It is part of Matt’s Schtick that Carr is the Emperor of empty yards and that he thinks Carr is garbage. That’s one the reasons I moved to your show as you are unbiased and stick to the facts. Btw I love the humor ie Blair Witch photography and press conferences on the median at Airline Highway. You crack me up. To the Dome Dog Diet my friend.
It works both ways, Derek Carr was dealing with a bunch of rookie receivers. An offensive line that doesn't know how to defend, two concussions and three cracked ribs in less than a month, think about that. No matter who you bring in, the quarterback is going to drown. the Saints offensive line is trash, actually the Saints offensive line is the crudd stuck at the bottom of the trash can after you get the bag out 😂
17 minutes in, I hope they don’t completely abandon the deep ball because that is Carrs best asset next to his accuracy. I also hope they utilize Foster Moreau more, he’s got good hands route running ability.
@moshegoldbergTheKinghes actually been rated the best deep passer in the league twice (accuracy wise) beating brees and prime Wilson, and is always in the top 5
Firstly, thanks for setting Matt straight. It feels like I lose IQ points while listening to him. Secondly, in analyzing offensive plays in the next few videos, keep in mind that the Saints offense will not look exactly like the 49ers. Kubiak said the first thing he did was talk to Carr and got feedback from him on what he liked to do. Carr is a gunslinger and is at his best when he is winging it. However, he can do it all, including quick passes and he is a good roll out passer. I can remember only two roll out passes last year. One went to Foster for about 15 yards and another one went for a TD to Graham. Roll out passes as well as quick passes help the offensive line but they will still take their shots down the field. With Carr the whole playbook is open to Kubiak. Carr is also good against the blitz, unlike Purdy.
@@TrumpsTrashTruck Well when receivers are lost in space and you are already hurt early from the worst offensive line in NFL history you tend to check it down. But in the second game, he called the long pass to Shaheed that iced the game. In 2016, he had 7 game winning drives with 5 of them being touchdown drives, both NFL records. Devante Adams had more 30+ TD receptions in his 15 games with Carr than he had all those years with Rodgers. Carr is at his best when the game is on the line and the coaches get out of the way and just let him sling it. He said he used to always dream of having the ball in his hands with the game on the line as a kid. He wears that sleeve on his left arm in honor of Koby Bryant. He was good friends with Bryant and strives to have that “mamba mentality” in his game. Maybe you should try to get to know your QB instead of being so ridiculously critical.
@MosheGoldbergTheKing Thanks. They just repeat each other like a bunch of sheeple. Check down Carr. Carr is mid to trash. Etc. They ignore Carr’s good qualities, including him being a Christian and an all around great guy, yet are all wide eyed in anticipation for a 5th round draft choice with ear rings. So much for their “southern hospitality” and their Christian culture.
@MosheGoldbergTheKing Ha. Yep. And I was being kind by saying they would have won 5 games with Don’t Listen Winston. And Rattler? Really? I talked to a guy at the gym today who admits he just follows the Saints when they win. But today he was all wide eyed talking about how Rattler may take over by mid season. That is proof right there that people just follow the crowd and have no clue. It’s like everyone is just bit by the Rattler bug. Hey. I just found a new nickname. So far my list is: Walk on Water Brees Cancer MT, Gansta MT or MT Bricks Don’t Listen Winston Lost in Space Olave No Clue Carmichael The Rattler Bug And my newest since Payton was filmed smoking a bong with his son - Bong Sean
I just want to say thank you James for saving me from garbage Saints media. Before I found this channel I was forced to listen to terrible takes like this one for lack of better options. Now I see these clips pop up in my feed and I just wait to catch your reaction video. It's much easier to stay sane while staying informed. Cheers!
James 🔥 as usual!! You hit the nail on the head “ Narrative “. These talking heads or their prep squad are so narcissistic they spend hours scouring for useless facts to back the garbage they spew. Keep speaking the truth and exposing frauds. About time some did!!
Carr came to the Saints released from the Raiders by a coach who got fired the following year. Last year, he came to the Saints with an off season full of uncertainty. He had no idea of what type of characters he would deal with in the locker room. Come to find out there were a few haters. Thomas, Olave, the Center, and lowkey Winston. Then you have to adjust to learning and building chemistry all the while garnering only two thirds of the snap because they want to make a learning offense more predictable by bringing Hill in to consume snaps. Even after all that the Saints were one win away from being in the playoffs. With that said, Carr now has some chemistry with the team plus a full off-season. This will be Carr's make it or break it year if the oline and defense plays well. A lot to look forward to. WhoDat!! WhoDat!!
People act like carr sucks when he is one of the best players we have on offense (maybe the best between him and olave or taysom). Like every qb he needs protection and the receivers knowing their routes (they need to stop acting like he was throwing to empty spots just randomly). If he has those hia stats will be close to the top 10 as they always are, if everything comes around and clicks then he will be in the 5-8 range, that is what he should be producing and mvp votes are his ceiling.
I can’t watch AFR the show is terrible You might as well watch a Falcons show. In fact I’ve reservations about finishing this one because that clown is on here but I’ll push through because I think I know where you’re going. Love your show James.
You dont understand his points because he makes none, he is known as a carr hater, ive been saying you know more ball than him and his fans get mad. He acts like the giants and bucs werent in winning streaks (In fact the bucs ended like 6-1 with our game being their only loss). Carr usually is top 12 (statistically he is in the top 10 in most stats every year even when hes considered to be playing bad) but he can give stretches in which he play as a top 5-8 qb if he has good protection and even has shown that he can play at a mvp level, he wouldve probably won it in 2016 if he didnt break his leg and was the early favorite in 2021 before the gruden drama (in fact they were the only team to start 3-0 with wins over teams with 10+ wins the previous season). The only problem will be assembling the system fast (receivers also need to know their routes and checks).
James you were right about Matt being wrong when he said Brett Favre was Super Bowl MVP and champion. Brett was not the mvp in Super Bowl 31 Desmond Howard was. In the other Super Bowl Brett Favre played in he wasn’t the mvp either Terrell Davis was. What Matt said doesn’t make much sense to me either
James you can analyze every AFR show based on Matt’s hate for Carr. I want him to tell me who he wants to play QB. Jameis and Brees are gone. Look at Derek Carr stats 3 years with Gruden before McDumbass came from patriots and screwed up Raiders. 2020 lead Raiders to Playoffs and 6 come back win.
I'm honestly baffled to see people that pretend to know football ignoring shitty Olines and WRs not doing their job and blaming only the QB. Every single QB needs support from Oline, WRs and the running game. Or he'd be standing on the field by himself. And the offense needs at least a complimentary defense. If you don't have either you're not winning big. No matter how talented the QB is. Even double threat QBs or the very elite QBs need that support around them and at least decent, reliable play by their teammates. Feeling sorry for Carr
That guy from after further review has always been a dc4 hater he talks as if he knows everything And is very condescending I’ll never understand why some of these channels have such a huge problem with carr if the fan base can just get behind there qb and have Some positivity It would be much more enjoyable to watch but with all the negative takes it just pushes viewers away honestly I’m not sure more of the haters like them But I’ll never understand the divide that Derek Carr has the dude is a great amazing human being and a really good quarterback does not get into trouble good family man you’ll never have to worry about him being on TMZ getting dui or Assaulting someone dc4 is a stand up guy that really does try to be the best version of himself he can be I think he’s a great role model for the youth but this division with him people liking him and people hating is not helping at all How about we just support our players that wear the Saints jerseys and play ball on Sundays but James I really enjoy your reactions Keep doing what you’re doing I’ll keep watching thank you
Nice take James. Impressive. Among the upper 15 teams in the NFL the talent difference is small. Coaching schemes are the difference in wins and losses. Carr is a stud. He will kill this offense. Carr will sling it sometime. Kubiak will throw whenever the time is right
Matt hates Carr or at least uses this as his platform probably to gain clicks from those who are looking for reasons to hate Carr, too! That's why I listen to you and have unsubscribed from Matt's site! Just utter garbage and constant negativity! Glad James is a voice of reason.
Man, I love your takes on the Saints. I used to watch other Saints media, and I've realized that there's a large majority of our fan base that just doesn't want to accept change, and are constantly living in the past.
Everyone should watch Carr’s 2016 season and to be honest, he’ll look a lot like he did the last 6 games of 2023. The reason Carr got MVP votes in 2016, is because he was great in the “High leverage situations” that season(he had a still NFL record of 7 game winning TD passes in a season) AND he found ways to beat teams he was supposed to beat. Here’s a legitimate critique of DC, he handles adversity better than success. I wouldn’t be surprised if Carr goes 4-2 in the first 6 games next season and then 2-4 when the schedule softens up. If he can tap into his 2016 mindset and go 4-2 in both 6 game stretches and 4-1 to finish it out, it’ll be a 12 win potentially special season.
Carr should have a more thought out and well planned football season with Kubiak. Even if Kubiak isn't mind blowing he's expected to be LEVELS above Pete Carmichael.⚜️💯🏈
Matt "The Pessimists" Moscona went off on me a few days ago on his Live because I said the Saint's have a chance to go 8-3 going into the BYE. Also the Carr comparison to Matthew Stafford is crazy for the simple fact that Carr didn't have a Hall Of Fame WR named Calvin Johnson aka Megatron to throw to for the first 7 years of his career!!! in fact Carr didn't have a Hall Of Fame WR until year 9 with Adams who BTW had career numbers with Carr and made the Pro-Bowl and All Pro teams, but look what happened when Carr left, Adams had one of his worst statistical years with no Pro-bowl or All Pro team selection. Adams fall off year with Jimmy Garoppolo is what people expected to happen when Adams left Rodgers to play with Carr and those pundits were wrong
I do feel like if kubiak really utilizes the run game first style like the 49ers it can possibly get Carr to that “top 10” people are saying he should be at or want him to be at. The biggest proof of that is Brock Purdy last year. They turned a QB who was not perceived as great or however you want to put it and made him into a top 10 QB, it was just all because of the system they ran🤷🏾 and it started with the run game.
Also don’t get it twisted I am not saying its guarantee he will be in the top 10 and I’m definitely not expecting him to be but you all got to realize it will just all come down to the scheme🤷🏾.
He’s been around top 12 statically most years in his career. Not much of a stretch to get to top 10. He’s been there before, last year in multiple areas, even.
@@ericsipe8619yeah no doubt about it, but I said that for the People who have these crazy high expectations and calling him trash. Like it is possible for that to happen but they need to realize it is going to be all off of kubiak scheme and what they’re doing exactly. What do they want to achieve first. Carr isn’t just going to throw the ball all willy-nilly.
@@ericsipe8619also i feel like there is nothing wrong with having both or being in the middle because if Carr is average and the scheme is that great they can go far and if Carr is this amazing top 10 Qb even better good for him and us we can still go far. It won’t make a difference scheme wise just numbers wise.
Matt Mascona is a pathetic click bait journalist that has nothing to offer but a bunch of Carr hate. He banned me from his channel for my opinions of his cancerous takes on Carr and the Saints. He is just sad. I guess he doesn't have any other way to make money other than bashing DC4
Ha. I told him one time that the Bud Light was affecting his thinking. I stopped listening to him when he was cussing at a caller with his autistic son in the back seat, and said in the next podcast that people were criticizing him for that but that his son didn’t understand. I’m sure he understands hatred when he feels it.
But yet he’s been right. He said he’d be average and we wouldn’t go anywhere with him but apparently that’s enough for most of y’all Carr defenders. Who cares about results as long as those stats look pretty
@@TrumpsTrashTruckGuy, based on what Carr did last season Saints should have been 10-7 and won the division. It's only bc Winston choked away a 17-0 lead in the 3rd Q that it didn't happen. That's it. That's not average. What's even more insane is that the run game was horrible, barely contributing anything, esp over that 4-1 game run. That means that Carr was directly responsible for virtually every point that was scored over that span. The saints weren't a good team last season bc they had one of the worst run games in the NFL. It had nothing to do with Carr. Hell, you put a backup QB in Carrs place, and saints record would have been much closer to 2 wins then 9.
Honestly if you aren’t an actual fan don’t judge bc not fans are the same so how about go back to your own poverty franchise and stop worrying about others.
All those injuries and he never missed time. Maybe had he sat out a game or two he could've healed a little. Smh just hope he's healthy this season and ready. If not SIT HIM DOWN!!
James...love your posts. Ran across you last year and wasn't really sure if you were a NOLA fan or not. I agree 1000% with your Carr assessment. Trent Dilfer has a SB ring. I think the QB - regardless of the name on the jersey - is just one of 53 guys. Wasn't thrilled with the Carr signing last year but it is what it is. Rooting for him - of course. Tough schedule this year. Let's see how it plays out...
Have these people ever considered why they’re taking their time to debunk positive comments about Carr? What is the purpose? What is the intention? They are wasting their time.
The Saints offensive line is trash. Two concussions and three cracked ribs in less than a month. All rookie receivers because olave and Glassman Thomas were always out.
Goff's offensive lines with the Lions: 2021 - #13 offensive line 2022 - #3 offensive line 2023 - #5 offensive line It's not everything, but it certainly contributes to a quarterback's success tremendously.
Last season was last season. Ppl have to let that go and hope the Saints have a better season. I think Carr will do much better with a younger OC who i feel will set Carr up for success. But to peg Carr as a garbage QB thats crazy. I'd put him 14th or 15th best in the league
"It's hard to take that leadership role, you know, when you first come into a building, no matter how good you are, no matter what position you have" -ML How does that translate to ANYTHING to what Matt is comparing to? He's rambling on about the success of Stafford and Favre from year 1 to 2. Which is NOT leadership. Carr went to DD mid-year last year to figure out how to be a leader in the building. He will have an understanding of the culture next year. Period. That has nothing to do with the Rams/Vikings success in their second year.
All we ask of Moscone is to an average TH-camr -we don’t a need him blasting players for not being all pros. Being snide about team doesn’t make him a genius eleven if we end up subpar in a season. Being a vaguely veiled hater protects his ego. Appreciate James explaining why and how Saints may successful this season -not guaranteeing or promising anything just explaining what we will be trying to do this season - it’s exactly why we look at videos about the saints so we can better appreciate what the plan is and what to anticipate. Thanks James.
Ima have to strongly disagree James. You said “all we need is Carr to be Average”. Our roster isn’t good enough for Carr to be average and win . We need him to be good and carry this team. Our rosters isn’t that good We don’t have a 49ers rosters that’s filled proven skill players everywhere on offense.
So much negativity OMG....THE GAME IS TURNING INTO A GIRLS LOCKER ROOM ...LOL....DRAMA ! FOCUS ON THE GAME ...WIN OR LOSE! !! Being "A FAN" it's important to show love when winning games but it's much much more important to provide assurance and remind them how great they really are !! wen our team is down and out ...good or. Bad that's our team we all individually chose this team .why is it so hard to back them up rout then on and show Show love pick them up ...give them reason to fight! ... We all want the big win ! Who doesn't ...but the negativity! the boos t! It's embarrassing remember wat it means to be a fan!
I agree I been saying this whole off season Klint knows our best player is AK41 without doubt in my mind. I didn’t know the scheme San Fran ran bc I don’t really watch them like that but now that you mention it and you are telling me my brain is like I was right all long AK41 will be the offense just like CMC was to the 49ers last year. It’s that simple guys bring in a guy who can scheme and been around schemes that can provide the most success to your best players/impactful players and what did Mickey do he brought in the guy that matches that and we also happen to have the same style of RB now will AK41 have MVP season type like CMC last year who knows and who cares as long as we see it as long as it’s happening and we don’t see Pistol Pete running Jamal Williams up the middle for 3 straight plays and than just have AK41 come back and do a little dig route with no spacing at all and asking him to do miracles every time lol.
The saints now seem like the Ravens of the2011/ 2012 era Joe Flaco was never elite but was good sometimes great enough to lead them to the playoffs. The team functioned off strong defense strong run game and an average QB with good weapons around him.
I think we really have something. I want to see them succeed especially for the players. They’re all kind of due after being put through those years with Pete Carmichael when they could’ve had some great success if they would’ve actually had an offensive coordinator. I feel like they waisted years of these guys careers. I’m excited to see what Taysom and Kamara and Miller are capable of in a Klint Kubiak offense. WHO DAT!
Peyton Manning goes to Denver. 1st year has 37 TD's. 2nd year has 55 TD's. Russell Wilson goes to Denver. 1st year has 16 TD's. 2nd year has 26 TD's. Rich Gannon goes to Oakland. 1st year 24 TD's (team goes 8-8), 2nd year 28 TD's (team goes 12-4). Trent Green goes to Kansas City. 1st year 17 TD's (team goes 6-10). 2nd year 26 TD's (team goes 8-8) (3rd year 13-3, but we're only looking at 1st and 2nd years here). We can dig through and cherry pick data all day to try to prove one point or another or we can do actual research and pull up a large sample size to see if there's any long term trend to the idea of a quarterback either getting better or regressing in his 2nd year with a new team.
@@JamesSkrmetta Gannon was a beast in his day. MVP and Superbowl champ. Green is a guy the Rams had high hopes for but he gets hurt and some guy they picked up from the NFL Europe developmental league, who had been bagging groceries, steps in and sets the world on fire. So, with the emergence of Kurt Warner, Green gets Wally Pipped and sent off to KC. Interesting tidbit about Warner: Jake Delhomme, the former Saint and former Carolina Panther quarterback, backed up Warner in NFL Europe. Jake said in an interview, something to the effect, "Man, I didn't think I was gonna make it in the league. I went to Europe and couldn't even start there." Little did he know the guy who beat him out in Europe was one day gonna put on the gold jacket.
These comments/trolls/carr haters idk but mane he was not bad but he was not elite, he def didn’t live up to $150 mil but you can say he was injured, coaching, new system, etc. this year tho no more excuses he plays like last year ok you can say he isn’t worth the money but trash ehh I rather have him over a lot of qb’s. Controversial yet brave I rather have him than Deshaun Watson who we tried to get and especially over Russel Wilson. Saints fans we have the 1st and 3rd best qb in our division, I say that bc I believe baker, Carr, and cousins can be interchangeable as far as our division goes although I think Carr and Cousin have a higher peak you still have to account that baker did lead the browns to playoffs and even almost got past Patrick Mahomes so as long as he is away from the Bryce Young’s of the world or Daniel Jones, etc we good. WHO DAT
@@1001011011010 you can’t just look at similar QB’s you have to take in consider how much he is getting paid which is I believe 35 mil a year which idk all of them but ik Geno and Daniel Jones are in that area and I fs would take carr over both. That being said he still gettin paid 150 mil my expectations aren’t being better than Daniel Dimes and Geno 1 good year veteran lol, he has to be better fs but he isn’t as bad as people say. Start of last year horrific but got better so hopefully he continues to improve which I am hoping for as I’m saints fan the more successful Carr is the more successful the team will be just how the league works nowadays
@@BROWNBOY833 Baker Mayfield have agreed to terms on a three-year, $100 million contract worth up to $115 million in incentives and $50 million guaranteed. Derek Carr signed a four year, $150 million contract with the Saints on March 6, 2023. $100 million of the contract is guaranteed, with $60 million fully guaranteed at signing. Kirk Cousins signed a 4 year , $180,000,000 contract with the Atlanta Falcons, including $50,000,000 signing bonus, $100,000,000 guaranteed. It's around a similar ballpark imo at least based on a very quick lookup. Baker only got a 3 year contract, and it's $50 mil less but also includes up to $150 mil in incentives. Both Carr and Cousins signed 4 year contracts, one for $150 mil and the other for $180 mil. Granted, the other two contracts came this year as opposed to last year but it's pretty similar
@@1001011011010 how much was baker mayfield getting paid last year yeah exactly can’t look at just the level of QB he is around gotta look the contracts and what he is supposed to be etc. honestly you could say baker was worse or better than carr last year it doesn’t matter we didn’t pay Carr to be jsut as good or a little better than baker, we paid to him to be at least 15 or better for the most part last year we was around 15 for the most gotta do better than that tho not what we paid him for.
He forgot to mention Drew Brees and the Saints. Not that it matters…I agree with you…these are all independent situations….I’m sure you could find just as many situations that were just the opposite…or that the QB was just average the whole time.
James I fine that you are knowledgeable and give your listeners the facts but Matt Moscona is the north end of a south bound mule, he didn't like Derek Carr when the Saints first got him and now throws propaganda out like he's Putin from Russia.
AFR is right in my opinion!! Im noticing alot of us Saints fans and others are riding the same excuse train some Carr fans had for him in Oakland thus history repeats itself!! He simply is not it and a big part of it is Carr being Carr like hes been for the past over a decade! People keep using the fact that he beat some of the worst teams in the league at the end and we still didn't make the playoffs with an easy schedule and in the worst division in football!! We need to be realistic about where we are and what we have! Kirk Cousins is supremely consistent and hes got weapons with a good offensive line etc, Tampa won the division abd has only gotten better, Carolina is investing and building properly around Bryce with weapons and a host of other things! We are going to be 3rd or fourth in the division!
Carr is literally the most polarizing QB in the league. With the raiders you literally had a section of the fanbase wishing for his death and saying he’s the worst QB in the league when he was doing whatever he could to get to the playoffs after the craziness in 2021
CARRBAGE had all THE OFFENSE OF WEAPONS WITH A TOP O LINE TOP RB JACOBS TOP WIDE RECEIVERS ADAMS AND STILL COULDN'T MAKE THE PLAYOFFS 🤗 I REMEMBER CARRBAGE FANBOYS SAYING BUT CARRBAGE JUST NEEDS A GOOD DEFENSE 🤡 NOW CARRBAGE FANBOYS MAKING EXCUSES FOR CARRBAGE WITH THE SAINTS 🗑️
Brother James I had the same reaction @ 29:00, what in the actual fuck is he saying, bro I’m just make yt channel im done, im make one and just say whatever do whatever and ik couple of these guys will just eat it up and than retire a loser yt channel that had nothing to say or do just there but hey im living my best life in Cancun or whatever lol mane these guys really just want the check that’s it, money brings the worst in people in all types of aspects.
Literally had to mute this dude on YT cuz he offers no actual information. His target audience are people who think a QB is the only reason a team is bad.
@@JamesSkrmetta Yea man. I aint no expert but c’mon dude. This guy needs to watch some film😂 Keep up the good work homie! Soon you’ll surpass that bums views and subs! Who Dat!⚜️⚜️
Matt Carr bashes in literally every video and that’s why I don’t watch his show anymore. Carr is somewhere between 12-16. Let’s let that go and talk about the rest of the team. So many saints media people just get on camera and cry about Carr with no other valuable input. This is why I now only watch James and NOF.
Without any injuries he was still going to be a average at best qb he has enough body of work to see who he is, I don’t think we should expect a man that’s been in the league 11years now I think to be something he hasn’t already proved. Hopefully with all the new pieces on the line and him feeling comfortable in the system he can be better but I don’t expect him to become Bree’s he Doesn’t have that talent but if he can string together some constant play then we should be decent
After DA, the Saints and Carr’s great year coming up, DA’s first 3 year record with Saints will surpass Bong Sean’s record. That’s my newest nickname, since Payton was seen smoking a bong with his son. So now we have: Walk on Water Brees Bong Sean Cancer MT Don’t Listen Winston Lost in Space Olave The Rattler Bug
What are you talking about James? “Carr is going to be asked to do what Purdy did last year” 4300 yards and 31 TD’s Purdy finished 5th in mvp race lol.
He’ll be asked to fill the role Purdy did. What the actual numbers are/were doesn’t really matter. Same as Kamara will be asked to do what CMC did. Doesn’t mean Alvin is going to have 1500 yards and 14 touchdowns.
@@JamesSkrmettai appreciate the clarity bro. But I don’t think our rosters is that good and we don’t have depth , for Carr just to be game managing . We don’t have CMC, or Debo or Kittle Or Ayuk, and a really good O line. Carr absolutely need to play well I just to get us to 9 wins
Matt the contradicting casual fan Moscona…he even said earlier this week the Saints brought in a DEFENSIVE TACKLE to please Derek Carr because they used to play together…
If The Saints don't replace the offensive line there is nothing to review but Carr being sacked and no running game! Allen says let's move players around and see what happens?
I agree I understand a rookie QB getting better in year 2, but seriously how many years Carr been playing? Please be don't get that pass he's a veteran getting paid 150 million dollars. He didn't know the playbook til week 12. Now we get a new offensive coordinator. So they either gonna dumb down the offense, just become a running football team or both. Carr is a silver spooned QB, from a crappy QB family ...David Carr was crap too.
@@JamesSkrmetta two things can be true. That those teams were in our division and among the worst teams in the NFL. So you’re making a different point.
@@1youngkash My point is you can’t throw them out because we play those teams twice a year. Regardless if they are good or bad, that’s who we’re stuck with. The Giants and Bears games from last year? Throw those out. It’s a one-time thing against Tommy Cutlets and Tyson Bagent. Those games don’t tell us anything about the 2024 season. But how we performed against TB/ATL/CAR at the end of last year is directly correlated with predicting how we’ll perform this upcoming year.
@@JamesSkrmettano one said throw them away. That was not in my text nor mikes commentary. It’s like you’re making your own narrative from what you think you hear. The facts are, 3 of the last five team were below 500. That is a fact. And the other team we played was a fellow 9-8 division rivalry. Another fact. Let’s say if we had Baltimore and the chiefs in those final games. Do you think we still win 4 of the last 5. No!!! The opponent matters.
@@JamesSkrmettahow we performed against Atlanta is not a direct correlation. They have a new coaching staff. Which is a new philosophy. A new quarterback, who actually can see the field and throw the ball. You’re making your own narrative. Which if you want to say that. Then can see your point. But you’re making a reaction view based on someone else take. When you’re being closed minded on his overall point. You can not agree with him and still actually understand what he’s saying. We’re all saints fans here.
I’ve got the saints winning somewhere between 7 and 10 games and Carr as the 17th ranked QB. Doesn’t seem like something a delusional Saints podcast would say tbh
Thank you for pointing out this AFR guy! I avoid AFR channel because he is a negative guy for a Saints fan. Never going to watch his channel. I love watching you and Ross Jackson. Keep it up!

Gotta use Shaheed on those deep balls and maybe some screen passes. Kamara has to come to life under this new scheme.
He cost us a game when he couldn’t catch a pass in the back of the end zone
@@mikeandcammy I don’t remember that. Football really is a team sport fr
@moshegoldbergTheKinghes actually been rated the best deep passer in the league twice (accuracy wise) beating brees and prime Wilson, and is always in the top 5
@MosheGoldbergTheKing I do remember that. I was hurt by that cause I wanna see him succeed like he did in Vegas.
Firstly, thanks for setting Matt straight. It feels like I lose IQ points while listening to him.
Secondly, in analyzing offensive plays in the next few videos, keep in mind that the Saints offense will not look exactly like the 49ers. Kubiak said the first thing he did was talk to Carr and got feedback from him on what he liked to do. Carr is a gunslinger and is at his best when he is winging it. However, he can do it all, including quick passes and he is a good roll out passer.
I can remember only two roll out passes last year. One went to Foster for about 15 yards and another one went for a TD to Graham. Roll out passes as well as quick passes help the offensive line but they will still take their shots down the field. With Carr the whole playbook is open to Kubiak. Carr is also good against the blitz, unlike Purdy.
It won’t look *exactly* like SF, but if you look at the % of sets from SF and Kubiak’s time as OC, you can get a good idea of what they’ll be running
Endless check downs is not a gunslinger
@@TrumpsTrashTruck Well when receivers are lost in space and you are already hurt early from the worst offensive line in NFL history you tend to check it down.
But in the second game, he called the long pass to Shaheed that iced the game. In 2016, he had 7 game winning drives with 5 of them being touchdown drives, both NFL records. Devante Adams had more 30+ TD receptions in his 15 games with Carr than he had all those years with Rodgers.
Carr is at his best when the game is on the line and the coaches get out of the way and just let him sling it. He said he used to always dream of having the ball in his hands with the game on the line as a kid. He wears that sleeve on his left arm in honor of Koby Bryant. He was good friends with Bryant and strives to have that “mamba mentality” in his game. Maybe you should try to get to know your QB instead of being so ridiculously critical.
@MosheGoldbergTheKing Thanks. They just repeat each other like a bunch of sheeple. Check down Carr. Carr is mid to trash. Etc.
They ignore Carr’s good qualities, including him being a Christian and an all around great guy, yet are all wide eyed in anticipation for a 5th round draft choice with ear rings.
So much for their “southern hospitality” and their Christian culture.
@MosheGoldbergTheKing Ha. Yep. And I was being kind by saying they would have won 5 games with Don’t Listen Winston.
And Rattler? Really? I talked to a guy at the gym today who admits he just follows the Saints when they win. But today he was all wide eyed talking about how Rattler may take over by mid season. That is proof right there that people just follow the crowd and have no clue. It’s like everyone is just bit by the Rattler bug. Hey. I just found a new nickname.
So far my list is:
Walk on Water Brees
Cancer MT, Gansta MT or
MT Bricks
Don’t Listen Winston
Lost in Space Olave
No Clue Carmichael
The Rattler Bug
And my newest since Payton was filmed smoking a bong with his son - Bong Sean
I just want to say thank you James for saving me from garbage Saints media. Before I found this channel I was forced to listen to terrible takes like this one for lack of better options. Now I see these clips pop up in my feed and I just wait to catch your reaction video. It's much easier to stay sane while staying informed. Cheers!

James you are the best Saints content provider. Your honesty and knowledge is appreciated.
I appreciate that!
James 🔥 as usual!! You hit the nail on the head “ Narrative “. These talking heads or their prep squad are so narcissistic they spend hours scouring for useless facts to back the garbage they spew. Keep speaking the truth and exposing frauds. About time some did!!
Carr came to the Saints released from the Raiders by a coach who got fired the following year. Last year, he came to the Saints with an off season full of uncertainty. He had no idea of what type of characters he would deal with in the locker room. Come to find out there were a few haters. Thomas, Olave, the Center, and lowkey Winston. Then you have to adjust to learning and building chemistry all the while garnering only two thirds of the snap because they want to make a learning offense more predictable by bringing Hill in to consume snaps. Even after all that the Saints were one win away from being in the playoffs. With that said, Carr now has some chemistry with the team plus a full off-season. This will be Carr's make it or break it year if the oline and defense plays well. A lot to look forward to. WhoDat!! WhoDat!!
🎯💯
People act like carr sucks when he is one of the best players we have on offense (maybe the best between him and olave or taysom). Like every qb he needs protection and the receivers knowing their routes (they need to stop acting like he was throwing to empty spots just randomly).
If he has those hia stats will be close to the top 10 as they always are, if everything comes around and clicks then he will be in the 5-8 range, that is what he should be producing and mvp votes are his ceiling.
The O-Line made it difficult to have success.
Dude was beat up and running for his life more than half the time WHODATT

It's hard to believe Mathew is a Saint fan. The last three years Saints haven't been above 500. He's a top 10 QB
who is a top 10 qb?? Not carr bruhh !!
😂😂😂😂 James we’d be best friends in real life, man you crack me up! Best saints channel out there
You dont understand his points because he makes none, he is known as a carr hater, ive been saying you know more ball than him and his fans get mad.
He acts like the giants and bucs werent in winning streaks (In fact the bucs ended like 6-1 with our game being their only loss).
Carr usually is top 12 (statistically he is in the top 10 in most stats every year even when hes considered to be playing bad) but he can give stretches in which he play as a top 5-8 qb if he has good protection and even has shown that he can play at a mvp level, he wouldve probably won it in 2016 if he didnt break his leg and was the early favorite in 2021 before the gruden drama (in fact they were the only team to start 3-0 with wins over teams with 10+ wins the previous season).
The only problem will be assembling the system fast (receivers also need to know their routes and checks).

I don’t get why a lot of the coverage is hyper-focused on Carr. Just like with SF, there’s a lot more to their offense than just Brock Purdy.
@JamesSkrmetta one thing you will always have is people willing to hate carr. Literally hate him. It doesn't make sense.
@@JamesSkrmettahe used to play for the most hated team in the league. That's where 90% of the hate comes from.
James you were right about Matt being wrong when he said Brett Favre was Super Bowl MVP and champion. Brett was not the mvp in Super Bowl 31 Desmond Howard was. In the other Super Bowl Brett Favre played in he wasn’t the mvp either Terrell Davis was. What Matt said doesn’t make much sense to me either
James you can analyze every AFR show based on Matt’s hate for Carr. I want him to tell me who he wants to play QB. Jameis and Brees are gone. Look at Derek Carr stats 3 years with Gruden before McDumbass came from patriots and screwed up Raiders. 2020 lead Raiders to Playoffs and 6 come back win.
i think you can be a comedian on the side bro 🤣 dude said me no watch football, keep roasting them man! i love it haha
😂😂😂
Man..... that guy looks like someone who feels smart arguing with kids. Thanks James for brings us some, as usual, piece of reasonable point of view.
yea, he even curses in front of his own!
I'm honestly baffled to see people that pretend to know football ignoring shitty Olines and WRs not doing their job and blaming only the QB. Every single QB needs support from Oline, WRs and the running game. Or he'd be standing on the field by himself. And the offense needs at least a complimentary defense. If you don't have either you're not winning big. No matter how talented the QB is. Even double threat QBs or the very elite QBs need that support around them and at least decent, reliable play by their teammates. Feeling sorry for Carr
Brother every time I hear u talk I get excited about this team I can’t wait for this season
I’m pumped to see the offense under Kubiak
That guy from after further review has always been a dc4 hater he talks as if he knows everything And is very condescending I’ll never understand why some of these channels have such a huge problem with carr if the fan base can just get behind there qb and have Some positivity It would be much more enjoyable to watch but with all the negative takes it just pushes viewers away honestly I’m not sure more of the haters like them But I’ll never understand the divide that Derek Carr has the dude is a great amazing human being and a really good quarterback does not get into trouble good family man you’ll never have to worry about him being on TMZ getting dui or Assaulting someone dc4 is a stand up guy that really does try to be the best version of himself he can be I think he’s a great role model for the youth but this division with him people liking him and people hating is not helping at all How about we just support our players that wear the Saints jerseys and play ball on Sundays but James I really enjoy your reactions Keep doing what you’re doing I’ll keep watching thank you
WHODATT
Nice take James. Impressive. Among the upper 15 teams in the NFL the talent difference is small. Coaching schemes are the difference in wins and losses. Carr is a stud. He will kill this offense. Carr will sling it sometime. Kubiak will throw whenever the time is right
The first four games will tell us everything
Matt hates Carr or at least uses this as his platform probably to gain clicks from those who are looking for reasons to hate Carr, too! That's why I listen to you and have unsubscribed from Matt's site! Just utter garbage and constant negativity! Glad James is a voice of reason.
I unsubscribed after the game or so last season,lame takes should be his show
I don't mind listening to criticism but it's boring to listen to hate!
Man, I love your takes on the Saints. I used to watch other Saints media, and I've realized that there's a large majority of our fan base that just doesn't want to accept change, and are constantly living in the past.
Everyone should watch Carr’s 2016 season and to be honest, he’ll look a lot like he did the last 6 games of 2023.
The reason Carr got MVP votes in 2016, is because he was great in the “High leverage situations” that season(he had a still NFL record of 7 game winning TD passes in a season) AND he found ways to beat teams he was supposed to beat.
Here’s a legitimate critique of DC, he handles adversity better than success.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Carr goes 4-2 in the first 6 games next season and then 2-4 when the schedule softens up.
If he can tap into his 2016 mindset and go 4-2 in both 6 game stretches and 4-1 to finish it out, it’ll be a 12 win potentially special season.
Good stuff, thanks James
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Carr should have a more thought out and well planned football season with Kubiak. Even if Kubiak isn't mind blowing he's expected to be LEVELS above Pete Carmichael.⚜️💯🏈
And they were playing better at the end of the season and have gotten more talent
Matt "The Pessimists" Moscona went off on me a few days ago on his Live because I said the Saint's have a chance to go 8-3 going into the BYE. Also the Carr comparison to Matthew Stafford is crazy for the simple fact that Carr didn't have a Hall Of Fame WR named Calvin Johnson aka Megatron to throw to for the first 7 years of his career!!! in fact Carr didn't have a Hall Of Fame WR until year 9 with Adams who BTW had career numbers with Carr and made the Pro-Bowl and All Pro teams, but look what happened when Carr left, Adams had one of his worst statistical years with no Pro-bowl or All Pro team selection. Adams fall off year with Jimmy Garoppolo is what people expected to happen when Adams left Rodgers to play with Carr and those pundits were wrong
8-3?? Keep dreaming. 1-5 to start
I do feel like if kubiak really utilizes the run game first style like the 49ers it can possibly get Carr to that “top 10” people are saying he should be at or want him to be at. The biggest proof of that is Brock Purdy last year. They turned a QB who was not perceived as great or however you want to put it and made him into a top 10 QB, it was just all because of the system they ran🤷🏾 and it started with the run game.
Also don’t get it twisted I am not saying its guarantee he will be in the top 10 and I’m definitely not expecting him to be but you all got to realize it will just all come down to the scheme🤷🏾.
He’s been around top 12 statically most years in his career. Not much of a stretch to get to top 10. He’s been there before, last year in multiple areas, even.
@@ericsipe8619yeah no doubt about it, but I said that for the People who have these crazy high expectations and calling him trash. Like it is possible for that to happen but they need to realize it is going to be all off of kubiak scheme and what they’re doing exactly. What do they want to achieve first. Carr isn’t just going to throw the ball all willy-nilly.
@@ericsipe8619also i feel like there is nothing wrong with having both or being in the middle because if Carr is average and the scheme is that great they can go far and if Carr is this amazing top 10 Qb even better good for him and us we can still go far. It won’t make a difference scheme wise just numbers wise.
Look at Brady
The hate Carr gets is quite frankly surprising. He’s a top 12 QB and top 5 when he really gets going.
I hope he really gets it going this year.
When does this happen?
Matt Mascona is a pathetic click bait journalist that has nothing to offer but a bunch of Carr hate. He banned me from his channel for my opinions of his cancerous takes on Carr and the Saints. He is just sad. I guess he doesn't have any other way to make money other than bashing DC4
Ha. I told him one time that the Bud Light was affecting his thinking.
I stopped listening to him when he was cussing at a caller with his autistic son in the back seat, and said in the next podcast that people were criticizing him for that but that his son didn’t understand. I’m sure he understands hatred when he feels it.
@@pbm8264he reported me for saying the same thing about his drink of choice 🤣
@MosheGoldbergTheKing Actually, I didn’t see that one. I just saw the next one I guess when he explained what happened and he was defending himself.
He is a lame fan
You don't understand his point because matt is a big carr hater.
His points add up to talking trash on carr. Most the time that is.
I can understand if someone doesn’t like Carr or thinks Carr is overrated. But we don’t need Carr to be Superman for the Saints to win.
But yet he’s been right. He said he’d be average and we wouldn’t go anywhere with him but apparently that’s enough for most of y’all Carr defenders. Who cares about results as long as those stats look pretty
@@TrumpsTrashTruck that’s where it’s really up to Carr to prove you wrong. Just keep an open mind. I get where you’re coming from though.
@@TrumpsTrashTruckGuy, based on what Carr did last season Saints should have been 10-7 and won the division. It's only bc Winston choked away a 17-0 lead in the 3rd Q that it didn't happen. That's it. That's not average.
What's even more insane is that the run game was horrible, barely contributing anything, esp over that 4-1 game run. That means that Carr was directly responsible for virtually every point that was scored over that span.
The saints weren't a good team last season bc they had one of the worst run games in the NFL. It had nothing to do with Carr. Hell, you put a backup QB in Carrs place, and saints record would have been much closer to 2 wins then 9.
Even when he compliments DC, it’s only to set up an insult.
AFR's point is he doesn't like Carr and always takes shots at him, it's almost a psychosis.
AFR guy is clueless only negative. Tell me who he wants to play QB instead of disrespecting your QB

James...love your posts. Ran across you last year and wasn't really sure if you were a NOLA fan or not. I agree 1000% with your Carr assessment. Trent Dilfer has a SB ring. I think the QB - regardless of the name on the jersey - is just one of 53 guys. Wasn't thrilled with the Carr signing last year but it is what it is. Rooting for him - of course. Tough schedule this year. Let's see how it plays out...
Well said!
Have these people ever considered why they’re taking their time to debunk positive comments about Carr? What is the purpose? What is the intention? They are wasting their time.
The Saints offensive line is trash. Two concussions and three cracked ribs in less than a month. All rookie receivers because olave and Glassman Thomas were always out.
You saw what they let happen to #9🐐
Jared Goff went 3-13 Then 9-8 then 12-5 with the lions so that history really doesn’t matter.Does that mean Goff won his fight against history?
Yeah I guess Goff beat history 😂
Goff - 1
History - 0
Goff's offensive lines with the Lions:
2021 - #13 offensive line
2022 - #3 offensive line
2023 - #5 offensive line

Last season was last season. Ppl have to let that go and hope the Saints have a better season. I think Carr will do much better with a younger OC who i feel will set Carr up for success. But to peg Carr as a garbage QB thats crazy. I'd put him 14th or 15th best in the league
Agree. My QB list had Carr at 17 but on the same tier as 14
James just got to say big pause at 19:15 😂
"It's hard to take that leadership role, you know, when you first come into a building, no matter how good you are, no matter what position you have" -ML
How does that translate to ANYTHING to what Matt is comparing to? He's rambling on about the success of Stafford and Favre from year 1 to 2. Which is NOT leadership. Carr went to DD mid-year last year to figure out how to be a leader in the building. He will have an understanding of the culture next year. Period. That has nothing to do with the Rams/Vikings success in their second year.
I feel like some of those espn BR guys are just full time LSU bros so they just piss on the Saints.
James is going off 😭

After further review is ass of the bench and James are the best saints content creators
All we ask of Moscone is to an average TH-camr -we don’t a need him blasting players for not being all pros. Being snide about team doesn’t make him a genius eleven if we end up subpar in a season. Being a vaguely veiled hater protects his ego.
Appreciate James explaining why and how Saints may successful this season -not guaranteeing or promising anything just explaining what we will be trying to do this season - it’s exactly why we look at videos about the saints so we can better appreciate what the plan is and what to anticipate.
Thanks James.
Ima have to strongly disagree James. You said “all we need is Carr to be Average”.
Our roster isn’t good enough for Carr to be average and win . We need him to be good and carry this team. Our rosters isn’t that good We don’t have a 49ers rosters that’s filled proven skill players everywhere on offense.
It’s all about the poor line play,on both sides
So much negativity OMG....THE GAME IS TURNING INTO A GIRLS LOCKER ROOM ...LOL....DRAMA ! FOCUS ON THE GAME ...WIN OR LOSE! !! Being "A FAN" it's important to show love when winning games but it's much much more important to provide assurance and remind them how great they really are !!
wen our team is down and out ...good or. Bad that's our team we all individually chose this team .why is it so hard to back them up rout then on and show
Show love pick them up ...give them reason to fight! ... We all want the big win ! Who doesn't ...but the negativity! the boos t! It's embarrassing remember wat it means to be a fan!
I agree I been saying this whole off season Klint knows our best player is AK41 without doubt in my mind. I didn’t know the scheme San Fran ran bc I don’t really watch them like that but now that you mention it and you are telling me my brain is like I was right all long AK41 will be the offense just like CMC was to the 49ers last year. It’s that simple guys bring in a guy who can scheme and been around schemes that can provide the most success to your best players/impactful players and what did Mickey do he brought in the guy that matches that and we also happen to have the same style of RB now will AK41 have MVP season type like CMC last year who knows and who cares as long as we see it as long as it’s happening and we don’t see Pistol Pete running Jamal Williams up the middle for 3 straight plays and than just have AK41 come back and do a little dig route with no spacing at all and asking him to do miracles every time lol.
AK41 will benefit the most from Kubiak being the OC 100%
The point James he hates Carr …. The truth
Let’s not forget the same injury carr had, the ac joint, was the same injury that put Anthony Richardson on the bench for the rest of his rookie year.
The saints now seem like the Ravens of the2011/ 2012 era
Joe Flaco was never elite but was good sometimes great enough to lead them to the playoffs. The team functioned off strong defense strong run game and an average QB with good weapons around him.
James don’t forget me when your at the top of saints media
A different perspective for sure, but it makes sense to think of it that way.
I think we really have something. I want to see them succeed especially for the players. They’re all kind of due after being put through those years with Pete Carmichael when they could’ve had some great success if they would’ve actually had an offensive coordinator. I feel like they waisted years of these guys careers. I’m excited to see what Taysom and Kamara and Miller are capable of in a Klint Kubiak offense. WHO DAT!

We can dig through and cherry pick data all day to try to prove one point or another or we can do actual research and pull up a large sample size to see if there's any long term trend to the idea of a quarterback either getting better or regressing in his 2nd year with a new team.
Great comment. Always respect a Rich Gannon and Trent Green factoid 😅
@@JamesSkrmetta Gannon was a beast in his day. MVP and Superbowl champ. Green is a guy the Rams had high hopes for but he gets hurt and some guy they picked up from the NFL Europe developmental league, who had been bagging groceries, steps in and sets the world on fire. So, with the emergence of Kurt Warner, Green gets Wally Pipped and sent off to KC. Interesting tidbit about Warner: Jake Delhomme, the former Saint and former Carolina Panther quarterback, backed up Warner in NFL Europe. Jake said in an interview, something to the effect, "Man, I didn't think I was gonna make it in the league. I went to Europe and couldn't even start there." Little did he know the guy who beat him out in Europe was one day gonna put on the gold jacket.
These comments/trolls/carr haters idk but mane he was not bad but he was not elite, he def didn’t live up to $150 mil but you can say he was injured, coaching, new system, etc. this year tho no more excuses he plays like last year ok you can say he isn’t worth the money but trash ehh I rather have him over a lot of qb’s. Controversial yet brave I rather have him than Deshaun Watson who we tried to get and especially over Russel Wilson. Saints fans we have the 1st and 3rd best qb in our division, I say that bc I believe baker, Carr, and cousins can be interchangeable as far as our division goes although I think Carr and Cousin have a higher peak you still have to account that baker did lead the browns to playoffs and even almost got past Patrick Mahomes so as long as he is away from the Bryce Young’s of the world or Daniel Jones, etc we good.

Baker Mayfield have agreed to terms on a three-year, $100 million contract worth up to $115 million in incentives and $50 million guaranteed.
Derek Carr signed a four year, $150 million contract with the Saints on March 6, 2023. $100 million of the contract is guaranteed, with $60 million fully guaranteed at signing.
Kirk Cousins signed a 4 year , $180,000,000 contract with the Atlanta Falcons, including $50,000,000 signing bonus, $100,000,000 guaranteed.
It's around a similar ballpark imo at least based on a very quick lookup. Baker only got a 3 year contract, and it's $50 mil less but also includes up to $150 mil in incentives. Both Carr and Cousins signed 4 year contracts, one for $150 mil and the other for $180 mil. Granted, the other two contracts came this year as opposed to last year but it's pretty similar

He forgot to mention Drew Brees and the Saints. Not that it matters…I agree with you…these are all independent situations….I’m sure you could find just as many situations that were just the opposite…or that the QB was just average the whole time.
Jamall Williams is still on the roster as of this season. He's a great player when used correctly
James I fine that you are knowledgeable and give your listeners the facts but Matt Moscona is the north end of a south bound mule, he didn't like Derek Carr when the Saints first got him and now throws propaganda out like he's Putin from Russia.
AFR is right in my opinion!! Im noticing alot of us Saints fans and others are riding the same excuse train some Carr fans had for him in Oakland thus history repeats itself!! He simply is not it and a big part of it is Carr being Carr like hes been for the past over a decade! People keep using the fact that he beat some of the worst teams in the league at the end and we still didn't make the playoffs with an easy schedule and in the worst division in football!! We need to be realistic about where we are and what we have! Kirk Cousins is supremely consistent and hes got weapons with a good offensive line etc, Tampa won the division abd has only gotten better, Carolina is investing and building properly around Bryce with weapons and a host of other things! We are going to be 3rd or fourth in the division!

Carr is literally the most polarizing QB in the league. With the raiders you literally had a section of the fanbase wishing for his death and saying he’s the worst QB in the league when he was doing whatever he could to get to the playoffs after the craziness in 2021
CARRBAGE had all THE OFFENSE OF WEAPONS WITH A TOP O LINE TOP RB JACOBS TOP WIDE RECEIVERS ADAMS AND STILL COULDN'T MAKE THE PLAYOFFS 🤗 I REMEMBER CARRBAGE FANBOYS SAYING BUT CARRBAGE JUST NEEDS A GOOD DEFENSE 🤡 NOW CARRBAGE FANBOYS MAKING EXCUSES FOR CARRBAGE WITH THE SAINTS 🗑️
This is why I unsubscribe to AFR and subscribed to the goat of Contant creators. That guy is a joke.
It was Desmond Howard that won Super Bowl MVP.
Brother James I had the same reaction @ 29:00, what in the actual fuck is he saying, bro I’m just make yt channel im done, im make one and just say whatever do whatever and ik couple of these guys will just eat it up and than retire a loser yt channel that had nothing to say or do just there but hey im living my best life in Cancun or whatever lol mane these guys really just want the check that’s it, money brings the worst in people in all types of aspects.
It’s not money but the love of money
I think kubiak will make it much easier on carr to get up the field.
Matt can't stand Derek and I totally understand where he's coming from.
Literally had to mute this dude on YT cuz he offers no actual information. His target audience are people who think a QB is the only reason a team is bad.
Yeah whole lot more to it than that in today’s game.
@@JamesSkrmetta Yea man. I aint no expert but c’mon dude. This guy needs to watch some film😂
Keep up the good work homie! Soon you’ll surpass that bums views and subs! Who Dat!⚜️⚜️
Next Madden video??? I like playing my franchise at the same time I watch your Madden video.
Matt Carr bashes in literally every video and that’s why I don’t watch his show anymore. Carr is somewhere between 12-16. Let’s let that go and talk about the rest of the team. So many saints media people just get on camera and cry about Carr with no other valuable input. This is why I now only watch James and NOF.
Matt's a toadstool!
Without any injuries he was still going to be a average at best qb he has enough body of work to see who he is, I don’t think we should expect a man that’s been in the league 11years now I think to be something he hasn’t already proved. Hopefully with all the new pieces on the line and him feeling comfortable in the system he can be better but I don’t expect him to become Bree’s he Doesn’t have that talent but if he can string together some constant play then we should be decent
All we need Carr to be is average to above average. No one should be expecting him to be Brees
After DA, the Saints and Carr’s great year coming up, DA’s first 3 year record with Saints will surpass Bong Sean’s record.
That’s my newest nickname, since Payton was seen smoking a bong with his son.
So now we have:
Walk on Water Brees
Bong Sean
Cancer MT
Don’t Listen Winston
Lost in Space Olave
The Rattler Bug
If that OFFENSIVE LINE SUX, nothing happens.
I think he bounces back this year…..
What are you talking about James?
“Carr is going to be asked to do what Purdy did last year”
4300 yards and 31 TD’s
Purdy finished 5th in mvp race lol.
He’ll be asked to fill the role Purdy did. What the actual numbers are/were doesn’t really matter.
Same as Kamara will be asked to do what CMC did. Doesn’t mean Alvin is going to have 1500 yards and 14 touchdowns.
@@JamesSkrmettai appreciate the clarity bro. But I don’t think our rosters is that good and we don’t have depth , for Carr just to be game managing . We don’t have CMC, or Debo or Kittle Or Ayuk, and a really good O line. Carr absolutely need to play well I just to get us to 9 wins
@@Daljitnyc Saints roster is definitely not as good as SF. But we’ll (try to) be a light version of SF
He explains exactly what he meant right after saying that. He never said Carr will be asked to put up the same stats.
To be fair carr already had a 4300yds 30tds 8 ints season in 2020 under gruden
I mean what does it really say because golf took that same team to the playoffs a deep playoff run at that
This dumb shit is why you are the fastes growing channel in New Orleans sports media
Wasn't Carolina a top ten defense last year?
Matt the contradicting casual fan Moscona…he even said earlier this week the Saints brought in a DEFENSIVE TACKLE to please Derek Carr because they used to play together…
If The Saints don't replace the offensive line there is nothing to review but Carr being sacked and no running game!
Allen says let's move players around and see what happens?
I agree I understand a rookie QB getting better in year 2, but seriously how many years Carr been playing? Please be don't get that pass he's a veteran getting paid 150 million dollars. He didn't know the playbook til week 12. Now we get a new offensive coordinator. So they either gonna dumb down the offense, just become a running football team or both. Carr is a silver spooned QB, from a crappy QB family ...David Carr was crap too.
Im getting fired up should be on a t shirt
Baker Mayfield became the team leader day 1 last year.
Dallin Holker the sleeper
All Matt does is try to trash carr for no reason. I didn’t know carr has to be Brady in year 1.
What does carr have to do with a 45 year old Favre.
Btw I’m glad we got a late bye week. And I don’t agree with Matt often every team in the nfl can win on any given Sunday.
His point is, that winning 4 of 5 can be miss leading. When you’re playing 3 of the worst teams in the nfl and the Bucs.
3 of the 4 teams are in our division 😂
Kinda important we win those every year
@@JamesSkrmetta two things can be true. That those teams were in our division and among the worst teams in the NFL. So you’re making a different point.
@@1youngkash My point is you can’t throw them out because we play those teams twice a year. Regardless if they are good or bad, that’s who we’re stuck with.
The Giants and Bears games from last year? Throw those out. It’s a one-time thing against Tommy Cutlets and Tyson Bagent. Those games don’t tell us anything about the 2024 season. But how we performed against TB/ATL/CAR at the end of last year is directly correlated with predicting how we’ll perform this upcoming year.
@@JamesSkrmettano one said throw them away. That was not in my text nor mikes commentary. It’s like you’re making your own narrative from what you think you hear. The facts are, 3 of the last five team were below 500. That is a fact. And the other team we played was a fellow 9-8 division rivalry. Another fact. Let’s say if we had Baltimore and the chiefs in those final games. Do you think we still win 4 of the last 5. No!!! The opponent matters.
@@JamesSkrmettahow we performed against Atlanta is not a direct correlation. They have a new coaching staff. Which is a new philosophy. A new quarterback, who actually can see the field and throw the ball. You’re making your own narrative. Which if you want to say that. Then can see your point. But you’re making a reaction view based on someone else take. When you’re being closed minded on his overall point. You can not agree with him and still actually understand what he’s saying. We’re all saints fans here.
This is a delusional Saints podcast. Unsubscribing
I’ve got the saints winning somewhere between 7 and 10 games and Carr as the 17th ranked QB. Doesn’t seem like something a delusional Saints podcast would say tbh
True. I’ll take that back and apologize to you
I agree with Matt , injuries are legit, but he is garbage when healthy putrid when injured
Thank you for pointing out this AFR guy! I avoid AFR channel because he is a negative guy for a Saints fan. Never going to watch his channel. I love watching you and Ross Jackson. Keep it up!
The Tittle. Hahahahah.
28:54 🤣🤣🤣🤣
