I don’t get the AOC hate. I mean I understand minor frustrations with him but I feel like a lot of people want to trash him so quick. Like let the dude cook and I think we could have a solid qb. I think with AP and Hardegree he could really fine tune and tweak his few flaws. I think he could be the real deal just get him a solid backup but I think a lot of us fans are sleeping on my boy. He’s been holding his own, especially with so much change during his rookie year. End rant. Stop the raider hate.
Damn dude. It’s the hope that kills you and you just killed the hope. In all seriousness, well put. He’s very raw at a not very raw age and the verdict is still out. He obviously isn’t showing signs of a missed prodigy that slipped to us, but he has shown some positive tools. I imagine he’s feeling a lot of pressure. It seems this team can do that to guys with regularity. Good offensive players come here and suddenly they aren’t the same. I think this fanbase has a way of adding extra pressure because we’ve grown impatient and been that way for so long and for good reason.
He probably isn’t the answer, but no harm in giving him the reps. I just hope this doesn’t turn into a case of our defense suddenly being amazing and the offense unable to score because we are cursed with flip flopping which one can perform on a given day and hardly ever put both good forms out there the same day.
