The criticism against Carr was harsh during the 2022 postseason, even though he had one of the poorest defensive lines of the season the Raiders made a huge effort, especially Carr to play in the postseason.
But itās not all Derek Carrās fault, poor front office decisions firing people needed to win games like Offensive Coordinator Todd Downing and Jack Del Rio. Carr canāt win games by himself with a poor coaching staff and weak lines.
What are people saying on the internet about Derek Carr?
The discussions on Reddit, Twitter and Facebook about the Raiders and Carr situation have never stopped. Fans consider Carr to be on the same level as Dak Prescott and Kirk Cousins, quarterbacks with high expectations but little postseason success.
A reddit user referred to the Raiders 2021 season: āā¦Gruden comes in, gets rid of key players, doesnāt get much in return. Very poor drafting. And well you guys know what happened in 2021ā¦ā
Carr had a good 2021-22 NFL season despite Grudenās drama and the lack of a good offensive line to protect his skin during the toughest games of the regular season. But regardless Carr and the Raiders made the 2022 playoffs.
