Who is the only offensive player we’ve seen Carr go after? It’s Olave.
Probably just a coincidence though right?
Exactly. Moreau had one of the worst drops you will see (given the situation). I didn’t see Carr blow up on him.
Olave’s effort has been noticeably poor for several games now. Carr’s reactions have gotten worse for the past 2 games.
I’m sure that’s just a coincidence as well.

To me I’m going to be real- there was probably several times a guy like Ted Ginn or others in the past on this team did what Olave is doing.
Imagine comparing Ted fricking Ginn to the supposed #1 receiver for this team.

Again difference is Olave is being hung out to dry here.
He would be getting hung out to dry if he wasn't actually halfassing.

Work with Olave on his shitty effort?

Oh so you just want him to try to jump or put his hands out on a badly thrown ball that nobody can catch so we can say oh hes at least trying? How about we talk about why Carr is throwing such shitty passes to begin with? Personally, I think Olave isn’t completely blameless but hes getting a lot of flak for Carr’s shitty play.

When did that happen with Olave? Majority of the passes are not even near him or behind him on several simple routes.

Olave obviously had an awful game, but a still shot does nothing to show the full picture of how difficult a catch is. Which way was his momentum going? Did he have to completely twist to adjust to the ball placement? It's not as simple as "he had his hands on it he 100% should catch it. "

That pass was extremely behind him. Like ridiculously behind. Hes trying to catch a pass thats behind him and he doesn’t so we blame Olave and not Carr. If Jameis threw that same pass- we would all blame Jameis. I have no idea why we give a pass to Carr on a horrible throw and blame Olave.

That was 1st down and woulda moved the chains and got us out of shitty field position. Look Carr is playing like shite but so is everyone else I can’t hate on one of them more than the other at least it seems like Carr and a handful of guys care ……Olave we saw what he’s about

Hit him in both his hands he should catch it that’s what he gets paid for, every pass isn’t gonna be perfect especially when Carr had a arm around him trying to get that ball to Olave

Do you think Michael Thomas catches that?

Eh, MT13 and Shaheed seem to be out there hustling.
Olave's body language and effort is terrible.

Maybe
He's had some drops as well on less than well thrown balls. Again, not defending Olave's effort last night. It was shite.

Even Herbie said the ball should have been caught
Posted on 10/20/23 at 2:24 pm to Pels_Yaz
I’d take zombie Ginn over this bum right now
Posted on 10/20/23 at 2:25 pm to burke985
I think its everyone. To me not caring is also not being prepared. Shaheed has run wrong routes so did Kamara last night. I just think Olave not trying thing is getting overblown. Whats sad is everything is leaking to the public and to me thats a bad culture in the locker room and it’s Dennis Allens fault- all this garbage should not leave the locker room. If anything Allen should control it in the media and have these internal conversations with his players. None if this happening. DA had completely lost this locker room and it’s embarrassing.

Not just last night. He was quitting routes on Sunday against the Texans too.

Its obvious watching him on the field that his effort is shite. Nobody on the team has to spell it out.

At least Moreau looks like he genuinely cares
If he cares he would've been focused enough to make the catch.

Then why is he playing? If his effort is that bad every game as everyone says, why is he playing? Again, seems like DA doesn’t care. Players effort reflect coaches. We can shite on Olave all we want, but if his head coach isn’t saying or doing anything in regards to his effort, who’s really to blame?? Again the culture on this team is absolute shite. I say this because again Olave not showing full effort to me honestly isn’t the biggest problem and is deflecting from the complete lack of accountability and leadership on this team.
