Quote:Interesting that reports were quick to declare Ted was "closing the gap" one week into practice, then the opposite was true as the actual preseason unfolded.

 

Carr is starting out of necessity and anxiousness.  Too bad for him.  I believe Caldwell was right when he said they all needed "need a little bit of seasoning and to sit back and watch for a little bit."  Like his peers, I think he could have used more time.  There's too much "bad" with that franchise for him (or any QB, rookie or vet) to overcome alone.  He can play well and still not achieve much.
