Quote:Actually, Carr won his starting spot by default because the Raiders found out Schaub no longer has an NFL arm. If judging by preseason performances, both Bortles and TB outperformed the other rookies.


As far as who is the best rookie QB this season, we need at least four or five more games to make a more sound decision.

 

If your eyes haven't shown you that Carr has looked the most pro ready of the class coming out of the gates, then quite frankly I can't help you.

 

I'm not a fan of the QB or the team, and I don't expect him to have the best career of them all when all is said and done, but his readiness compared to the others has been somewhat surprising.  But it makes sense, given that he basically grew up with his brother in the NFL learning what to expect through him at a young age.

 

Caldwell said they all need seasoning and he was right, just some appear as if they'll need more than others before they reach full potential.  But then, I suppose some may already be there regardless.
