The whole team had to deal with that too yet they came and performed including rookies like Tre and Mayers. Wilson was a disappointment
AOC is nothing but a sorry lazy ass bum and a total bust. He failed to deliver a super bowl championship to the Silver and Black as the Raiders QB last season just like Derek Carr had failed to deliver a super bowl championship to the Silver and Black the previous 9 seasons. The Raiders need to a hurry up and draft a real NFL QB who is a total gunslinger who has a cannon for an arm. The Raiders need a real NFL QB who is throw the damn football for at least 20 yards per attempt, throw for at least 400 passing yards per game while scoring at least 4 to 5 TDs per game. I'm so sick and tired of this losing mentality and mediocre bs. It's obvious that AOC just like Derek Carr, Gardner Minshew and Jimmy G doesn't know how to play professional NFL football as the Raiders QB so get this damn bum outta here!
What 2nd yr player is worse? He still isn’t more than average AT BEST qb talent and Raiders deserve better than that after 9 long years of excuses for DC. Let’s not go thru that again AP said it himself before the draft that worst case scenario we have to go with what we have but best case was getting a qb in the draft. Well we’re in the worst case scenario and have to roll the dice, thanks TT for that.
hahahahaha, minimum? You obviously have no clue who he threw to. And he brought a team to the big 10 championship from a division that was the weakest in football lol.

I have supported him form day one, I am sooo ready to see him play this season, I am so frustrated that the very few expect good results when the tape shows the opposite. You hit it on the head a lot of starting QB's do not throw with anticipation, he does, and Derek Carr could not very well. He takes care of the football and had a excellent career QB rating at Purdue of 145 for four years with average WR's. My comp started out very non-analytically, he looks like Kurt Warner facially, right, then he is the about the same height and mobility. Kurt had about 10 percent more velocity on the ball. Welcome the the greatest show in Vegas.
I'm with you, I think the film shows a few things to work on like consistent footwork, but since when can you expect perfection from a rookie? Especially one who got no first team reps until November. QBR (Quarterback Ranking) has a maximum of 100. Passer Rating has a max of 158.3 - I think that's the one you were talking about. AOC has shown development, accuracy, determination, (physical and mental) toughness and intelligence. He has a ton of potential.
For starters a QB is only as good as the linemen blocking for him. If you look at our oline on tape at the end of last yr,we had one of the best lines in the league.When we were running on people Zeus was blowing it up ave.120+ a game,the only way he could do that is hat on hat,physical, no missed blocks.Our line is going to be even better this yr,this QB can throw,he is smart,and he is a leader! If he stays healthy and we block,with all the weapons around him I expect him to have a monster of a yr. Everybody wants a lamar,but most of the QB's that have won SBS have been like AO,all these qbs had there head on a swizival, move to the left or right,scramble alittle so they don't get sacked.He is going to be just fine !
Did you see the 6 sacks he took from Khalil Mack? Did you see the game where he didn’t complete a pass for 3 consecutive quarters? Did you see the late and high throws? Did you see the over thrown balls? No one is asking for a running qb we’re asking for a mobile qb who CAN run and extend like the top qbs in the league (pm, Jh, jb, ja, bp, TT, jl) to name a few.
Really hope AOC balls out this year. Thrown into a tough situation last year and stood up, took the hits, ignores the negativity and very down to earth. Lotsof people setting the bar at Mahones level, which is ridiculous. Look at the QB positions around the league, Watson and Laurance getting huge money for "potential", Fields, Z Wilson, Jones considered busts, people talking about getting rid of Dak, replacing him with who??. Purdy still trying to get respect outside of San Fran. People need to step back a bit and let players and teams develop. They go on about us missing on a QB in the draft, no guarantee that any of the top 6 guys this year will become superstars.

great vid man, it’s about time someone did a AOC Hype vid. Thank you so much. i’m gonna use this vid as fuel to the fire under all the yt Raiders suck ass podcasters that talked shite about him all the way until AP said it. What he did last season was damn near heroic. Greatness is this guys DNA. With all he’s overcome i just hope his greatness is with the Raiders. Let’s Go!
I expect Aiden to show major growth. Much of it is down to getting 1st team reps, a system designed to take advantage of his strengths, elite talent around him. Add in the intangibles: self-belief, trust of the coaches and players, the experience of actually playing against NFL defenses. With his skill-set, hard work and intelligence....he could be elite
@@6916dog he had 1st team reps he was the starter. They cut the playbook down what else do you want them to do? He played against nfl defenses and they shut him down, including a 6 sack game by Khalil Mack and kept him from completing a pass for 3 consecutive quarters. His skill set is best as a backup and spot starter but yall been brainwashed into thinking it’s ok to have a mid level (at best) qb with talent around him who can’t and doesn’t elevate those players. We need someone with more talent, skill and athleticism which AP said he wanted before the draft. He said worst case scenario we have to go with ao… WORST case scenario and that’s from AP himself. Thanks to TT we’re in worst case scenario now
@@decalphotos2295“Let’s go worst case scenario, which is what you are going off of. We’re are with Aidan O’Connell. Won five games. What happens if we give this kid a whole offseason, like we are giving the head coach, and an opportunity to grow and learn? Because he played his ass off the last five games. He played better than a lot of guys who got drafted around one, two, and three, for the most part.”
@@decalphotos2295he had first team reps for half the season, with a brand new play caller who had never done it and didn't earn his way into keeping that job. I think they meant having first team reps all off-season. NFL defenses did not shut him down. His last 6 games he threw 9 TDs to 1 INT. He had 4 games over 100, as high as 120, and a game of 96. The Chiefs had one of the best defenses in the league last year, and the Raiders jumped out to an early lead so they were mostly running the ball for the last 3 quarters. Kolton Miller didn't play in that game - and AOC torched the Chiefs in their other matchup. Khalil Mack was not double teamed that whole game because Josh McDaniels was trying to sabotage AOC so he wouldn't have to play him anymore. Under Pierce he lit the Chargers up for like 4 or 5 TDs. His passer rating was better than Mahomes' Rating his rookie year, and only like 9 points lower than Mahomes last year. For a player to improve that quickly in the second half of his rookie year with a new coordinator speaks volumes. The only rookie QB that outplayed him was CJ Stroud. Imagine AOC with a real coordinator and a whole off-season as the #1 guy.
@@isaiahayers1550those guys drafted ahead of him were drafted there bc of their talent. If ao showed that talent in college he would love been a highly regarded qb but wasn’t. Not saying he can’t stick in the nfl, just don’t see him as anything more than average at best. 6 sacks in 1 game!? No completions in 3 consecutive qtr of the same game!? He had snaps in camp last yr too bc he played in every preseason game. The entire offense was in the same situation as ao and they still played at their same level as did ao, which is average.
AOC is indeed the real deal! However, I think its fair to at least note that defenses THIS year will be better prepared for him than they were last year. Sophomore jinx is well established in NFL, especially for QBs. So, I think another show might try to work through how certain qbs have avoided the s-jinx and others have fallen victim--and then re-analyze how AOC will proceed in 2024.
Absolutely AOC will win the starting job. I think Gardner is better but AOC is a competitor. As for his stats I think it will be similar to last season if not a bit better. We’re gonna need magic to do something good this year but it’s possible
I like the kid. I hope he can become a solid NFL starter. If he keeps improving like he did last season, I feel like he might be able to be really good.
How could he be “8th on the depth chart?” When most NFL teams generally only have 2 QB’s on the roster, with another QB on the practice squad…Am I missing something?
He seems like he’s destined to be a starter in the nfl, maybe even win a bowl. No matter where he goes, there becomes injuries or they are thin at qb. He’s gotten lucky, it must be for a reason.
Aiden’s going to be a household name before to long. This kid may not look like much but he can flat out ball. Now that he’s in the NFL he’s only going to get better. Last year was a sample size of his skill set the last four games as he got better with every game.. Everyone already knows what they have in Minshew. Now it’s time to see what we have in Aiden.
I’m more hopeful about AOC than most. Reason why is he has a strong arm that is accurate. Noodle arm QBs with no zip or accuracy you can’t fix. That’s not Aiden. He also has great work ethic from what I’ve heard and seen. Also a humble guy. His only struggles last season was quick decision making in the pocket. He would sometimes freeze or get on the move too late. His last 4 games in particular but overall he was solid for the 8 games he played. He did fail to score in a game and that was scary. I’m excited to see him in year 2. I’m going to be cautiously optimistic though and predict 3800 yards with 23 TDs and 12 INTs.
All of his stats last year came against staggering teams, lets not forget the shutout against the vikings, and not throwing a single completion for 3 quarters against KC. A game manager at best, not even close to being a gunslinger. Dude legit tied Jamarcus Russell's consecutive incompletion record. Worst QB weve had since Russell.
Crown him? I don’t know anyone that’s doing that. I feel like I’m his biggest supporter and I’m expecting to throw a few more than 20TDs. Crown him is way down the line. We just want competency right now. With these weapons he should make huge improvements this season.
If by that you mean a pocket QB, 💯 %. He needs to improve his awareness and get better at decision making. He has the arm and decent aim to be a starter.
Day one of him taking a snap with the Raiders I have believed in him and think he will only get better. Love the breakdown in this video and agree…he is a sleeper!
Defensive ends are too big and fast nowadays too just sit in the pocket. If Aiden can develop an elusive aspect to his game and extend plays with his legs, he will be fine. We shall see.
Exactly what I told my son. He barely remembers Plunkett, but he's so pumped about AO12 that he bought us tickets to the opener in SOFI. Can't wait for Sept 8th.
@randlowe9240 Maybe you can find one of the Monday night match ups of Raiders vs. Chargers. We always had those games between Plunkett and Fouts circled on the calendar.
How many 4th round rookie QBs get thrown into starting during a fired coach scenario, still make a playoff run, put up 60 points in a game against one division rival, then beat the great Kermit Mahomes on Christmas at HOME... I'm all in, and I'm happy that, God forbid, if aiden gets hurt or isn't quite ready, we have my man Minshew ready to rock. SB this year, boys ☠️
Anyone that is making judgements before game 4 with this new system is just clowning us. I think the fact that both QBs have struggled means that it’s likely outside factors that are causing issues.
Week 4 til now he’s a different player?. He went 3 straight qtrs without completing a pass in the chiefs game. These clowns need to stop making videos or atleast do your research
@@frankhernandez6883 lots of people wish for things but that doesn’t win games or more importantly playoff games. I wish I was 6’2”. AP wished for a qb in this years draft. Neither wish happened so don’t hold your breath on ao
@@JunnyB124 no he was the qb in the KC game the defense won for us. He didn’t complete a pass for 3 quarters in that game. Thats not leadership in my book. Nor is that him leading us to a win.

We need someone with more talent, skill and athleticism which AP said he wanted before the draft. He said worst case scenario we have to go with ao… WORST case scenario and that’s from AP himself. Thanks to TT we’re in worst case scenario now
@@decalphotos2295“Let’s go worst case scenario, which is what you are going off of. We’re are with Aidan O’Connell. Won five games. What happens if we give this kid a whole offseason, like we are giving the head coach, and an opportunity to grow and learn? Because he played his ass off the last five games. He played better than a lot of guys who got drafted around one, two, and three, for the most part.”
@@decalphotos2295he had first team reps for half the season, with a brand new play caller who had never done it and didn't earn his way into keeping that job. I think they meant having first team reps all off-season. NFL defenses did not shut him down. His last 6 games he threw 9 TDs to 1 INT. He had 4 games over 100, as high as 120, and a game of 96. The Chiefs had one of the best defenses in the league last year, and the Raiders jumped out to an early lead so they were mostly running the ball for the last 3 quarters. Kolton Miller didn't play in that game - and AOC torched the Chiefs in their other matchup. Khalil Mack was not double teamed that whole game because Josh McDaniels was trying to sabotage AOC so he wouldn't have to play him anymore. Under Pierce he lit the Chargers up for like 4 or 5 TDs. His passer rating was better than Mahomes' Rating his rookie year, and only like 9 points lower than Mahomes last year. For a player to improve that quickly in the second half of his rookie year with a new coordinator speaks volumes. The only rookie QB that outplayed him was CJ Stroud. Imagine AOC with a real coordinator and a whole off-season as the #1 guy.
@@isaiahayers1550those guys drafted ahead of him were drafted there bc of their talent. If ao showed that talent in college he would love been a highly regarded qb but wasn’t. Not saying he can’t stick in the nfl, just don’t see him as anything more than average at best. 6 sacks in 1 game!? No completions in 3 consecutive qtr of the same game!? He had snaps in camp last yr too bc he played in every preseason game.
The entire offense was in the same situation as ao and they still played at their same level as did ao, which is average.
He ain't that bad , satisfactory 💯
@@nikkipacheco6835 and that’s not good enough in this new era of nfl and top tier qbs who can move
AOC WILL BE OUR QB
He has a chance to shock the World. Put in the work and shut everyone up.
I get emotional when it comes to Aidan, I don't think that I ever wanted someone to succeed more. He will be the starting QB.
It’s nice to hear someone be positive about this kid.. I agree with you as well! Go Raiders and I’m rooting for AOC all the way 🏴☠️ ☠️ 🏴☠️
AOC is indeed the real deal! However, I think its fair to at least note that defenses THIS year will be better prepared for him than they were last year. Sophomore jinx is well established in NFL, especially for QBs. So, I think another show might try to work through how certain qbs have avoided the s-jinx and others have fallen victim--and then re-analyze how AOC will proceed in 2024.
@@kenweakley3636 real deal?
Greatly appreciate the raiders content Matty. Main reason I subscribed
Absolutely AOC will win the starting job. I think Gardner is better but AOC is a competitor.
As for his stats I think it will be similar to last season if not a bit better.
We’re gonna need magic to do something good this year but it’s possible
I like the kid. I hope he can become a solid NFL starter. If he keeps improving like he did last season, I feel like he might be able to be really good.
Aiden is goin shock the nfl in major way they sleep on the kid
@@anthonyowens9827 with more games where he can’t complete a pass or will be Khalil Mack’s bitch again for another 6 sack game

AOC Raiders MVP 2024.
Saw homeboy last preseason -been watching, reading, and writing ever since. Obviously excellent; can he become elite.
Yes he's the starter. And I'm gonna say close to 4,000 yards and 24-32 TDs
Fun fact: O'connell was actually 8th on the depth chart when he made it onto the team.
Did not know that
How could he be “8th on the depth chart?” When most NFL teams generally only have 2 QB’s on the roster, with another QB on the practice squad…Am I missing something?
@@JJDonoghuetalking about in college
@@JJDonoghue In college and actually purdue had 9 at the time 😂
@@cj2k867 I believe he was 6
He seems like he’s destined to be a starter in the nfl, maybe even win a bowl. No matter where he goes, there becomes injuries or they are thin at qb. He’s gotten lucky, it must be for a reason.
Make or break for Mr. Aidan O'Connell. This is your chance to prove yourself and stay employed, my young Padawan!
@@adonisguy3243 when he gets benched it won’t mean he’ll be cut, he’ll just go to his more natural nfl position, holding the clipboard
Aiden’s going to be a household name before to long. This kid may not look like much but he can flat out ball. Now that he’s in the NFL he’s only going to get better. Last year was a sample size of his skill set the last four games as he got better with every game.. Everyone already knows what they have in Minshew. Now it’s time to see what we have in Aiden.
There is a lot of aiden throw make you say wow!
@@Phoguy24 like the late throws and the ones that are high when guys are wide open.
@decalphotos2295 he's was a rookie let him learn and see what can he do this season
I’m more hopeful about AOC than most. Reason why is he has a strong arm that is accurate. Noodle arm QBs with no zip or accuracy you can’t fix. That’s not Aiden. He also has great work ethic from what I’ve heard and seen. Also a humble guy. His only struggles last season was quick decision making in the pocket. He would sometimes freeze or get on the move too late. His last 4 games in particular but overall he was solid for the 8 games he played. He did fail to score in a game and that was scary. I’m excited to see him in year 2. I’m going to be cautiously optimistic though and predict 3800 yards with 23 TDs and 12 INTs.
All of his stats last year came against staggering teams, lets not forget the shutout against the vikings, and not throwing a single completion for 3 quarters against KC. A game manager at best, not even close to being a gunslinger. Dude legit tied Jamarcus Russell's consecutive incompletion record. Worst QB weve had since Russell.
I think Aidan said he was 9th on the depth chart, he could have remembered wrong.
Love the guy. Great accuracy.
If he adds some mobility to his game, we should be good
@@jr.9117 how long has he played qb? He’s never been mobile so what makes you think over one off season he’ll figure out how to do that?
I’m not gonna crown him early like some others are doing. Until he gets us to the playoffs & has playoff wins, I’m not satisfied.
@@boogie8558 I’m not even thinking that as a possibility. I want to see someone who actually flashes high end top tier qb talent and that’s not ao
Crown him? I don’t know anyone that’s doing that. I feel like I’m his biggest supporter and I’m expecting to throw a few more than 20TDs. Crown him is way down the line. We just want competency right now. With these weapons he should make huge improvements this season.
People seem to forget he was a rookie last year with not real OTA with first team

He looks like Tom Brady in the pocket. Not afraid to take a hit, let’s the routes progress…
He is nothing like Tom in the pocket lmao, thats hilarious.
You never know!
@adonisguy3243 yes anyone that watched football know he looks nothing like Brady in the pocket
If by that you mean a pocket QB, 💯 %. He needs to improve his awareness and get better at decision making. He has the arm and decent aim to be a starter.
@@Mammatried6978 yes he does.
I was at a Raider game last year and I saw how good he was 0 points. I was really impressed! The autumn wind bags blow hard this year.
Day one of him taking a snap with the Raiders I have believed in him and think he will only get better. Love the breakdown in this video and agree…he is a sleeper!
Defensive ends are too big and fast nowadays too just sit in the pocket. If Aiden can develop an elusive aspect to his game and extend plays with his legs, he will be fine. We shall see.
@@idmemo3942 how long has he been playing qb? He hasn’t learned that skill set so far what makes you think at 26 he will?
I stand with Aidan O
He's great and has an awesome future, ahead of him! AOC Baby
Idk why, but I've had a good feeling about this kid since before he was drafted.. he might just be the guy

Yeah right sure he’s wonderful. Just like last year you said. Jimmy G has been a winner where ever he goes

They start this guy Instead of minshew you can kiss the season goodbye
How many 4th round rookie QBs get thrown into starting during a fired coach scenario, still make a playoff run, put up 60 points in a game against one division rival, then beat the great Kermit Mahomes on Christmas at HOME... I'm all in, and I'm happy that, God forbid, if aiden gets hurt or isn't quite ready, we have my man Minshew ready to rock. SB this year, boys ☠️
Anyone that is making judgements before game 4 with this new system is just clowning us.
I think the fact that both QBs have struggled means that it’s likely outside factors that are causing issues.
Week 4 til now he’s a different player?. He went 3 straight qtrs without completing a pass in the chiefs game. These clowns need to stop making videos or atleast do your research
