Why do some dislike Carr?

[TheBigTex]

Football is so often alluded to as a battle. Strategy, units, and determination of the warriors determine the outcome. But you cannot win a battle with just a rifle. You Must have artillery. WTF you ask? Car needs to learn to throw the ball too the recievers, not fire a bullet near them. AJ had to go up and expose himself too much last year, and as luck would have it, did not get hurt. Carr needs to perfect the timing and take the ball off a laser-line. The difference between Carr and The best QBs in the world, is the best know when to zip a ball on a line, and when to loft a spiral and lead a reciever down the line, or corner route or across the middle. I don't care how much he can throw passes hard enough to break bones in your hands. Get the ball to the recievers where and HOW they can catch it. Houston has World class recievers. Its not a reciever problem by any stretch of the imagination. And as for Coaching issues, Capers knows he cant have Car throw a high lofting spiral to ANYONE down the line. The only plays have to have recievers squared to Carr to be able to stop those finger-brakers against thier bodies, and then trust your recievers to break tackles from a standstill. This is the problem with the Texans Offense. Carr may be a QB, but he still need to learn to thow the ball for the situation.

Did you watch the Texans play last season? Carr did show touch on many of his passes and changed the whole directory on his deep ball. That was the reason for the jump in his Comp%. Houston doesn't have World class receivers. AJ is one, but after that we have young prospects with good hands. The reason why I know they have good hands is because I saw them catching the ball WITH their hands, away from their body, especially AJ who spent last years offseason working on his hands. The only player who catches with their body is bradford who was never accused of having great hands.

I think Carr is a QB developing into being one of the upper tier QBs in the next couple of years.

He makes good reads for the most part, is tough as nails, has a good arm, decent mobility, and seems to be a very good leader.

Give him some more time, any guy who can take the beating he has and get up smiling deserves some extra time.

Sorry but Texans fans are not ALL class. The organization is class and about 75% the fans are. One of my cheesehead friends flew down and attended the game with me. We had to sit there and ignore alot of insulting comments during the game and then he had beer thrown on him while we were walking out after the game. The only redeeming thing he found about the Texans were the cheerleaders.

Wow, not only did we host a ton of Green and Gold at our tailgate (pics, I got 'em) and we then joked around with the fans inside (section 524 was nearly all G & G for some reason that game) and then we partied with the Favre fans again until we were kicked out of the lot. Our Favre pinata went home with someone in G & G and now lives somewhere in Southern Wisconsin.

I NEVER saw any disrespect to the Cheeseheads, but hear there was some. That is too bad, next time they need to come by FILO in the lots and sit near our seats inside. Raiders fans were in awe of the treatment we gave them (they have a standing invite to come to Orange lot, N. of pole #8 for ANY game). Sorry your friend had problems James.

Still trying to stoke the Chicken Little Brigade I see. Nice trolling tactic. Hat's off (but dogging the line in every post kind of exposes you).

Actually, I'd say our main problem is in the middle. LT gets all the beat down since if you don't have an elite player every team is looking for one (there are probably 10-12 teams in our situation at LT). The Texans drafted a Center in the draft last year and not a LT.

Seth Mckinney is good.

Wish I felt that way. He was the weakest link on the line last year and only Washington at Guard beat him for the title in 2003 IMO. 2002 has too many nominees so they decided not to give out the reward that season. I actually believe Washington would be better at Center than McKinney is and that's not saying much. Washington has slow feet.

I'm with Vinny here. The middle of the line is weak. If we could solidify the middle of the line, maybe the left side would shore itself up. I, personally, feel that replacing McKinney with a top level Center would improve our line the most. The only exception would be a franchise LT and that's a pipe-dream right now.

I'm not an O-line basher but I try to look at things with an open mind. I think our line will naturally be better due to an extra year playing together and in the new system.

Time will be the only judge.

Seth McKinney is a Dolphin. Steve is the guy who gets blown up all the time here in Houston.

Sad thing is that I didn't catch that Vinny! hehe
