This loss was expected TBH. Raiders fought hard to the end IMO. People saying O’Connell isn’t the guy… who you replacing him with?

Still proud of this team and the direction.

    Ppl expect a lot from rookies. Like anything less then rookie of the year and breaking passing records, then he’s not the guy. Smh.

    I believe in AP. I also believe Champ will get us a better QB. We have a chance to not settle at QB and I hope we take it.

    You draft a QB with higher upside, which a majority of the prospects have over AOC. AP has potential, but his success highly depends on the staff he assembles.

    People who say these things actually think that too three QB’s just grow on trees. AOC is good enough where if we give him a few more seconds back there he will make good reads and not rush his passes. The line on both sides of the ball need draft attention, not our QB.

    I’m worried about the end of first half coaching.

    Not super sold on AOC, I think we should keep drafting.

    Either way, inageee today was a positive.

    We looked like shit on offense(maybe our worst game of the year tbh) and still had them on the tops for 59:30 of the game. We’re a good team who needs a starting caliber qb, bc rn we’re using a good qb2. And I hate being hard on AOC, because it’s not his fault our front office thought jimmy was the answer for 2023.

    AOC had a chance to tie the game with less than 30 seconds left and threw to a receiver in the end zone. We’re not getting that with JMD and/or Jimmy G. I’m not sold on the offensive play calling but everything else was definitely acceptable.

    Defense playing they ass off though!

    AOC is a rookie. He’s honestly playing like one too lol he has his ups and downs. But he definitely kept going for the bomb way too much. He was ignoring easy check downs that were at times necessary to get the offense going.

    Either way, we need a dynamic offensive coordinator and a better O-line and d-line.

    AOC should get the rest of the year. Regardless how he does, we should still draft a QB and let them compete.

      We should trade Jimmy G, Marcus Peters and a 2035 first round pick for 4 first round picks. Use our top 2 picks on the best OL available. Pick 3 on a CB. And pick 4 on OL. Use the rest of the picks however and ride with AOC.

    I believe in Champ Kelly and AP. Id rather have a defensive minded team and have a QB and OC that can make the most of it. Like the Mike Tomlin or Pete Carroll (Bill Belicheck too, but fuck the Patriots)

    Who you replacing O’Connell with? Literally anyone. There will be a new head-coach and QB next season so it’s not like it matters.

    Michael Penix Jr. Do whatever it takes to get that guy.

    I believe in AP, he’s got the attitude and is building a culture. It’s like we found our own Dan Campbell, now AP just needs the staff around him to help him execute.

    I don’t believe in Aidan at all and you don’t have to believe in him to start him.

    We’re not replacing him mid season, we don’t have anyone better but that doesn’t mean we need to keep him as our starter next season. We see what he plays like down the stretch against a mixture of good and okay teams, maybe he suddenly finds his form or maybe he looks like he did today.
