You don't go 12-4 solely because of a quarterback...give them some credit
Serious question: How much NFL do you watch? A top QB is absolutely worth 4-6 wins a season. So yeah, without Carr, it is not even remotely a stretch to say the Raiders are no better than 7-9. That's 5 wins right there. It matters an absolute #### ton, there's a reason Goff and Wentz went #1 and #2 last year, even though purely on likely outcome they are both worth 2nd round picks. And they didn't just go #1 and #2, they had teams trading up to get them. But teams are desperate for QBs. Houston, again, go back and look at the list of their starting QBs I posted a bit back. Half of those QBs aren't even good backups. And they've won 9 games a year 3 years running.
