If only Ric could take the battle red and deep steel blue rod out of its repository for a few seconds......
Dakota brings up a point. this is what Clutch City brings, this is why the Jedi ultimately defeated the empire. This is why Maxwell destroyed the Suns, thats why Robert Horry hits game winners, this is why Mario Elie blew Joe Klein the kiss of death, this is why Hakeem worked MVP David Robinson, this is why Sam Cassell brings the Clippers to the playoffs You get it Texan fans? Us ROCKETS FANS get it. There is a major difference from that FOOTBALL TEAM in BUFFALO with a 35point lead vs the ROCKETS who were down 3-1 and 0-2 to Phoenix. There was an obvious difference from that Team with David Carr vs that team with that dude who didnt have such great stats. Get it? I hope you guys figure it out.
i guess you dont understand what Heart is and Heart is needed to win Championships. i guess you enjoy heartless football, so you watch the Texans get whipped all the time. look at Tom Brady, he's not as mobile or as strong as David Carr, but he has.. heart. can you find it? do know what heart does? heart.
no; not at all. i'm anxious to see what he does next week. frankly, i think this is all part of kubiak's grand plan. like the first 15 plays of a game he scripts on saturday, i think kubiak had 2006 scripted back in june. he was gonna build carr up before camp, show him the support the organization has never given him, and then spend the rest of the year methodically stripping him down bit by bit, to test what he had. my guess is the "bench carr" card has been in his back pocket all along, he was just waiting for the right time to play it. it's actually kind of fascinating; it's like kubiak is jamming 4 years of what SHOULD HAVE BEEN happening into a single season and i'm anxious for it to play out.
Vince didnt turnover the ball so he did play better than Carr obviously but he still has a lot to prove. The Titans are playing the Jags, Ravens, Eagles, Giants, and the Colts before returning to Houston. I would be surprised if they won any of those games. Back to the real topic....I just dont see Carr doing well against the Giants but he is so inconsistant which makes me a very confused fan.
geez. and all this time, i thought it was, you know, stupid stuff like talent, coaching, some luck.... but all it takes is heart, huh?
Ric I like your support but unfortunately you are reading way too much into this. Carr SUCKS. If Sage coming into the game and making this offense look like a NFL offense didn't prove that too you I don't know what else will. Carr is flustered, shell shocked and not a natural leader. he's got a good arm but thats about it.
For the love of Christ, can we please stop acting like Carr has never played like Sage did yesterday. Hell, he did it last week.
Im so glad you finally made a point that had something to do with football. Lets see - in 2005 - the Patriots only had SIX pro-bowlers on the team. In 2004 - Dillon only rushed for over 1600 yards. The Patriots have been stacked, expecially on defense. Is it fair to say that Brady is better than Carr? sure. Im not defending Carr anymore but your points dont make sense.
Since he did it for one half, this Super Duper Sage, a career-backup QB, is automatically better than Carr. That's some damn good logic right there.
WTF? I wonder who threw those FOUR 100-Yard game passes to Andre Johnson. I wonder how many passes where DC hits AJ right on the numbers AJ has dropped. I don't keep that stat. Do you think AJ does? That F*cking makes me so f*ck*ng mad, man. Seriously. You've been in the locker room with them? Yeah... since he played DEFENSE, OFFENSE, and SPECIAL TEAMS all by himself, and stuff. what a loser! EXACTLY, RocketMan95... I see the frustration on most of these Carr haters.
Yep. The QB is the only person responsible for a team's success or failure. It has absolutely nothing to do with a good defense or pass blocking. It's all David Carr's fault that he's been sacked more times in his first four seasons than anyone in NFL history. Duh.
It seems the Carr homers are the frustrated ones as their loverboy was finally benched because of his piss poor performance.
Actually, I was happy he was benched. I think it was obvious he was having a terrible game and would try to force too much in the second half to make up for his mistakes. I'm sorry your Super Duper Sage isn't starting next week though. I hope you and the others smiling yesterday make it through.
When did I ever say that benching him was INCORRECT? It was a correct decision by Kubiak. DC had a bad game. OK... it was a poor performance. Who is saying here it's not?
Kubiak actually told Carr he would bench him if he turned the ball over one more time. What happened? He turned the ball over one more time, so Kubiak benched him...like he said he would. Contrary to the thread title, Carr is not "done" he was just being punished for playing like crap by a coach who was just doing exactly what he said he would do. That being said, I think the Giants game is gut check time for Carr. Big time. Should be interesting (and telling) to see how he reacts to all of this come Sunday.
