I don't think telling Mahomes to protect the ball is the same as saying a good pass should have been picked had a different player been in on the play? That's just bushleague arguing.

meant to respond to your earlier point but I agree, just an inexcusable remark by Carter, one that has nothing to do with any of the players involved. Just a really shitty thing to publicly state about someone without even a shred of evidence.

dude, he actually directly refuted the exact point you just made. he found a clip of CC being very critical of Mahomes, in a game he threw for almost 500 yards and 6 TDs none the less

Nothing bush league about that

I already addressed it, catch up will you? How come you forgot about the 5 turnovers in that game? Doesn't jive with your argument does it?

He criticized him for ball security...I wonder why? Ohh i know, he had 5 turnovers. So how exactly does that equate to a made up theory about a different player being about to intercept the Jones TD?

So i'll say it again, if Mahomes made that pass my guess is Carter would applaud it.

because he actually made mistakes, big ones, and repeatedly. Jones didn't. I'd have no problem with him saying "Jones needs to watch it when locking onto a receiver" - that makes sense and isn't egregious. But his argument about a different player picking off that ball is simply bullshit.

This can't be that hard to follow, or is it just me?

You wont get an argument from me that his argument that a different player lined up in a different spot would lead to an interception is, at best, a stretch (and thats being generous)

Just seems like his shtick if to find negative things to say.

You fuckers sent me down a rabbit hole of watching Cris Carter clips. Not exactly how I planned to spend my afternoon.
its his sctick, no doubt, and that's fine  
UConn4523 : 8/14/2019 2:31 pm : link
but when he made the comments he did about the Giants, and followed that up with basically trolling Jones for making a great pass, I'm going to go ahead and call him an asshole.

That's really the only point i'm trying to make. Carter is a moron, his opinion shouldn't matter to anyone (regardless of fandom). He should be called out for it publicly, wish someone in his profession would do so.

It's not rocket science or even basic physics. You don't need to actually be in Los Alamos to understand that. But, maybe getting a little closer might help.

You have to admit that a 7-9, 8-8 or even 9-7 and missing the playoffs and Jones gets no playing time is just about the worst possible outcome. And probably the most likely

I actually re-watched the clip where Carter enters race into the picture. It sounded like he was referencing some piece of information that Haskins slid because there was doubt about his ability to "comprehend" information. And that really pissed Carter off because (1) he knows Day put in a more complicated offense at OSU to match Haskins's ability to absorb information and (2) he's sensitive to that stuff because he's black.

The prologue to that was Carter saying if Haskins put up the numbers that Jones did at Duke, and finished 7th in the ACC in passing, he'd not have been drafted as high as Jones. Etc, etc.

Oddly enough, he later says the Giants made a mistake taking Jones. Not because Haskins was a better choice, but because they needed other better pieces - like a pass rusher. And cites Allen. Further, he suggests that since Eli is the QB this year, and likely more years, that getting talent to fill other needs was more pressing...at least that's how I heard it.

He actually compliments Gettleman for having the courage of his convictions to basically put his career on the line by going with Jones. And even says Gettleman has been in the league for a long time and usually knows what he's doing...

So Carter is sort of all over the map, but very passionate and sensitive to why Haskins slipped.

I just remember reading an article about Carter invoking race into the equation and never watching the full video segment.

This isn't meant to be a defense of Carter, btw. Just trying to capture where he went with the allegation...

The "host" is awful, who is that anyway? I like how not liking Haskins is incompetence. He then goes on to say he could have been the #1 pick...

I'm not an expert, but there's a bunch of legitimate reasons why Haskins didn't go #1 overall, too many to name in fact. Just a chickenshit way to drum up a story when you lack the ability to break down why a player might actually fall.

That was a brutal listen, thanks for that, haha

“But this is a black quarterback that’s not real athletic, that is just a drop-back passer. He’s going to have to beat you with his brain and his arm. It’s like, ‘Oh, he doesn’t run?

The panel then quoted Giants general manager Dave Gettleman, who claimed he fell in “full bloom love” with Jones after three series at the Senior Bowl, implying that’s all they needed to choose the white player over the black player.

I reviewed those earlier and posted my comments about these about an hour ago. Your second link is pretty harmless by Carter. Essentially says Jones was a reach, but DG has been doing this for a while, and his legacy will be tied to Carter.

The first link, like I mentioned earlier, Carter's tipping point is that he heard something about Haskin's not have the ability to comprehend, and that's why he fell. Not sure what that sourcing was/is, but that was the genesis...

Who is the source for a "guy can't comprehend"? The default seems to be that it's the Giants. Fine...but based on what?

No, not at all. Of course he is...

Like I said, I'm not sure if he's saying the Giants said Haskins would struggle with comprehension or if he was just making a general remark why he think Haskins fell.

If it's the latter, and based on what Carter says later in the segment about DG, he may not have been directly pointing the race card at the Giants. I just don't know.
