AOC is a breath of fresh air after DC left. He's our QB and he'll make great things happen for the Raiders.💪🏽🏴‍☠️

[@patricklavigne4453]

O’Connell doesn’t hold a candle to Carr. If the Raiders still had Carr every analyst and sports writer would be talking about the Raiders being a Super Bowl contender. With O’Connell the Raiders will be lucking to win eight games. Let’s put it real. O’Connell is still trying to figure out defenses. He is going to struggle as a starter and be replaced by week three.

[@IDislikeTheNewYoutube]

We were almost a playoff team with the worst QB room in the nfl last season. QB is probably still the worst position on the entire team. With Derek and without McDaniels we'd have easily been in the playoffs and maybe even won a game. DC with his 80-90 QBR and a top 10 defense and productive running game would make the playoffs every year. Carr is and was a scapegoat for so many years for fans. He was a good qb. Not great, good. We haven't had good QB's for years prior or since. He was never the "problem".

Then I do believe that is kid has earned the right to show the nation what he can do w/o dysfunctionality in the team.

[@CoreyC68]

Jesus. So lame of a comment. He will NEVER put up numbers like Carr did. Hope I'm wrong but it's simple logic

[@r4life70]

Love the kid hopefully he has a great season

This dude is who we wanna see QB1 it's a duel!

[@richardwhite2928]

Damn I didn’t realize he was that solid. I thought he was the second best QB from the ‘23 class simply because he finished the season but damn I didn’t realize he was 2nd to Stroud in a lot of metrics. That has to be a good feeling to Raider Nation.

[@MrArichG]

Aiden is gonna be our breakout player this upcoming season.

[@GovernmentCheeseLover]

He doesn't know the system yet lol, actually Minshew has understood this system gar better than Aidan so far, not saying Aidan won't, just saying that he knows it now simply is not true.

[@rockethead5705]

It's a new O.C. this year, the QBs are on even playing field, Minshew with more experience all around. May the best QB get the keys

[@goldenking562LBC]

[@stevenmartin667]

Aiden ain’t playing lil bro, you don’t know ball, Minshew is the starter, casual raider fans need to stop acting like he was a good prospect, he’s not. Pedigree matters!

Really hoping this kid has a good career. Even if he turn's out not to be our QB1, I like the guy. He's honest, takes the game seriously, a definite worker and im guessing a good teammate 🏴‍☠️

[@MaxNikitin-qb3ts]

Ap has the last call decision who starts at least I believe aoc with be starter first game an I think the preseason they both get a Game aoc more confident just win babies AUTUM WINDS 😊

[@SymboIik]

Aiden deserves his time to start and give a shot. GM will be there to help and guide him and take over if needed. The Raiders will be a decent team this year thanks to the DL. We need to win our division first before we talk SuperBowl.

[@poposaynogo1]

AOC is that dude who knows all the magicians secrets. LOL

[@Name-uv8hi]

Super solid, lots of accountability

[@LM8Gaming]

Pretty sure 99% of Raider fans are rooting for AOC to succeed, it's just the 1% that's the loudest. I'm hoping he kills it out there, our last QB wearing #12 did pretty damn well, hoping that lives on!

[@patricklavigne4453]

The Raiders offense is going to sputter if O’Connell is placed in as the starting quarterback. He has only played half a season and that was a rookie trying to figure things out. He is still trying to figure the position out. He still has a big problem on reading defenses and he is still inexperienced and the team will have major growing pains with O’Connell trying to play the position. If he starts he will be replaced by Minshew by week three.

[@tomasquintanar2925]

Just like the Raiders were for sure going to draft a QB. Just like Minshew was for sure going to be the Week 1 starter. Crazy how you people are rooting for this dude to fail so hard.

[@JWC_4_2_0]

If AOC can play like he did against the Chargers on a consistent basis, he's gonna be a damn good QB.

[@goldenking562LBC]

Minshew is a better option than 0'Connell however neither of the two is the answer we need to take things to the next level! 💯

nothing against Gardner but I hope AOC wins the job

[@danielraymadden]

Aiden outplayed Mahone in the Chiefs game he had more completions yards 1st downs...he may not have thrown a td the ofense did score on a run play...but he kept Mahone off the field and he made bigger pass plays...he threw a better game...the defense followed a plan....GET THE BALL AND SCORE AS FAST AS YOU CAN...and they did....unlesh the beast....you must become the beast to unlesh the beast....go to the beast and learn his ways....
