rbsohio30 Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 HOUSTON -- The Houston Texans waived quarterback David Carr, the first draft pick in franchise history five years ago.The Texans never have had a winning record, and Carr often was the scapegoat. He completed 60 percent of his passes but also threw 65 interceptions and was sacked 249 times in five seasons.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2809870 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalszoneBilly Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Incredible for a QB that was never afforded ANY protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalszoneBilly Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Why couldn't he be the Bengals new backup behind Carson? It can't hurt to have two 1st rounders at QB! I know, I know...$$$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_Brooks21 Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Incredible for a QB that was never afforded ANY protection.People were saying the same thing about Akili Smith and Tim Couch when they got released, oh they didn't have a chance on such bad teams no protection. Believe me those NFL personnel can identify if a guy has it or not by actually seeing him everyday at practice and in games. Two touchdowns in the last Ten games that's horrible, I would have cut his butt too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazkal Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Carr showed he's a decent QB not the 1st overall selection and was overdrafted,but I think if he can find his way on to a good team that can protect him he'll have a decent 2nd half of his career.

ShulaSteakhouse Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Err why would they just cut him versus trading him to someone? What am I missing there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbsohio30 Posted March 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Err why would they just cut him versus trading him to someone? What am I missing there?I think they shoped him around and found they could get nothin for him so they just cut him and took the lose.

ArmyBengal Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 I am of the same mindset that Carr isn't as bad as it appears. He has an arm, and get can outside the pocket. Maybe his accuracy has a bit to be desired, but you have to admit that the Houston O-line has been and still is the most pathetic excuse for an O-line there is !!! I doubt many others would have fared much better behind that line. Seriously, it's hard to complete passes and score when you are either on the run or on your a$$ !!! I hope he gets the chance Harrington got, because I think he's a better QB, but whatever...WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazkal Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 even though they only had 41 sacks thats still alot and doesn't count how many times he was hit ala carson last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
