A friend of my brother's told him during the pregame show on Saturday that Carr would be the quarterback by midseason

My brother told him he was insane and full of shit, because the spring game meant nothing, new coaching staff etc.

Now he's like hmmm . . .

BTW on the argument that you can't teach accuracy somebody taught Josh Allen accuracy somehow, and he went from being a very inaccurate college quarterback to an NFL superstar in his third year (he was very inaccurate during his first two seasons). It's very rare though.

Back to the board

    - Yes, I’m filing footwork under mechanics* - By ny1995 September 7, 2026 at 12:31:00 PM
      - but he has great mechanics when he is in rhythm, they just break down when he has to improvise under pressure - By DoctorD September 7, 2026 at 01:13:47 PM

  - he has always been zippy and accurate with screens and even slants. i feel the intermediate is inconsistent and I don't ever remember him completing one deep pass in stride. his main issue is decision making* - By 6p September 7, 2026 at 11:26:37 AM
    - Your memory is lacking; but I will comment that I think his accuracy from late last year until now has been a step below what he showed early on. - By WOK September 7, 2026 at 12:01:11 PM
      - man. that was early in the season too* - By 6p September 7, 2026 at 12:07:09 PM
        
        Yup, when he was HIM* - By WOK September 7, 2026 at 12:10:22 PM
    - "Decision Making" is his biggest issue imo (m) - By Spirit September 7, 2026 at 11:33:16 AM
      - He made an excellent decision by accepting an over-the-top NIL payday - By gratefultread September 7, 2026 at 12:08:39 PM
  - Agreed. Inconsistent at times, poor footwork, but overall for one game into second season, raw accuracy is a relative strength for him.* - By LewisBullox September 7, 2026 at 11:22:24 AM
  - Agreed. We were marveling at his accuracy after his first college game.* - By Bluebuck September 7, 2026 at 11:21:03 AM
  - Agree. His issue seems to be with nerves* - By el fuego September 7, 2026 at 11:20:24 AM
