Watch: “Pisses me off!” NFL Twitter left unimpressed with Derek Carr’s tears after the Raiders suffered humiliating defeat against the Colts

The Las Vegas Raiders fell to the Indianapolis Colts 25-20 at the Allegiant Stadium on Sunday, which has dented the beliefs of their players as well as their fans. Having reached their first playoffs last season since 2002, this season has been quite in contrast.
The Las Vegas Raiders looked in total shambles as they took on a depleted Indianapolis Colts team that featured Parks Frazier, who is inexperienced as an offensive coordinator, and Jeff Saturday as interim coach.
The Raiders are currently 2-7 for the current season and are tied with the Cincinnati Bengals (2017) for the third-most losses without a win in one-score games in a season, since 2000. It’s such a disappointment given that they started on such a good note.
QB Derek Carr chokes up on stage as Raiders fall to the Colts
Raiders quarterback Derek Carr was all emotional in his post-match conference and couldn’t hold back tears as he addressed the reporters. Derek Carr had to hold back tears several times as he tried to fathom an explanation for such a poor performance.
“I love the Silver and Black and I’m going to give it everything I can every time I go out there,” Carr said. “And I can’t speak for everybody, for every man, what’s going on in their head, but I can tell you what’s going on in my head and I’m going to give it all that I can, every single time.”
“Sorry for being emotional,” he said. “I’m just pissed off about some of the things, you know, that a lot of us try and do just to practice. What we put our bodies through, just to sleep at night.”
However, it seems that Raiders fans are not impressed by Derek Carr’s emotional show and want better play rather than tears. Fans called out Carr and said that this is becoming a regular occurrence every time they are facing defeat.
The Raiders are now last in the AFC West. And if Derek really means his tearful words, he will have to start showcasing practical results right away.
