I posted about this in the Mensah vs Carr thread. Carr did very little last year to carry the offense, he relied on his elite run game and superior talent on the outside to be successful. Every highlight was PA to someone high-school wide open or a 5050 ball. He had less than 10 throws all season where he threw the wr open or put it on the money in tight coverage. He barely touched the middle of the field. I dont know who the back in ND is but if he isnt a top 3 round pick I expect Carr and ND to struggle on offense. Both Love and Price were dynamic and they garnered all of the attention. Stopping Carr was an afterthought. I think DCs will be able to focus more of their attention on taking away the things Carr likes to do this season instead of having to go all out to stop the run.What has Carr done for him to be ranked #1? He looked good last year but let’s pump the brakes.
As a society we have given too many players and people credit when they haven’t earned it. Arch Manning was put on a pedestal and we know how that ended.
