Re: Possible Reason for Carlos's Problems?

If he knew a vision issue was causing his problems, he would have had laser eye surgery by now, he can afford it.

The eye doc here in PA that I get my annual vision tests from (have 20/20 but on arthritis medication that requires eye testing as a precaution) has done Lasik for several members of the Ravens. He's one of the top eye surgeons on the East Coast. It's not uncommon for players to have laser eye correction, so I'd think the team medical staff would have diagnosed Carlos and had it corrected if it were a legitimate problem.

I think it's mental, he just chokes. He drops floaters and nearly EVERY ball that touches his hands. Even with bad vision, he should be able to feel what the ball gets there and should catch the softer passes. He doesn't.

Look at that video I posted with the drop vs. Dallas. Most high school CBs could make that catch...it was like it was intended for him.
