Nine starting quarterbacks who have been largely or entirely healthy and performing well enough to remain the starter over the course of the season. Nine. What the gently caress?

Arguably 10, the Niners lost their starter and their backup, who was their previous starter.

And then magic happened.

The chances are well under 50% that the raiders will have a better QB than Derek Carr in the next 5 years.

How many QBs drafted in the last 5 drafts are better than Carr? Well under 50% of them.

I'm sure there's a real, Football Business reason for this, but I choose to believe that after being benched Derek was sitting in the back of team meetings trying to get pencils to stick in the ceiling tiles.

I love that framing. Yep, that's why Carr has cleaned out his locker and won't be around the team for the final two weeks. He'd just distract people too much!

There's no football business reason; Carr just doesn't want to be there. He's been the face of the franchise for nearly a decade and a Belichick disciple dipshit and Bucky Larson rear end owner just decided to unceremoniously dump him in a particularly clunky, quasi-humiliating way.

Longer piece from Vic Tafur: https://theathletic.com/4041696/2022/12/28/derek-carr-benched-raiders-mark-davis/?source=user_shared_article

tl;dr: Mostly just says Mark Davis has wanted to get rid of Carr for a while. Gruden was initially lukewarm on Carr but Carr won him over. McDaniels made the decision to keep Carr when he was hired but became agitated when Carr would throw his offense under the bus. Tafur still believes, though, the decision was Davis's and not McDaniels's.

The Broncos QB situation is still easily the most hosed one until 2026. Nowhere else has someone they'll a) definitely still be paying till then and b) probably still have till then because they're even more hosed financially if they try getting rid of him before then

Packers is closest but at least their QB is still able to win games right now

I hope Geno gets paid but I can't imagine the new Raiders HC/GM duo would pass on the chance to draft Their Guy and compete with him on a rookie contract. Going to Stidham is a pretty blatant tank move.
