Carr has been sacked a lot, I recall seeing him take smelling salts on the sideline. Like a boxer in a fog, a qb cannot fuction with head injury. The NFL and Riddell found 70% of these blows are to the jaw area. The Patriots use a medical device designed to counteract the boxers Glass jaw. When fitted with this players say the dizziness, sensation of seeing stars and concussion go away. Carr will be a more productive player when fitted. This is an issue the owners should be talking about. http://www.mahercor.com
