"And we talk about this all the time: quarterback super power. And Derek's, his favorite quarterback for a long time -- I played against him and lost to him like nine times -- is Peyton Manning. He wants to get to the line, decipher what the defense is doing, get in an appropriate play. And that skill wasn't utilized in Las Vegas under Josh McDaniels. And that's fine, there's nothing wrong with that. And Derek and Josh, they had a good conversation today, they parted ways. Josh is going to do his thing, he'll find a quarterback that fits his system, and Derek will go find a system that fits his style. So it will be good." - David Carr
Not sharing to keep bringing up Carr, but more just bring to light how much control McDaniels has over the offense. Or maybe he didn’t trust DC to make those decisions…idk…interesting thought tho.
