“If You Lose to Baker Mayfield…”: 3x SB Champ Teases Derek Carr on Live TV Using Former No. 1 Pick’s Example

Former Raiders superstar Derek Carr made a lot of noise in the quarterback market before free agency. After talking to multiple teams, he eventually signed with New Orleans Saints. Notably, New Orleans pushed for a trade early in February; however, the Raiders did not allow it because Carr did not have a trade clause in his contract. Meanwhile, during the recent episode of the ‘Undisputed’ show, NFL Hall of Famer and 3x Super Bowl champion Shannon Sharpe made fun of Carr, using Baker Mayfield‘s reference.

Notably, Sharpe and his debate partner Skip Bayless often engage in heated arguments regarding various topics. But this time, they both agreed on one particular thing involving the Rams‘ QB Mayfield.

Shannon Sharpe takes a dig at Derek Carr at the expense of Baker Mayfield

During the show, Bayless and Sharpe were discussing the Raiders, acquiring Jimmy Garoppolo from the 49ers after letting Carr go. Then, Bayless reminded Sharpe about Carr’s terrible performance against the Rams and Mayfield in the 2022 season. In that game, the Raiders lost to the Rams even after taking a sizable lead till the fourth quarter.

“By the way, spit up a big lead against Baker Mayfield too,” Bayless said to Sharpe. Then Sharpe hilariously agreed that he forgot about that and said, “If you lose to Baker Mayfield, you got to go.“

Certainly, Sharpe and Bayless mocked both Carr and Mayfield at the same time. On the other hand, both the ‘Undisputed’ hosts agreed that Garoppolo is better than Carr and could help the Raiders in the 2023 season.

Carr opened up about his bitter ending with the Raiders

Notably, after leaving the Raiders, Carr posted a heartfelt message on his social media thanking all the fans. Although he felt heartbroken by the exit, he refused to point fingers at anyone.

However, it seems like he changed his mind during his introductory press conference for the Saints. In the presser, he spilled some truth about accepting a trade while being with the Raiders. “I was very willing to accept a trade… But I was only able to talk to one team. I was only given permission to talk to one team… I can’t possibly make that decision without being able to talk to other people,” Carr said during his presser.

Despite the bitter end, Carr is still thankful to the Raiders organization for picking him in the NFL Draft, as he spent 9 wonderful years with the Las Vegas franchise. Now, he feels happy to join the Saints and wishes to take the franchise to the next level.
