• Why Jerry Jones is right when he says Dak Prescott’s contract precludes a big-time free agent signing
Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sports We’ve looked at the numbers and Jerry Jones might have a point. After two-straight 12-5 seasons and earlier playoff exits than expected, the Dallas Cowboys will once again try to figure out what needs to be done to help this team reach the next level. With a defense that has transitioned into one of the best in the league (ranked second in DVOA behind San Franc...2023

• Analyzing Derek Carr’s 2021 statistical profile: A follow-up analysis
Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports Given the recent meeting between the New York Jets and Quarterback Derek Carr, I wrote an article detailing Derek Carr’s 2022 season with the Las Vegas Raiders. In analyzing that data, I was surprised by his performance as his numbers were quite ‘meh’ for a QB that I had long considered ‘pretty good.’ As part of that article I made a comparison between Carr’s 202...2023

• What Does Derek Carr Really Have Left?
What Does Derek Carr Really Have Left? Mike Tanier 20 Feb 2023, 09:58am It feels strange to care about Derek Carr at this time of year. Frankly, it feels a bit strange to care about Carr at all. Carr spent nearly a decade in a well-worn rut of quasi-relevance: too effective for the Raiders to trade or release, not nearly accomplished enough for "elite quarterback...2023
