Here’s where I’m coming from…

AOC is doing great. His numbers are right there with the top of the league after three starts. He’s new and will need time to develop, of course…. but he showed he can hang with a top three defense.

Benefits here, he’s cheap. We have a great rookie contract to spend cap money elsewhere to build up the team around him. Bolster the OLine, pump up the defense, this is the way.

    In 3 starts, he has 600 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs. He’s benefiting a lot from a rejuvenated run game.

    He’s been serviceable, I don’t see where he’s been “great”.

      Yeah real head scratcher saying AOC is up there with top of the league talent. He’s barely getting 200 yards a game, struggled in the red zone… and if we are down even one touchdown in the 4th… i wouldn’t be too confident in a game winning drive from him. Its still too early to tell, but he is far from top of the league so far, and more of a game manager rn

    Too early. No need to make this decision now. Axtually, I’d argue that we need to keep into a variety of options to see what the next best move is, rather than thing ourself down to anything or anyone

    They have the rest of the year to figure this out. He and the OC are tight, and AP has a good plan to pound the run and quick hit pass routes to allow the game to slow down for AOC. I like him a lot. His accuracy is a strength. Quicker reads, decisions, and ball control need to be an emphasis.

    hes not, the NFL, hell the Raiders are littered with QBs that we thought were the future, hell we drafted Eldridge Dickey one round AHEAD of Stabler, you just never know how stuff comes out. One thing is for sure, he may GROW into something, but most great ones, even near great, show you something right away.

    My favorite post so far was the one showing AOC with a higher QBR(or passer rating, w/e) than all the other QBs the Jets have made look bad, magomes, Allen, etc

    “AOC is doing great. His numbers are right there with the top of the league after three starts.”

    Ummm, what? Which numbers are at top of the league? Yikes dude, this just shows how delusional some Raiders fans truly are.

    I admit I’m intrigued, and he has the rest of the season to prove it, so let’s see what’s he’s got.

    As much as we understand this is a 10 week job application process for AP, Bo, and even Patrick Graham. It’s the same for AOC. They’re all passing the grade after two weeks. Let’s keep reviewing every week.

    Now let’s throw logic out the window, in my opinion you’re correct lol. He gives me Brady potential vibes with a slightly better set of wheels.
