I watched the entire game with curiosity as the Raiders and especially Carr looked far better than I expected. Carr seemed to be more in control of the offense, with much better pocket presence than Tannehill. He was more accurate and threw an easier ball to catch with better touch. He actually seemed to scan the field and go through his reads, which Tannehill rarely appears to do. His release point was higher, leading to fewer dropped passes than Tannehill, who is just north of uncle Rico sometimes as per release point.

Carr allowed the Raiders to have a sense of flow moving the ball down the field, something that I rarely see with Tannehill. Tannehill has his moments, but how often do you see the Dolphins offense get into a groove with Tannehill behind Center? I watched Carr and thought to myself that yeah, this guy gets it, he has the ability as a rookie to actually be in control of an offense and to consistently move the ball down the field, which in terms of team synergy is huge- it gives the defense more time to rest and the offense actually has the time to get comfortable as opposed to the consistently choppy Dolphins offense, heavy on the 3 and outs with Tannehill at the helm.

I had the Patriots defense in 9 out of 10 Fanduel games, I wasn't cheering for Carr or looking for the best in him. But I was impressed, and the thing about it is that if you look at just the box score you might think that Tannehill actually had the better game. Hardly the case.

Carr has allowed the Raiders to flow and move down the field, how do you explain their 37 pts scored in 3 game which is worst in the NFL? And you claim Carr was more accurate. In this specific head to head matchup he was but how many drops did the Dolphins have vs. KC?

Carr throws for 174 yards and 0 td's on 35 attempts and get a thread on here? I know Tannehill isn't playing well but some of you have lost your damn minds.

Agreed. Tannehill hasn't looked that stellar yet but to say Derek Carr is better than Tannehill after 3 games vs. RT's 3 years is abysmally incorrect....at least to me.

Tannehill is 29th in the league in completion percentage at 56.5% and last in the league in yards per completion at 5.03 yards.

All true numbers. Miami also leads the NFL in dropped passes. That is a factor that ****s Tannehill's numbers. Am I wrong?
 
If you have Mike Wallace on your team every Sunday... You shouldn't be last in the league in yards per completion at 5.03.
 
We will make Carr look like a future Hall if Famer just like we did with Sammy Watkins and Kniles Davis.

You shouldn't make such a bet. HE IS A RAIDER...THEY WILL RUIN HIM.
 
Something I came along that I thought was very interesting. Austin Davis

Did you actually watch the game or are you squirting stats out of your rump?
 
I'm a neutral party, but it should be pointed out that two of Tannehill's TD's were 19 yard drives set up by the defense. Obviously, this thread will be revisited Sunday afternoon.

Edit - assuming Tannehill plays and is not pulled during the game.

Carr's offense put up 9 points, that's slightly below Tannehill par of 10-17 ppg.

Bet you these were the same guys falling all over themselves for Matt Flynn as well.
 
Would prefer bortles. Maybe tannehill can watch him and realize that he can move before the pocket collapses. Maybe the jags are dumb enough to take tannehill and Jordan for bortles straight up.
