NFL Analyst Brutally Rips Into New Orleans Saints QB Derek Carr

Carr threw a pivotal pick-six in the red zone on Thursday evening and also completed just one pass in 14 attempts on third downs.

Those obviously aren’t the types of things you would expect from a capable starting quarterback.

Bayless also criticized Carr for his Week 6 sideline blowup with offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael, with Bayless essentially accusing Carr of passing the buck.

Basically, Bayless does not feel that the Saints can advance very far with Carr under center, and he may actually have a point judging Carr’s career.

Carr-led teams have only made two playoff appearances (one of which he missed due to a broken leg) throughout his decade-long NFL career, and he is still without a postseason win.

What’s more, the 32-year-old has only posted winning records twice since entering the league back in 2014.

Now, to be fair, Carr spent the first nine seasons of his NFL tenure playing for the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders, who made only made the playoffs twice since 2003 (Carr was the driving force behind both of those postseason appearances). So, obviously, it hasn’t all been Carr’s fault.

But you know how the NFL works by now. When things aren’t going right, you point the finger one of two places: either the head coach, or the quarterback. So it’s no surprise that Carr is getting hit with a whole lot of criticism this season.
