Poor David Carr.  He has been sacked an astounding 208 times in the 60 games he’s played in (59 starts) which proves how tough he is.  A little closer look at the numbers suggest that he’s getting quite better as a QB despite the beating he’s taken.  In his last two seasons (32 starts) he has completed 60.9% of his passes for 6,019 yards with 30 TD passes and 25 interceptions.  When compared to his first two seasons…..28 games (27 starts) 54.1% completions for 4,605 yards with 18 TD and 28 INT, you can start to see the improvement.  Adding Eric Moulds was a huge move for Carr if the line protects him because now Andre Johnson won’t be double-teamed as much.

The Texans better hope Carr stays healthy.  In the off-season the Texans signed Sage Rosenfels to be Carr’s back-up.  Rosenfels has been primarily a clipboard holder in Miami and Washington and for good reason.  He has only played in 13 games (2 starts) and completed 49.5% of his passes for 776 yards with six TD and six INT.  The Texans will be picking high in the draft for sure if Rosenfels has to play.
