Carr Shout-Out

classyfan49 · 2011-06-09T20:15:27-07:00

From Kevin Lynch: But where does that put veteran backup David Carr, the only quarterback on the roster signed (although it would be a huge upset after putting in this much effort, if Smith didn't sign). Carr has been told he will be allowed to compete for the starting job. "They (49ers coaches) told me they are going to roll the balls out there and the best player is going to play," Carr said. "I like that situation." Me too! Give Carr a chance!! If Harbaugh ends up going with Carr (not outside the realm of possibility, since he actually has previous experience working with Greg Roman), so be it!

I'm all for competition in camp. That said, I doubt that Carr wins that competition.

What I am concerned about is David Carr's hat.

I concur with both sentiments. However, Roman did say after he was hired:

"David’s got a lot of unique skills and so does Alex. I think quarterbacks are very unique. I hate to take one and say he’s like another. You look at them individually… David’s a talented guy and we’ll see how it all fits together."

Much in the same way we would all defer to Harbaugh and co.'s expertise if they do go with Alex, I'm sure we would all be equally deferential in the unlikely event that they went with Carr instead, right?

I figure the fact that Harbaugh hasnt spoken one word about Carr the only signed QB on the team says quite a damn lot. Personally I haven't seen anything from Carr to get excited about. Let the competition begin ......

Carr makes Alex look like Joe Montana. He doesn't look like he deserves an NFL job above 3rd string to me....
