For anybody thinking about bringing David Carr back here as a backup, well, he's still in San Francisco. But it sounds like he's only holding on by a hair.
The San Jose Mercury News reported that Mike Singletary was none too happy with Carr's 7-for-17, 53-yard passing effort against the Raiders Saturday night. Whether he's on his way out, though, is another story. And it's unlikely he'd be cut before Saturday's deadline, if even then. But if he does get whacked, he'd be an ideal choice to bring back here, since he's the only guy out there who knows the system.
He'd probably come in as a third-stringer, though, since Bomar has done the work to become the primary backup. And let's face it, if Manning goes down early, the Giants' season will be basically wrecked, anyway.

Wow, news to me. David Carr is better than Alex Smith so it just shows what Singletary knows which is just about nothing. Yelling like an idiot doesnt work as a coach when u don't understand X's and O's. I guess this makes me a racist because I forgot Mike Singletary has the OJ free pass until he kills his ex-wife and anybody who criticizes such a "classy" guy is a racist.
ReplyDeleteWow Wayno, just wow. Was going to post here that bringing in Carr would be great and that I always liked him. Can brag again that we have two number 1 overall QBs. But, man, I cannot follow that post. I was with you until after the "better than Alex Smith", but then you lost me.
ReplyDeleteIn the future, can we keep this about football? I mean, divorce rates and discussion of ex-football player controversies is not something I want to jump into on a Giants blog. If I wanted that, I would go to other blogs.
I was much more comfortable last year knowing that if Manning went down we would have a former starter to replace him. I don't feel the same about Sorgi or Bomar (yet).
ReplyDeleteGot to agree with CE718, that is one weird tangent you went off on Wayno2424!
ReplyDeleteBack to football and like CE718 I would like to see Carr come back. I didn't think he was that bad while he was here. I actually thought he did well while he played in garbage or clean up time while Eli sat out.
But I've got a bad feeling this season. Seeing how the O line is performing...makes me feel like Eli is going down this year. He's a tough guy with good strength and decent mobility but the O line...if they don't perform is going to get Eli killed this year.
I hope I am wrong...but this feeling is sinking my gut!
holy crap. Anyone who preempts being called a racist by calling themselves one....is probably a racist.
ReplyDeleteFirst off, Alex Smith IS in fact a better QB for the niners than Carr. They have A LOT invested in Smith, so he'll always take priority.
Singletary has completely turned that team around, so to say he knows "just about nothing" is not racist, it's just plain ridiculous.
I'm fine with bringing back a guy who knows the system, but we let him go for a reason and he just went 7 for 17 on a team where he actually had a shot at being the starter.
I enjoy this blog but will have second thoughts about coming on account of Wayno the racist ignorant that confuses football savvy and performance with a perception of white persecution??? You're not a racist because people say you are, you are a racist bc you are.
ReplyDeleteHow does a coach not know anything when he has turned a loser team into a conptitive one?
Racist and an idiot.

Don't understand the willingness to cast Bomar aside for Carr. I like Carr but Bomar's a tough kid with a lot of tread on the tires and he's cheap. I say invest the snaps with him if it comes time.
ReplyDeleteAlso, maybe he can return some punts.
Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteYou'll have "second thought about coming on.." [this blog]because of what Wayno wrote? Man! You should be glad you were not raised in my neighborhood. Or worked at the places I've worked. And most people work at.
You are one sensitive dude, dude.
Anyway.....I want to see how long Mara thinks he can keep selling this product at the prices he is selling them at. Not long is my guess. Mara is no fool. Unless something really surprising happens I suspect we are going to have a house cleaning at the end of this season. They have Eli, and Eli is young enough to build around. If they move quickly.
This is going to be one boring, soft, complaining, talkative, team. Yeah, before the guys shout back, 'the season aint even started yet' and all that stuff. I say save it if it intended for me. There are plenty of Giant fans who know what they saw last year. The def quit. And there are plenty of Giant fans who know what they see this year. An aging and injured Oline. Perhaps a very good D line, if they stay healthy and into the game. No line-backing corps...thin at cornerback.....who knows at safety. Maybe good running backs. If you had an Oline. Mediocre tight ends. Two solid receivers. The rest unknown. Piss poor to mediocre Special Teams play. High draft choices that are busts whether thru injury or thru just be lousy.
Just heard DERRICK WARD got released!!!! Do you guys think Brown/Ware are better than he?
ReplyDeleteI realize I already failed at this above...but we shouldn't allow ourselves to be so easily triggered by the one "bad apple" in the bunch...
ReplyDeleteOK, I was going to resist commenting again but how exactly has Mike Singletary done a good job? He is a terrible coach full of bs motivational tactics where his only motivation is to get in front of a camera. He gets a free pass for some reason like he is a genius. When SF makes the playoffs in the worst division let me know.
ReplyDeletewayno, he is a genius because he gets paid to sit on the 50 yard line. doesnt even need to purchase a PSL
ReplyDeletejme said... yeah. You're right. I thought (still do) that comparing MS (but also anyone) to OJ Simpson on account that they're both black was to much.
ReplyDeleteI mean knock his football life all you want but come'n!! Why go there?
Football-wise, MS seems to get his guys to respond which is something the Gmen coaches are having a hard time doing with our roster.
As Earl twirls and swirls the pearls of carribean & atlantic clams, I ponder (no, not willie!) these thoughts about the 2010 NYG's:
ReplyDelete1. Does Eli's new helmet make him look like the great gazoo? ...am I reading reports that Eli is rusty? How can Eli & his WR's be rusty? Do you throw the ball in practice with your head or arm? I could see; Tittle to Shofner, Tarkenton to Morrison... or even Snead to Grimm being described back in the camp days as 'rusty', but these guys seemingly train 24/7 365 days! Timing should not be as great an issue as it has seemed in these games.
2. I am now in the mindset that the KR/PR game will be a crapshoot. I thought mr Hixon would be missed, but not nearly to the level we have seen. This was the 1 opportunity for S Moss to make the difference...and look what happens... he is on IR.
3. Jesus H Chrysler!... what is up Mr Dodge? Giants fans realize now how important the effortless Sean Landetta's, Dave Jenning's, Jeff Feagles, so called Plymouth rocks of Giants punting history, were to the success of the team. Will this season bring an adventure on every punt? This team has not seen since that adventure since the days of Matt Allen/Rodney Wiliams. Anyone for bringing Brad Maynard back?
Two quick things, first on Wayno's ridiculous comment: I agree, I don't think Singletary is a good coach, I think he's an average coach, who, once there's a problem in the locker room, it's all going to fall apart because all he does is yell, berate and drop his pants.
ReplyDeleteBut what people had a problem with is how you prefaced it with that racist remark. He's not a good coach, just like Tim Lewis was a bad coordinator, but so are white people (Bill Sheridan). It was uncalled for to make that racist comment. I think most people agree he's not a good coach, and it has nothing to do with race.
Secondly, I don't know if anyone cares, but Peter King just picked the Giants to win the division.
Wayno - Is Singletary a worse coach than Ray Handley? Was the fact that Ray was in completely over his head have ANYTHING to do with the color of HIS skin? BTW - Singletary has been married to the same woman since 1984. Your ignorance grows daily. You used to somewhat amusing in your stupidity, now you're just an insufferable ass.
ReplyDeleteSingeltary gets a free pass because of his race and anybody who thinks he is a bad coach is a racist. Reverse racism, that is my point. And what racist comment did I make?
ReplyDeleteWayno2424, does it again? Just because Singletary feels as if Alex Smith is better (which he should be as he is more familiar with the system) than David Carr, that makes him an idiot. Well isn't that the pot calling the kettle black (no pun intended).
ReplyDeleteFor crying out loud, please explain why he is getting a free pass. He went 5-4 went he took over and 8-8 last year. Not to mention, he helped light a fire under their best receiver, Vernon Davis, and, by coincidence (not exactly), was selected to his 1st Pro Bowl during the 1st full year under the reigns of Singletary.
ReplyDeleteI mean really, nobody's anointing him as the best coach ever, but to say that he's getting a pass is beyond overboard. Our very own Tom Coughlin was merely 68-60 before coming to the Giants. Not exactly a lights record.
Wayno, you're not a racist for thinking MS is a bad coach; you're a racist if you think he's a bad coach b/c of his race, which clearly isn't your reasoning. Although, your unfounded defensiveness points to some deeper issue that probably IS racism.
ReplyDeleteCan we get this train back on the tracks?
"And what racist comment did I make?"
ReplyDeleteYou brought up race where it had absolutely no place. You want to make the argument that Singletary is a bad coach. Fine. Use facts. Support your argument BEYOND just stating your opinion that Carr is better than Smith. YOU, no one else, brought race into the conversation and then, adding gas to the fire, you associate the man with a murdering sociopath based strictly on the color of his skin (yeah, that PROVES he's a bad coach!). Your reasoning is childish, your arguments are devoid of facts, and you come here daily and rant and rave over yet another perceived slight to "your world". Yes, Wayno all the blacks, all the Maras and all the Tischs, hell, the whole world is against you. It's one giant (pardon the pun) conspiracy against Wayno. Stop listening to talk radio, go back on your meds and seriously consider seeing a shrink. Your tenuous grip on reality has finally become undone.
I like Carr but Bomar's a tough kid with a lot of tread on the tires and he's cheap.I mean really, nobody's anointing him as the best coach ever, but to say that he's getting a pass is beyond overboard.
