"Why does everyone assume Derek Carr gonna make Davante Adams worse?" - NFL fans react to Brett Favre's controversial statement on former Packers player

All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams changed quarterbacks this off-season when he went from the Green Bay Packers with Aaron Rodgers to the Las Vegas Raiders with Derek Carr.Adams will now have his former college teammate and close friend in Carr throwing him the ball instead of four-time MVP Rodgers. The trade became evident when Adams no longer wished to play in Green Bay with Rodgers, whose future in the league remains unclear.While Rodgers is a more renowned quarterback and has accomplished far more in his career, Carr has been a solid quarterback since entering the league. He just hasn't had as much success as Rodgers.The Raiders QB will be entering his ninth season in the NFL and has only made the playoffs twice (2016, 2021). He's never had a target like Adams, and the fact that they were college teammates should help out even more on the field.While Adams is expected to still do well with the Raiders, one former Green Bay quarterback thinks Adams will not be as productive.Brett Favre said (via TMZ) he'd be surprised if Adams has the same year as the previous one.Favre said:&quot;I'd be shocked if Davante Adams had the same year. I think Derek Carr is a very good quarterback, but he's not in Aaron's league yet. May never be. And that's no disrespect.&quot;Michael Fabiano@Michael_FabianoDo you think Brett Favre is right?3495202Do you think Brett Favre is right? https://t.co/5n1DAmj1CaFans react to Brett Favre's comments on Derek CarrThis Twitter user questions why some people think Derek Carr will make Davante Adams worse.Ben@Benlehrj@Michael_Fabiano Why does everyone assume DC gonna make Davante worse?

Rodgers with all that &quot;Talent&quot;. Wat have they ever won. #RaiderNation5@Michael_Fabiano Hell no. Rodgers with all that &quot;Talent&quot;.

Rodgers 4100. Adams is now in an offense with much better threats around him. The defense will not be able to double him at all or they will be torched by Waller and Renfro. People are asleep on this Raider offense.41@Michael_Fabiano Carr threw for 4800 yards last year without Adams. Rodgers 4100. Adams is now in an offense with much better threats around him.

But name me another receiver that Carr has had that’s even close to Davante Adam’s league. Works both ways, right?4@Michael_Fabiano I think that’s fair to say, sure. But name me another receiver that Carr has had that’s even close to Davante Adam’s league. Works both ways, right?Another Twitter user agreed with Favre's take, partly only because Las Vegas has many other weapons such as Darren Waller, Hunter Renfrow, and Josh Jacobs.night uchiha@Emmanue84412348@Michael_Fabiano He’s right and wrong. Davante wont produce as much as in GB but it’s nothing against Carr or Tae. But how are you supposed to produce as much as when you were the only target to now that your teammates are Hunter Renfrow, Darren Waller and Josh Jacobs?16@Michael_Fabiano He’s right and wrong.

However, imo Carr is under the most pressure out of everyone in the league this year. On paper, Raiders offense should be great. Carr needs to get over that hump of “never won a playoff game.”@Michael_Fabiano He’s not going to have the same year because the Raiders have more weapons.
