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.

Still likely better than AO12. And that's all that would of mattered.Hellbound wrote: Wed Aug 06, 2025 4:20 pm Yep. He's all arm and nothing else. Just like a former qb here, he's the same exact qb he was in college. 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

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.NoThanksSir wrote: Wed Aug 06, 2025 4:52 pm The O'Connell obsession is weird to me.

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.

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.NoThanksSir wrote: Wed Aug 06, 2025 4:52 pm 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.

I 100% agree. Its just tiring seeing those wanting to get rid of him for an even worse backup player.Attyla wrote: Thu Aug 07, 2025 11:43 am 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 love backups on the field. Late in the game. When it’s fully in hand.Attyla wrote: Thu Aug 07, 2025 11:43 am 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.

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.
