Despite optimistic attitude, Derek Carr aware Raiders seek furtherance

Derek Carr is a super positive guy. The Raiders quarterback doesn't slam teammates in public. He doesn't sell guys down the river or make excuses even when everybody knows he was playing with less than a full deck.

That happened throughout 2018 while working with two rookie tackles, injuries on the interior line and a rotating cast of receivers.

Carr never complained while getting sacked 51 times in 2018, and didn’t point fingers when playmakers kept getting hurt or traded.

After the 2018 season mercifully ended in Kansas City, Carr finally conceded the obvious.
