ALAMEDA – Derek Carr and Amari Cooper spent some down time on the practice field Monday, working out kinks that have shown up on game tape. It's not just between quarterback and rookie receiver. There was plenty to critique from Sunday’s exhibition loss to Arizona, where the first-unit offense couldn’t find the end zone in nine series.
The running game was non-existent. The passing game looked good at times, disjointed in others. Overall, offense play wasn’t good enough against the Cardinals, and Carr said after that missed opportunities left the offense upset. It didn’t last long. The film review wasn’t cause for great frustration because of one thought coursing through Carr’s mind.
