Every organization is constantly in a different state when it comes to its players.

For the Las Vegas Raiders and specifically for their offense, the Silver and Black have put together an overall older, mature and veteran group.

That changes the way Coach Josh McDaniels coaches the offense.

“The way that Josh (McDaniels) coaches us, I think the level at which he's talking and the things that he's demanding and asking of us, it's good because usually when you have a lot of young guys, the training has to slow down,” Carr said after mandatory mini-camp.

“And Josh said we're going full steam ahead and he trusts that with a veteran group of guys who have a lot of football behind them, they can pick it up and run with it. And so, you definitely feel that.”

It's not something a coach has to tell his team, but rather something that is felt, observed and expected.

“You can definitely sense that in the way that they coach and what they've thrown at us and what they expect from us from day one,” Carr said. “I think Josh would probably speak on it better, but for me, I feel like that that has been a big advantage for us. But from a learning aspect, from an execution standpoint, just keep working and get better at it.”
