That said, I'm starting to question my logic regarding scrambling QBs. Minshew has much better legs than AOC, but he got sacked many more times last year (29 vs 10). Geno, also a better runner) is on about the same pace as Minshew. I'm not sure how that works.
Because it is about feeling pressure or getting the ball out over spinning into sacks or holding it too long or being unable to pick up blitzes.

Sacks are as much on the QB as the O-Line.

Which is something Geno can't do, as seen by his 15 INTs last year. He has too much misplaced moxie.

Which is why we shouldn't have traded for a quarterback or hired a head coach that left there.

Raiders: trying to be the cleverest team in the room.

So don't hire a hc that's been successful or trade for a qb that's been successful?

47-50 overall record and 0-1 in the playoffs is the new successful i guess. Committed to mediocrity baby!

Was he not successful in Seattle?
Was Pete not successful at his coaching stops? Especially in Seattle? Did him & Geno not have success together?

And the dude you pounded the table for also has a losing record. Not sure what your point is here. We got a mediocre qb with a losing record and you pined for a mediocre qb with a losing record. Seems you're calling yourself out here too. Did you think this one out?

Did I ever f[raiders_icon]cking say Darnold was successful though? No I didn't. But he IS and WAS the better option than Geno whether you want to believe it or not. So don't twist shit like you always do. Your act is tired.

Is and was is an opinion that’s exclusively yours

There’s a reason the market wasn’t flaming hot for the darnold sweepstakes.

Im not twisting shit. I asked if he and Caroll were successful in Seattle. You didn't answer that question at all and chose to turn shit into an argument. By the way since you are obviously oblivious to this, what you just stated is entirely an opinion. You're opinion doesn't turn anything into facts no matter how many caps lock words you use. But as usual you're acting like a toddler throwing a temper tantrum and causing arguments because someone posted something that you didn't agree with. Talk about someone's act getting tired.
