I just wanted to recap...

This thread was started 13 hours ago...and we're already on page 39. If that's not a sign this was about David Carr, I don't know what is.

Let's see.. according to my calculations, that's 3 new pages per hour. Or a new page every 20 minutes. Wowzers. :beer:

Anyone know the big 3 tell them to hurry up because "he" will not do a pay cut, you can forget it.

Its kind of like he hit the lottery. He has gotten paid mega millions for doing a poor job as qb. David is a great person but he has never earned what the Texans pay him. If anything he is grossly overpaid but so were some other Texans that were released. Thanks Charlie!

What I have heard, Hou is dragging their feet and waiting for more and more instead of making the many deals that are out there. Make me mad, do it! already, stop asking for too much and do it allready. Anyone know the big 3 tell them to hurry up because "he" will not do a pay cut, you can forget it. Anyone that knows the big 3 tell them to make a desicion and hurry up, this guy does have feelings.

Thats it. Not answering nothing.

Funny, he hardley ever showed any emotion after a big loss. Suddenly David's feelings should dictate how the franchise should conduct business? Look, I respect the guy for being thrown in the fire and for getting back up most of the time, but leadership skills arn't a dime a dozen. Either you got it or you don't. Thank you David for everything you've done, but be thankful that the Texans are trying to cut you a fair deal. The Texans NO LONGER REVOLVE AROUND YOU!
 
I'm blaming Carr for his own mistakes. Ones he has continued to make his entire 5 year tenure here in Houston and has yet to correct.


You Carr homers...I wonder sometimes...

I have no hate but common sense, intellect and the ability to not be blinded by strengths and value that do not translate to on the field production against the number on the contract.

I watch the all of the games twice. Some in the stands and some on TV and the guy went into the Fresno Fall most of the time. He is soft.

would you want the guy if you were a GM? bad QB play and a horrible contract. not exactly the type of deal you make if you want to keep your job. he is a bum and its not exactly a secret around the league thus the lack of interest.

the day the bum is driven out of town will be the day the Texans take their first steps towards respectability

You had made the comment that Carr doesnt care what happens here after he is gone and you made it sound like it was a bad thing. I was just asking the question of would you care.

Think of the worst job and the worst boss you ever had, after you left did you with that company well or try and keep track of how they were doing?
Click to expand...

My point was that QB75, Hulk75, and every other fan who thinks we should continue to start David Carr is not a Houston Texans fan, and are in fact David Carr fans... Most of them are also from the state of California. Since your location isn't displayed, I'd bet that you are also from the sunshine state, and care more about the David Carr succeeding, than the Texans succeeding.

IMHO, y'all aren't any better than the Vince Young fans who stopped supporting the Texans after they passed on him.

Starting David Carr again, would be just plain stupid. Regardless of the status of our OL, or the quality of their performance, we need to find someone who can produce behind them, until we get it fixed. That's what they did in Miami, Arizona, Buffalo, Baltimore, Detroit, Dallas, Jacksonville, Cleveland, etc... etc... that's what teams do, they try to find a way to win, no matter what.

I know it's easy to say that no one could have played better behind our line, but we don't know, because we wasted so much time proving that David can't.

Id rather throw our season with someone with potential (carr) than throw it with somoene with none (rosenfels)

How about the fans with blind hatred, do you think they will disappear as well?
Click to expand...

Blind hatred?? with what happened in '06, how can you say it's blind hatred. You just saw what all the "haters" have been saying for years. No matter how good the rest of the team is, Carr won't be any better than sub-par.


Now it apears that some of the players feel the same way... Moulds had only been here for one year, and he feels that way. It appears the head coach, & the GM feels that way as well.

It's not blind hatred, when we all start seeing what they've been saying for years...
 
I've been the biggest Carr supporter and if he ends up leaving I just have to say that he still has my support no matter where he goes. He's gave us all he has, no one can argue that he didn't play hard every time. We've never known the Texans without Carr and it will be a different era for the team. Its disgusting to see all the carr-haters out there, I hope you all leave if Carr leaves.

People that want Carr gone are called Texan Fans. They root for the team not just one inept player.
If 5 years of inconsistent, stumbling & fumbling play hasn't convinced you of that, nothing will.

he still has potential, and until we give him a god damn o-line then we can judge. until then give the kid a break.

I think Pitts, Weary, Winston, Hogdon, & Spencer still have potential, and we can't judge that, until we get a competent QB behind them.

PapaL said:
Has anyone really thought this rumor out? WAS has a young 1st rounder starting at QB, a proven veteran (who just restructured his contract) as a back up plus two other QBs on the roster. So the deal would be we send them Carr and out 8th overall for their 6th overall? This deal makes no sense at all. Someone is going to say maybe WAS doesn't want to pay the money for the 6th pick, well they can just pass ala MIN.

Not saying Carr wouldnt be traded, but WAS just doesnt seem like the destination.
Click to expand...

No one said anything about sending Carr to Washington. More than likely, the speculation is that we'll get a third from Oakland(that was the first rumor, that Carr was traded, and we'd here more, by the end of the day, Friday, but we didn't), then we'd probably send our third, and our 1st to Washington For their 1st. Washington has no picks in the 2nd & 3rd rounds, and that is what they are looking for, picks.

Wow, 5 year potential? In those 5 years I have managed to make child, raise him, teach him to talk and potty train him. Yet DC is still wearing the same diaper from 5 years ago. Potential? Hmmm.

The rumor that was floated early in this thread was DC and our 8th for WAS's 6th. With us "possibly" taking Quinn with the 6th pick. Its some where in the first 20+ pages.
 
This thread should have started with a disclaimer:
"Before clicking link, have half rack of beer on ice in cooler next to desk, comfy clothes and snacks already lined up and use the toilet, you will be here awhile."

By far one of the most interesting and hilarious threads in a loooong time. One of the best train wrecks y'all have put out in ages. Coming into this on page 40 is a bit overwhelming, but worth the Saturday morning time loss.

Keep up the banter/sarcasm/insider insinuations...and let me know when Carr goes North or West (or East or South).

Carry on.....:gathering:

no, that was never the rumor. The rumor started with Pascherelli(sp) saying we have a gentlemans agreement with Washington to trade up if Quinn was available. no details of the cost to trade with Washington.

It may have changed to a poster on this board saying we're sending David to Washington, but just like you said, that don't make sense.

If the Washington rumor was true, we shouldn't have known about it before draft day, & there would be no further information available at the end of the day.

The David Carr traded rumor was followed by a,"we should here more by the end of the day". That was most likely a trade to the Raiders for a third(which I'd be ecstatic if that were the case). If we were to get a third from the raiders, that would allow us to offer our third in the move to swap picks with Washington. We'd basically move up in the first, and the third rounds.

these are all just rumors, & this is the only way the trade up(without giving up draft picks) could be conceivable.

We are not going to give up draft picks to move up(not our own anyway), and Washington is not going to take David Carr alone to swap picks.
 
Today I heard we're trading DC to Notre Dame for Brady Quinn. Plus I also heard we're winning the SuperBowl "real soon."

More info not to follow.

Basically we're saying the same thing; someone "heard" of a trade that doesn't mke sense and mixed in with one that "might" sense. 41 pages later and he's still the starting QB for us. Guess the power of positive thinking doesn't apply here.

You misunderstand, I was referring to Honeymoon's attack of people who aren't from Texas, and the hope they would be gone after Carr is traded. Nothing to do with Carr as a player.

There are a lot of people on this message board that are from other states and countries that, for some bizarre reason, like the Texans, and not b/c of one player.

I welcome all of them and hope they get some Texan gear and were it around there home town.

Go Texans!
 
Does anyone see a trade for a starting QB any where in the works? I know we won't have DC when the season starts. Anyone see a deal lining up? I really don't believe we would tip our hand that we have a deal in place for another team to make a move to go any higher. Sounds too much like forcing someone's hand to me.

I have never, ever, ever, in over 1600 posts been irate, annoyed, and yelled at my computer than what your post just made me do.

I am from, born, raised, and lived my entire life, in Houston Texas.

Your not even a true Texan, your from Dallas which makes you pretty close to being an Oklahoman. And I say that with great sarcasm.

Don't care about the Texans. RRRRRRRRRRRRR. Your lucky this is a family MB.

Yeah, funny. Not funny ha ha either.

My daughter had just started 7th grade when Carr played his first game here. She's now looking forward to going off to college in a few short months.

Just a few more pieces and we'll get there.
 
It just mind boggling that the longest thread in MB history is over a stupid rumor about a trade, which anyone with a lick of sense would tell you that it would be totally moronic to make until the day of the draft.

But I guess if you're going buy anything that Len Pasquarelli sells, that would explain everything.:crazy: :gun:
 
wow this is a long thread and it's gone for carr is traded to smokescreen for brady quinn to instulting other board members to the usuall carr bashing...it's a darn good thing we keep to the topic on this board other-wise this might look silly
 
I just wish that a moderator, any moderator, would kill this thread.
