Quote:Once you give Bortles a competent offensive line and a "blow the top off" wide receiver, any thoughts that Carr is better will quickly disappear. I strongly believe that Bortles is a couple pieces away from being a top-five quarterback.

 

I recorded the Jet's/Raiders game, but so far have only watched the first offensive series by the Raiders.  One thing I noticed so far is that Carr is a pretty darn good QB.  He's getting ALOT of help though.  He's got a team with a better HC, and thier O-Line is alot better then ours.  Their running game is also very good, so the teams are having to respect Murray, which opens things up for Carr...  

 

If I was to be totally objective, I think at this point the Raiders offense overall is just superior to ours.  That includes thier QB...  But I think the main thing that puts thier offense and thier QB ahead of ours is that dog gone O-line of theirs.
