Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is well versed on losing press conferences. He went through several during his rookie year, when those Raiders lost 10 straight and finished 3-13.
He was frequently asked about learning experiences and his personal development during a difficult campaign bereft of new storylines, about how growing up on the job might help him and this franchise in the future.
That line of questioning has been absent from this early season, where the Raiders have won and lost a few extremely competitive games. It showed up after Sunday’s 16-10 loss to the Denver Broncos, and Carr wanted no part of it.
