    Carr May Start Earlier Than Expected

    Still highly unlikely that he will start opening week, but he may be inserted at some point this season and possibly quite early in the year, contrary to earlier reports that he would most likely sit his first year.


    NFL Network's Albert Breer reports "there is internal belief" second-round QB Derek Carr will push Matt Schaub for the Raiders' starting job.

    Breer adds that Carr has already convinced the Raiders he won't need a redshirt season. Schaub is getting the majority of first-team OTA reps and remains the favorite to start in Week 1, but Carr has shown enough progress that he could challenge for the job early in the season. Oakland may not have a choice but to force Carr into a starting role if Schaub plays like he did in 2013.

    His brother got thrown into a really tough situation way too early.

    Hopefully Derek gets a better shot.

    The Raiders are not going to win period. Carr should hope that he can sit out year one so he does not get thrown to the wolves like his borther did.

    aikman was thrown to the wolves right out of college..... won 3 super bowls and inducted into the hall of fame.

    Ya and the point you forget to make is aikman had one of the best offensive lines in nfl history whereas David Carr had expansion drafted OL.

    more excuses.

    ben roethlisberger was sacked 143 times in a 3 year span...... yet still led pitt to a super bowl victory. carr was sacked 140 times in his first 3 seasons. and it wasn't entirely the o-line fault as he held on to the ball too long due to his indecisiveness and inability to read defenses.

    Fck it, let's see what he can do early. He wasn't a first round pick anyway so throw him out there and see what he can do, if he fails then you can move on...again.

    Derek is probably more physically gifted than David is/was, although that in itself does not guarantee NFL success after facing WAC defenses in college.

    Any real raider fan knows Carr is sitting MOST of the year. The only way he plays this year is if Shaub gets hurt or throws pick 6's like last year. Carr will sit at least half the season

    When have the Radiers ever drafted and developed a QB? Going to Radiers is like taking a plunge in the black hole.
