already talking about his looks ..wow,

118-PANTHERSCAMP_0806_11.slideshow_main.prod_affiliate.57.jpg


guess coaches want him to hear gloves now
 
He's got the jazz hands down pat. Now he's just got to work on his pocket awareness, making his reads, delivering the ball on time, and making quicker decisions.
 
Those kind of look like latex gloves. I'm guessing the coaching staff made him use those rather than by his own will. Just a gut feeling though.
 
just curious (someone posted on the link) .. I know the coaching staff said they wouldn't mess with his throwing motion, but with the white gloves , is the coaching staff using that so they can better see his mechanics on film?
 
Love this post

I'm curious to see what Carr can do on the field in an upright standing position and arguably the leagues best receiver. I think the guy has the potential to be a top QB in this league as long as he's not getting sacked 70 times a season. Thank God he got out of Houston. I wish him well, just not if he plays the Bears.

Carr would get sacked behind the Great Wall of China. I can't wait to see how bad the Panthers line starts looking when he gets in there (if ever).

Just read pages 1 & 4 of that thread. The posters are pretty young, most under 30. And they don't like David's long hair. Maybe I should join and use that shetch avatar of Glam Dave.

So .... who would you take Glam Dave or Homeboy Jake ?
 
Even though DC has left us I wish him the best of luck in Carolina. He had a bad OL in front of him, which was part of the problem. He wasn't taught to read defenses adequately by the coaching staff. I mean, he's gone now. Can't people just lay off him now? If Schaub doesn't have a good OL in front of him he won't fare any better than DC. Then y'all will be blaming Schaub for something that wasn't entirely his fault. Y'all need to focus your diatribe on the OL and not on the QB. Anyway, the way I see it we should finish in second place in the AFC South behind Indy. :texflag:

carr sucked, didn't work hard to improve, was a horrible leader, primadonna, daddy's boy, poor mechanics, and to this day feels unaccountable for his failure.

opinions such as yours which blame the OL only feed his unaccountability.

the guy sucked and he is sucking in Carolina. when and if he gets a chance in Carolina and fails miserably AGAIN can we finally all admit that Carr sucked and was just another bad Casserley pick. Just because you were #1 doesnt make you good...it only makes you rich.

Is this going to be the same diatribe that you're going to use when Schaub fails?

I do not expect players to fail like some do, specifically around the QB position. Schaub has the look of an NFL QB in the pocket and certainly acts like one with the feedback coming from his team mates and coaching staff.

Carr would probably be a great Athlete's in Action QB, but it remains to be seen if he will be a good NFL back up.....well at least one that is coveted by other teams as Schaub was.
 
AJ was just on the NFL network . He was asked about Matt and said that Schaub will ask him ... " what you doing later on " .... AJ would reply ... " nothing " . Matt would then say " come by the house we'll do something " .

AJ said that never happened with Carr ( I know married with kids and beers the devil ), that he rarely interacted with the team . He said Matt makes it a point to know the fellows .
 
Am I the only one who feels all players are held accountable now ?

Am I the only one who thinks that Kubiak is able to demand maximum effort because he got rid of anyone who was'nt willing to give it ?

I guess at the end of the day , if your QB looks like a duck and quacks like a duck ... he'd better duck .

exactly, Carr was never one of the guys. he was a primadonna whose priorities are not what you are looking for when looking for a franchise QB in today's NFL. this aint freakin' Leave It To Beaver. It's probably the hardest position (NFL QB) to play in professional sports and requires a lot of dedication, time, and effort....obviously Carr had his priorities and he failed miserably.

Carr had everything handed to him on a silver platter. Apologies were premade, the owner was his fanboy, and the sheeple fans were more than happy to play along. Some of us saw that the emperor had no clothes, but we were branded as naysayers and Carr haters. We just wanted our team to win and knew that Carr would never be jack squat. Schaub has had to earn his stripes backing up Vick for 3 years and being prepared to start each week. Sadly, Schaub was probably more prepared than Carr was...and it showed.

I heard this on the radio this morning coming into work. I'm glad AJ is happy.

Well, since I used to live a few miles from Jake and know him, he's still my #1 for the Panthers. Glam Boy is gonna have to really wrestle if he wants that job. I wish I could catch the preseason because they will play David there. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Do you have the nfl network ? They're going to show lots of games so you may catch a Panther game and see both of your honeys .

What's with the gloves? He never wore them here.
Click to expand...

He started wearing one glove when they got on him for fumbling so much.

I've never heard of anyone wearing TWO gloves. I would think that throwing with a glove on wouldn't help your touch any.

The goofy thing about glove or no glove, is Carr really didn't fumble more than other QB as a percentage of sacks. He fumbled the snap a lot but that didn't have anything to do with gloves.

He must have something really weird happening in his brain.

Big Ben wears gloves sometimes ... maybe when it's cold . I think Rex Grossman might also .

Maybe he has what Chuck Knoblauch,Rick Ankiel syndrome when every problem that he has turns mental where he will never be the same again? Not that he was all that to begin with but, just saying.




Ankiel shrugged off the event at first, joking about the fact that he was the first pitcher to throw five wild pitches in an inning since Bert Cunningham of the Players League in 1890. But in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series against the New York Mets, Ankiel was removed in the first inning. Of only 20 pitches thrown by Ankiel, five went past catcher Eli Marrero, including two official wild pitches. Ankiel appeared again in the seventh inning of game five, facing four hitters, walking two, and throwing two more wild pitches. The Cardinals lost the series four games to one to the Mets.

The source of Ankiel's problems was apparently not mechanical.

The gloves are probably because the new staff has recognized Carr's inability to hold onto the ball:

Get a grip

Chicago Sun-Times, Jan 15, 2006 by Roman Modrowski

Bear hands don't mean bare hands, regardless of whether it's Bear weather. From the oversized mitts of Olin Kreutz to the vulnerable paws of Rex Grossman, the Bears' hands will be covered up today, regardless of the temperature.

In fact, it's rare to see any NFL player with exposed digits.

Bernard Berrian says he hates them, but he still wears them. Kreutz says he only wears them when it's cold, although photo evidence suggests otherwise. And Grossman won't throw a pass without them.

Form-fitting gloves have become almost as standard a piece of NFL equipment as shoulder pads. Reebok is the official glove supplier of the NFL, although some players with Nike contracts tape over the swoosh.

"We have three different types of gloves," said Chris Gallo, the director of licensed performance apparel for Reebok. "We have a lineman's glove with extra padding in the lower part of the palm and in the back of the glove. We have a receiver's glove and a linebacker's glove that has a little extra padding in the knuckles and fingers."

Quarterbacks wear receiver gloves.

Reebok has developed a technology called Griptonite, which is a sticky
substance that helps players hang on to the ball. All companies have their own version of synthetic palms.

But hanging on to the ball is just one reason players wear gloves.

GRIP

Gloves when its cold. I can understand that.

I don't understand the sometimes white, sometimes black gloves when it is hotter than hades in Carolina.

His head is not right.

I agree , he's reaching . I think that's why he was doing all the postering earlier about how great it was to be around such talent ... blah blah blah . Now he's got to show what he's got .

Sometimes it's not the arrow ... it's the Indian and there's nowhere to hide . If the gloves thing is a trick to cure his ails , it will be by restoring his confidence which will be a false confidence and the first time something goes wrong ... its back to square one .

The problem with that diagnosis is that it is incorrect as it relates to Dave. I remember last year we looked at fumbles per sacks, and Dave doesn't have a particularly high fumble per sack percentage as it relates to other QBs in the league.

The only thing that is a little high for him is the number of times he would fumble the snap. And it had nothing to do with his hands, and more to do with goosing his center in the goodies during actual games when he didn't do that during practice. See:

David Carr and The Reason for Mishandled Snaps

So basically, DC is messed in the head thinking that gloves will save him from the fumbles, when in actuality, it is probably hurting his touch, and does nothing to prevent him from center goosing during actual action or getting sacked because he isn't reading defenses.

But those gloves look like latex doctor gloves, not football gloves.
 
Someone brought a pair of those griptonites to a tailgate a couple years ago. The receiver - I think it was Andre Johnson - tossed them into the crowd and the person (Friendswood Will, maybe?) snagged them. Anyway, I put them on and could not believe how sticky they felt. It's easy to understand the concept of one-handed catches after I felt those things.
 
Sometimes when I'm at work and my hands aren't getting the right feel on the keyboard I'll wear some gloves. I have a pair for different business casual outfits.:backsout:

he is too vain to only wear one glove. he has to have it match so it looks 'bitchin'.

old Ricky came through and hit a dinger last night in his MLB debut as an outfielder. i thought he was gonna be our next ace in St.Louis but he had some mental issues with confidence and was SEVERELY hurt when his father was jailed on federal drug (cocaine) trafficking charges. his dad had taught him everything he knew and he felt bad that his dad was in prison.

larussa loves the guy and basically teared up when he hit the homer last night...well enough Cardinal talk...yall dont want to hear it anyway

cardinals ftw
