Quote:I think you can certainly make a case for Derek Carr.  He is throwing for 40 less yards per game, 5 less total TD's, but 4 less INT's, QB rating is 10 points higher and accuracy is 6.6% higher.  Bortles has been sacked 17 times to Carrs 7 times.  Bortles has also been able to avoid a lot more sacks than most QB's could, but we will just stick to the numbers.  Carr has played one less game and that could of course help or hurt his stats.  Anyways, up to this point you could easily make arguments for either one.  You said he is light years ahead and then talk about objectivity?  I mean, I'm all for objective and as I said, you can make a case for Carr depending on your argument, but lights years ahead would imply there is no case which is, well, not the case.

 

Yeah, after looking at Carr's stats, I can't definitively say that BB5 is way better than Carr.  Some stats fall BB5's way, and Carr has some stats that he's got on BB5.  

 

Without watching the games as closely as I do the tacks and the jags (I've been DVRing the tacks and watching the offensive plays), I can't say whether Carr passes the eye test the way BB5 does.  But if thier stats are so close, one cannot say one is "light years ahead" of the other...

 

Unless of course you are some weirdo troll...
