Isn’t that what you said about Mayfield?

I did, and was clearly wrong. He just didnt fit with the Panthers. McCaffery didnt fit in their system either, and played much better when he was traded to the 9ers. It also didnt help that Ruhle had lost the locker room by then and was eventually let go, after which they started to win games with Wilkes. Mayfield did much better in the Rams scheme for 4 games, even tho it didnt translate to a winning record, but by then, the Rams had mailed it in. Carr should do better because the Saints have a better D than the Panthers did at the time, so he wont have to be playing from behind so much, tho he's proven he can do that. There also doesnt seem to be the instability at the HC position that Carolina had. And the division is even worse now than last year with the decline of the Bucs. We'll see.
