No clue where to post some stuff not necessarily team related but could be? Feel free to delete if this belongs somewhere else.



Maxx and Parsons would be nasty. I probably wouldn’t pay the price though.

Can throw a ball a country mile but can't do anything else a qb is required to do. People see that arm and get all giddy, forgetting there's much more to playing qb other than throwing a pretty ball

Still likely better than AO12. And that's all that would of mattered.

Id take Aidan over Milton 10 times out of 10 as our backup qb.

Lol you a fan of cement feet huh

The O'Connell obsession is weird to me. Both his fans and the haters. Dude is a very good backup. I'm glad he's a Raider.

He moves better than he's given credit for.

He really doesn’t. He’s terrible at “moving”. He also has to correct pocket presence. I’ve seen multiple strip sacks in camp on him

Thousands died on a hill supporting a QB who was the absolute antithesis of a “Raider” and the softest human being I’ve ever seen play pro football.

We just traded a CB and folk acted like we traded away an All-Pro future Hall of Famer.

It reminds me of when Paul Walker passed (God rest his soul), and all of a sudden he went from well, Paul Walker, to Daniel Day-Lewis.

People are emotionally irrational about damn near anything.

Go Raiders, and yeah, he’s perfect as a backup.

Amen

Don’t wish injuries on anyone but he might be out week 2.

I don't hate him, he seems a decent guy. I like him as a backup, I just never want our backups to be on the field.

I 100% agree. Its just tiring seeing those wanting to get rid of him for an even worse backup player.

Slater out for the season.

I love backups on the field. Late in the game. When it’s fully in hand.

When do we ever have a game Fully in hand? We don't lol

We're all emotionally tethered to this team in some way. Just like when a HC get's hired and tries to turn the Raiders into pats west and some are good with that right?

Thank god for some Raider fans that question the process instead of blind loyalty.
