Exactly. It's a pretty incredible float design and Carr took it in stride.

You call me a dumbass but you're comparing Carr to hurts, lamar, herbert and stafford. Stop it. You're being ridiculous. Fantasy points is literally just a simple measure of production. Yards and touchdowns, thats it. Only reason I used it is to show his production PER GAME. He doesn't move the ball down the field and into the end-zone at a high rate. Putting points on the score board is all that matters. Continue to nerd out on completion percentage, total season long passing yards, qbr, etc. but he doesn't win games. He never has. 10 years of proof.

He was 16th in fantasy points, behind Stafford by 2 points

I find it typically juvenile of certain New Orleans Saints fans whose Saints fan history begins around 2006.

Imagine being this unimportant that making a float like this is the highlight of your year, maybe even life. I promise you they will be laughing and patting each other on the backs for years to come about how cool and awesome that float was.

Carr is a solid dude and doesn't take anything like this to heart. And I assure you he doesn't let it bother him.

Is he throwing shade at the O-line?

He was injured. He took some late hits and blows to the face and head. The OL was brutal but the officiating did very little to discourage opponents from treating him like a piñata.

230 yards PER GAME
1.47 TDS PER GAME

CHEEEEEEEEEEEEKS

Stafford played 2 less games you tard. As a matter of fact Carr had the least amount of production of any QB that played a full season. Holy shite its worse than I thought.

But all his stats are terrible PER GAME. He doesn't put the ball in the end-zone often PER GAME. He doesn't win games. Use your eyes. He played every game and hey played alot of snaps and he has alot of empty stats because of it.

Yep. Chaos is a satirical parade. They also had a float of Livvy Dunne holding moneybags.

People who think this is “distasteful” or “shitty” must be out of town Saints fans that don’t know about Chaos or Krewe d’Etat.

Satirical parades are nothing new. Momus started in 1871 as a satirical parade until the 90s when Chaos took their spot when they stopped parading.

Dude, he's ranked 10th in touchdowns and 13th in yards.

Per game is your hill to die on? Okay, divide all of the QB's below him by their respective number of starts and give us a ranking. It won't be significantly different and would only change slightly if there were QB's that got injured

Hurts and Lamar are below him in passing and he's on par with Lawrence, Mayfield, Stafford, and damn near Mahomes (save 300 yards and 2 tds)

Hell, CARR didn't play a full season if you account for him leaving those games injured

again, he is paid exactly in line with his production.

Yea its almost like winning individual games is how football works. If you score more points and win more games you have a better chance of making it to the playoffs. Something Carr has never done. Coincidence?

19th in passing yards per game. Virtually zero production on the ground like hurts and lamar.

That list isn't correct.

Him and Wilson have very similar stats.

yes the list is correct. Wilson has 300 more rushing yards and 3 more rushing touchdowns. I know yall dont like to include rushing production but the score board counts it.

Ehh maybe so. I was born and raised in New Orleans but moved to Shreveport at 16. I’m in my 50s now so I’m out of touch with it all. If it was good fun I digress

Carr's production is weird to me. Of course, we are hopeful that some of this was being held down by Carmichael and will improve under Kubiak. But the other reality is, how long will it take for Carr and the offense to adjust to Kubiak? Took 1/2 the season to get on the right page for Pete's offense.

The weird part:
6th in completion percentage at 68.4%
13th in total yards
10th in total TDs
14th in TD% at 4.6
4th in INT% at 1.5
10th in QB Rate at 97.7
17th in ESPN QBR at 56.5

WTF is going on, he's all over the place

Asterisk by completion and int % (factors in your rate stats) when your Y/A is 19th in the league. 20th in yards per completion.


We can keep digging under the hood of his stats and you’ll see how you go 9-8 vs a terrible schedule
