash can. He couldnt find one, Jones recalled. I said, Derek, why dont you let me take care of that? I know you have to go play the second half. He just looked at me, like, Thank you and ran out to the field. Kind of Anti Raider no? Almost sounds like an OCD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) He had so many injuries in his career, it's hard to keep them all straight. Carr looks like a franchise QB. He's the type of guy you can easily envision winning titles. I just wonder how much injuries will end up derailing that. Carr is relatively young, and will have to deal with this for the remainder of his career. Injured QB's (especially back injuries) don't fare well in this league. His career could very well end up being Romo esque imo. Edited October 3, 2017 by DriveFor1Outta5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaCrispy Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20887809/oakland-raiders-quarterback-derek-carr-leaves-game-lower-back-injury Some comments he made really took me aback. "I think he just got roughed up there," Del Rio said. "He got tackled, and something caused his back to spasm up. I didn't see much that would indicate that he would be injured, but his back spasmed up, so that's what it was." Told that Del Rio said it was a spasm, Carr said, "I'm glad he knows. That's awesome." "It won't be fun," Carr said of the flight back to Oakland. "But at the end of the day, no one really cares. I'll do my best to get comfortable, but as soon as I see my two baby boys, it will feel a little bit better." I don't know boo about the guy, but he comes off as a dick, to me. It's funny you post this Gugs...during training camp Derek, his family, and Del Rio were being interviewed by Derek's brother, David...I remember thinking at the time that I thought it was odd how he spoke to his HC- he was probably just playing around, but one could definitely take it as being a little disrespectful to his superior...I kinda just brushed it off as never really hearing Derek speak before, but after your post, it does somewhat seem like he has a wise-ass attitude with his HC.

Not for nothing, but you're likely mistaken about the power structure of most NFL teams. Hard to consider Del Rio the superior in that relationship when you take a look at their pay. It is much more important for Del Rio to keep Carr happy than it is for Carr to keep Del Rio happy. I'm not disagreeing with your overall point that there needs to be respect between likely the two most important roles on each NFL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Mom had a fractured vertebrae. She went to the grocery store every day. Shes 79 yrs old and the doctor said she should just keep moving if she can tolerate it...its the best thing for a person with that kind of injury. I guess its a pain tolerance issue.

CanadianFan Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 EJ looked better than this year's Carr. Careful what you wish for. EJ played a lot calmer in relief. But that last throw was a typical EJ mistake. I like our chances against him because he'll be too excited and make the usual EJ mistakes. His biggest weakness is the mental aspect. Which is TT's strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinTheMagician Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Carr could well be out for Bills. From NFL.com: Carr's return can't come soon with the Raiders set to play the Chargers in Week 6 and Chiefs in Week 7, two division rivals, before squaring off with the upstart Bills. It's not clear -- not yet -- if he'll be available for any of those contests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
