The Panthers Film Proves The Raiders Must Bench Gardner Minshew 

As a retired Qb coach and OC, anyone that has watched the All 22, and still says Minshew should be the starter than I question your sanity. Your first play u went over in this video is versus a single high safety. U will notice the safety is leveraged to the left hash. It’s a pre snap read to look off the safety and keep him leveraged with a look to the out to Adams. Then u pull the trigger on the Y seam route to Mayer. It’s an old West Coast concept. Minshew displays over and over bad eyes and footwork. This last game he was really bad. Sadly, a lot of Raider fans and more unfortunately AP really thinks Minshew isn’t playing bad…..it’s beyond concerning how blind some are 🤦🏻‍♂️

Exactly Aiden O'Connell came in at a disadvantage because they know they're not going to run the ball. So they're just going to sit back and wait for the pass. And he still did good. I fear that Aiden will start when the season is pretty much over

If Gardner shits the bed in the first half I see them starting O'Connell the second half of the browns game

Minshew is here for a paycheck

It's time to start AOC

I also watched the all 22, minshew has guys wide open that he either cant see or doesn't keep his eyes downfield to make a confident throw to. I also thought AOC should have been the day 1 starter but now its the obvious decision to bench GM and give AOC the reigns. I can live with him with him getting intercepted on a good defensive play but Gardner sacks himself and makes bad throws and costly mistakes.

Gardeners foot work when he’s dropping back, and then, stepping up again is terrible. His feet are all over the place, and he’s in no positions with his foot work to deliver a pass to any other receiver than the first read.

The real question is why is it taking coaches and coordinators whom are professionally paid so long to see the obvious? “bench minshew”

Bro anyone and I mean ANYONE who’s actually been screaming for AOC to start is because WE know that he throws with anticipation, which legit NFL QBs need to have. Mobile QBs tend to go through a read or 3 and then attempt to run. I’ve been screaming that Pierce fucked up with the starter. I’ve seen the same thing in real time, yelling at the damn TV that Minshit needs to stay with a receiver longer than a bat of an eye.

Thanks for the shout. I dig your work. Gardner is a good back up because he plays great when the defensive game plan isn’t designed to shut him down, but the book is out on him. Make him play from the pocket and he’ll beat himself. Judging off the initial announcement of Gardner starting, what I heard was that Aidan just wasn’t ready. Knowing that pierce doesn’t mince words, it sounded like he was giving Aidan another month to learn the system. Gardner has much more experience learning nfl offenses. I believe Gardner was made the starter as a placeholder until Aidan is ready. After all, pierce said both quarterbacks would play. He wouldn’t say that if Gardner was the unquestioned starter. The season isn’t over, it’s just getting started

That was Mayer that got open on the first play.

Love the brake down my boy keep up the great work‼️🏴‍☠️☠️

I predicted O'Connell would be in by week five. I really hope I'm a week off...

All I know is KC can not repeat again, anybody but them

You are spot on! I agree 100% with your tape review. Keep it up. Much respect.

I appreciate the support on my comment. Even though the footage released the next day, i was frustrated after that loss, after watching back the plays. So my comment could have been more concise, but I was just speaking my mind so it was drawn out lol.

Bro if our coach cant see this! Were in trouble!!

Couch GMs and HCs are hilarious. They know better than the NFL staff that sees Minshew and OC EVERYDAY 😂😂😂

First time watching I really like what you’re doing “” I like how you showed us the play by play …great job .🎉🎉

yo great vid dude so cool to see you do film when not many people have access to it!

Your best and most important video ever made. great work.

First play was actually Mayers running wide open, not BB89. But it's still a huge gain if he throws the ball to MM, possibly even a TD.

He's starting Gardner Minshew..... we're F$€KED. . He has happy feet and a noodle arm. . Horrible decision... AOC. HAS TO START

I've been saying this since preseason. Minshew can not see open receivers, but it's Luke Getsy's fault. Look at the film on Minshew, he can never roll right and make a play. 46 minutes 1 TD for Minshew, AOC threw 1 TD in 1 min. Minshew is why we can't score more than 7 points in the 1st half. Gardner Happy feet medicine ball thrower Minshew. 4 turnovers and 3 tds thrown. 👏🏽 alot of people talking abbout Aidan is a statue but we just got lit up by a statue in Andy Dalton 😂

Can’t tell me these coaches don’t see these films. I just don’t see how they can choose minshew over Aidan unless it’s purely money based and not skill based. Aidan is much better. Poor guy got AP the job and AP is doing him dirty. Aidan could be a great player in this league if given the shot.

Great Video 🙏🏼Even rich Gannon spoke about that Gardner gets panic too quick in the pocket!

I’ve never gave up on AOC

Couldn't believe they started Minshew over AOC beginning the season. The Minshew experiment is over and should have never started

Everyone keeps talking about what is minshew ceiling this it . We don't know what AOC ceiling is because we're not playing the better QB TIME IS NOW

thank you for breaking down some tape, most of the "Minshew Mania" cult on RU-vid just blab about how it's not his fault and that Aidan isn't better or in many cases they'll say he's worse.

It's my first time being on your station. Appreciate it. That's definitely some good film work. And I'm watching some of the clips. I was noticing the same thing and but I didn't get to see the whole pitcher from quarterback to receiver. I still believe as well that. AP did not prepare this team for thope to see another one. Of your videos and I'll give you another comment when I see it.Thank you sir

Play #1 was 87 Michael Mayer - good breakdown btw you can see the 87 from the end zone view

The problem isn’t minshew or getsy. The problem is you have a linebacker coach as a head coach. Who didn’t even know andy dalton was starting the game

Mark davis had 15 million reasons why Gardner should start but anyone with eyes and a brain can see AOC gives us the best chance to win

He’s already a veteran reject of many teams. Mortifying minshaw.

Dude Minshew has completed 74% of his passes - top 5 in NFl. He's 6th in passing yards. 2nd most first downs through the air in the NFL. 2nd most passes competed over 20 yards in the NFL. Defense has only got 1 turnover - bottom of the NFL. They have the worst rushing attack in the entire NFL and they are on pace to shatter the worst rushing attack record in NFL history. Anyone can cherry pick plays. Colts had a bad defense last year - gave up the most points in the entire AFC and MInshew was 9-6 with the Colts and they had a poor receiving group. Pittman had a career year and Downs set the Colts rookie record for most receptions by a rookie. You HAVE to be able to run the ball or teams will never respect play action and Minshew thrives in play action. The O LIne is awful. Minshew is on pace to get sacked twice as much as he did last year. Gotta wake up and see the forrest through the trees. MInshew is a good qb but ya gotta protect him and be able to run.

In my humble opinion, AOC would benefit more from a "fixed" o-line than Minshew. Minshew is just too skittish. Shocking, I know..

There was absolutely no time even for AOC , he would’ve been sacked

The eye test tells you go with Aiden he's decisive reads the D's better and slings it he has a better arm go with Aiden Raiders!!

AOC is indeed a better QB. Notice he reads and executes his passes way quicker than Minshew. The defence does not have any time to adjust. Also remember last season. Who pinned the Niners into overtime and almost won the game? You don't pin down the Niners Defence unless you have talent.

I agree absolutely. It is crazy to me that he was not the starter for this year. He will step back and throw down field. God forbid he does make a mistake and fans think he is awful. I think the team plays better around him. We should coach this team.

The people telling you this was Prevent meant they themselves are prevented from any level of intelligence

Thanks for making this video.

If we aren't winning in the first half against Cleveland, Minshew gonna be benchewed

The thing is this. Minshew played better than this last season, so we know he has it in him. Getsy was about this bad last year, too. Justin Fields was terrible last year. Now, Justin Fields is 3-0, and while the Steelers aren't lighting up the stat boards on offense, Fields looks much better this year, than last year. You guys calling for AOC when our problems are much deeper than that are trying to ruin that kid's career. Let Minshew keep starting for now, give Getsy the opportunity to either correct his mistakes (2 games max) or bury himself deeper, then go from there. If our run game improves and Minshew is still shitting the bed, then bench him. If Getsy can't get anything going, then fire him (and Cregg for that matter) and put Scott Turner as OC and Joe Philbin as Oline coach and reevaluate the QB position. We are looking a lot like the Bears this year offensively, so if you choose to put in AOC with that going on, I think you're in for a long season.

Yo!!! Ive been there with you from when they named Minschew the starter. I was f’n stunned. I gave the staff the benefit of the doubt, but now that AP is doubling down on Gardner I’m expecting destruction of the first quarter of the season. AOC is qb savvy with a strong and accurate arm. Our team is falling back into its old ways…

Raiders play well from the underdog/upset position, they don't even show up when they are favored. I'm sorry but that is faux football, fraudulent. Every great player we have had has left in disgust for so long now it is ridiculous. When is the last time we had a great player retire with us with pride?

It's not about prevent defense. Aidan faced a soft defense. A defense was content with giving up short passes. Sure, they blitzed, but they weren't playing the same rules as they were in the first half against Minshew. The biggest issue isn't Minshew or Aidan. We need to fix the run game. You cannot have a successful passing game when the team knows you cannot run. Fix the run game and the rest of the offense will be fine.

No one is saying its prevent defence. But its very soft coverage. Dbs are all playing like 10 yards off the wideouts. Its 36 to 15 the defence clearly isnt playing the same packages they were early in the game

lol… be honest. 85% of the time Carolina had a four man front without another person 6 yards of the ball

We need a petition to change the name to The Coliseum. The Raiders have ALWAYS played in a Coliseum. Until, Vegas, that is. And it's Vegas! They can make it look like the Colosseum in Rome. It'll fit, nicely. RAIDERS PLAY IN A COLISEUM!!! Raiders for life! If you're not a Raiders fan. Don't worry, nobody's perfect. ;-P

Minshew just stands there.

Yes, it is prevent. Just because the front line is putting pressure on doesn’t void out the defenders playing back for prevent. We should know as it was our main defense that helped us lose games regularly for well over a decade.

Minshew is Garropolo 2.0 he will be our backup b4 the end of the game this week,mark my words

I am not so much down on Minshew, as simply seeing AOC as having a higher ceiling. Being more experienced (and mobile) probably gave Minshew an edge in camp and the pre-season, learning a new system, so heading into Game 1 it seemed like the right thing to start him. I expect he has until about halftime against the Browns to validate that decision, or it's back to AOC for the rest of the season. At that point, Getsy will become the one under scrutiny. It's a shame we let Hardegree out the door. Retaining him, at least as QB Coach or Assistant OC (assuming he would have accepted the demotion) would have helped provide continuity, especially for O'Connell.

Minshew is definitely on a short leash . AOC came in to give the offense some energy for a reason

2:46 thats 1000% a pick six waiting to happen, that corner is staring minshew down and already breaking on the ball. Im no Minshew defender, but you need an absolute laser to make that throw outside the numbers, and Ive seen Aidan throw enough ducks to know that hes not getting that ball there on time

I think if we don’t have a successful season, they will announce AOC as the starter going forward, fix the Oline and get an OC that fits his style of play.

Why AP chose Gardner is weird. Apparently Maxx is now making decisions on who is the starting QB. Same ol Raiders. Completely f'd up.

KEEP POUNDING WE WILL GIVE YOU BRYCE YOUNG!!

Great video! I Been saying it all along, AOC has the ability to make any pass with accuracy he just needs a O-Line that can maintain the pocket..💯🏴‍☠️☠️🏴‍☠️☠️🏴‍☠️☠️🏴‍☠️

FAVORITE CHANNEL BRO STRAIGHT FACTS

Great work! You just earned another subscriber. Raaaiiidddeeerrrsss!!!! 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

i feel like the longer they let Aiden get seasoned im good . i believe in him as a good future QB

GM plays NOT TO LOSE instead of TO WIN the game! AOC was our guy last year and should've still been. Smh

I feel like they knew if Aiden started all the minshew mania fanatics would be asking for minshew. Now they can go to Aiden after seeing what minshew has done

I can’t believe the decisions being made by AP. It seems like he’s not running the show, then who is? He said big changes need to be made and the fact that he’s staying with Minshew and Getsy is still employed then what big changes have been made??? Minshew has allowed himself to get sacked (his lack of ability to escape? I thought he was mobile?) 11 times and turned the ball over 5 times and with all the missed passes to open receivers isn’t it obvious enough that he is a bigger part of the problem ?? Why can’t they see they are continuing to do the same things over and over looking for different results. That’s called insanity! The huge mistakes by TT, AP, and Getsy to this point has hurt the team. Starting with not getting a QB in the draft at all especially if they knew Aiden wasn’t the guy is another huge mistake. Then choosing Minshew to start is going to cost us the season. If I didn’t know any better I would say it looks like they’re tanking??? Our season is over if we lose this game.

Im totally agreed what you are saying about Aiden. We need him to start

I'm with you, AOC has a knack regardless of his lack of speed. Minshew has ADHD, and no timing. I'm not as technical as you and some of the commenters. But folks don't see AOC's strengths, anticipation, and accuracy. What a dumb reason to go with Minshew because he is faster. His footwork is ridiculous. Minshew mania is a bad kinda' crazy. I enjoyed watching AOC, as someone else mentioned, how the staff doesn't get it, is weird, like is it on purpose? Are the Raiders just part of a WWE script?

I think you should continue showing these breakdowns until AOC starts just to show these people who keep commenting it’s not Minshew how football works. Every QB in the league misses open receivers but Minshew has a chronic issue with it. Bowers is open on almost every play and Devonte has had numerous one on ones, with Minshew staring him down but refusing to throw to him. Out of all his attempts I’ve seen 2 passes thrown with anticipation….2! That’s not gonna win football games.

IT WAS GARBAGE TIME ..for Aiden they took they foot off the gas they already won smh

I would rather see my QB throw 5 interceptions and prove to us that he sucks, because throwing the ball away or taking a sack is like stealing stats from your skill players. Give DA Meyers Tucker Bowers Zeus Mattison Abdullah and Mayer a chance to put food on their table, for crying out loud!!! There’s nothing noble about throwing the ball out of bounds or taking the sack - it just means you’re a coward or you think you know what’s best for your skill players and they can’t possibly make a play. Lob it up there!! Zip it in there!! Put it where only the receiver can get it. Minshew scared to throw the ball is QB malpractice isn’t he a multi millionaire??? For what?? AOC is a gun slinger and he’s probably gotten wiser watching the last three games from the sideline. If Minshew starts Sunday I predict 5 TD’s in the air or 5 picks, either way his time is running out so might as well give the receivers a chance to earn their keep.

Can’t believe AP is not making the switch to AOC

Thank you for confirming what the real high IQ fans already knew. Minshew is the problem.

AOC may not have the legs but dude can read the defense . No happy feet and can step up to the pocket

Why is our team so dumb? We beat Kansas in Kansas, run up 73 on Bolts . Ok so we bring in the GM we did for 73 and the worst NFL OC the last couple of years and replace our up and coming QB with Animal from the Muppet show

Remember tape don't lie

Tom Telesco brought Minshew in to be the starter I think AOC will get his position back in the following weeks.

AOC should have been the starter and I’m glad people are starting to see it, hopefully it’s not too late, Gardner was supposed to get us out to a “fast start” which doesn’t seem to be happening at 1-2 losing to two teams we very well should have beat .

I always wanted AOC to start but Minshew has the money and media behind him thats why. Still Minshew gets at least 1 more game cause that was a team loss not a Minshew loss. O line needs work no matter what

i dont thik Minshew can see over the linemen a lot of receivers open over the middle he doesnt see them

The coaching staff and front office made a business decision and started Minshew because they overpaid to bring him in and Aiden is on a cheap rookie deal, Talk about business decisions. Minshew didn't do anything in the pre-season to warrant getting the start over Aiden but Aiden didn't grab the bull by the horns either but should have got the nod for helping AP get the damn job. So much for loyalty.

I have a question. How is that the Raiders coaches can't clearly see what is so obvious from this tape? Do you think they're covering their buts because they paid 25 million dollars to a poor backup QB?

Can't wait for Aidan to get the start.

Minshew needs a couple things to happen for him to be successful. He needs a clean pocket and a throwing lane. If he doesn’t get those two things he scrambles, because his height inhibits him from seeing the field clearly. So he always always scrambles to his right and now the whole design of the play has been compromised and now he has to make a play while on the run. Half the time it might work but he’s also done serious damage to the team itself because he’s a turn over machine. Aiden therefore won’t be doing any of those things to hurt his team.

Good stuff I couldn’t agree more

Get Gardner outta there, I'd rather lose with Aiden and see what we got than do this bs

Nailed it. AOC needs to start. Talk about "meat on the bone"

In that first clip you are delusional man. When you pause it the first time the Davante is not open. The DB is in great position sitting on the route. The second pause, the DB gets shook and Davante is open. However, Minshew can't throw the ball there because you fail to mention A'Shawn Robinson, who has some of the longest arms in the NFL is jumping up with his arm up in the pathway of the throw. Also, the LT is getting pushed into the pocket by Clowney which is the reason why Minshew panicked. He still should have gotten it out, and not taken the sack, but that was not in anyway an easy throw to Adams.

Minshew is getting one more game. If Minshew plays like Mad Maxx is gonna eat his first born child, if they don't get some TD's. Then I have no problems with Minshew at QB. End of the day, just Win Baby. Far as evaluating the two QB's. Gardner needs a running back to help run an offense. AOC needs it too but not having a running game doesn't effect AOC the same way it does Minshew.

Agreed. You becoming my favorite RU-vidr. We agree on a lot. Other ones just don’t know what the are seeing

First off great breakdown of the film, Second I agree AOC is a better QB cuz he has more zip on the ball, is able to go through reads and progressions and isn't afraid to push the ball downfield. Lastly, I think the decision to start Minshew is coming from above AP's head by Telesco to justify giving Minshew all that money just to be a back up if AOC starts. Keep up the great content brotha

I'm not doing this anymore. It doesn't matter who is playin QB,this Oline is shit. Both QB's will have good & bad games depending on how the Oline plays. GM has happy feet cuz he doesn't trust his Oline,AOC started the same thing last year.Somebody should lose thier job for not fixing this Oline from last year.Picking JPJ over ZF wtf is going wit my team! We should be bitching up a storm over this Oline instead we are bitching over the QB? 🤬

No need for a prevent, people just want to hate on Aiden.

100% agree. Sorry but don’t see how Minshew can win another single game. I just have a feeling AOC is starting and will beat the Browns. Anyone blaming Getsy is blind. Just like Chargers game there were many opportunities Sunday. Many many many. AOC was always the guy

He is really smart. Cup block and protect. At least the line knows where you are when blocking. Nothing fancy needed to cup block.

Most importantly, the whole team seems to have more energy with Aiden at Quarterback Minshew can’t make those throws to Devante, cause he puts to much air under his throws…all his throws, which leads to a lot of hospital balls and picks FOUR turnovers in three games for Gardner

I said it as soon as the game was over, IT'S AOC SEASON!

Thanks for the breakdown of Aidan in play performance. BEING AN NFL QB TAKES MORE THAN SAYING HIKE AND PASSING THE BALL. You have to think and use subtle movements(6 years in the league he does nothing a veteran should do). Gardner doesn't have the solid fakes on play action, he doesn't look off players, his consistent precision/ strong arm is below average, he doesn't pre snap and his post snap looks too fast & unprepared instead of film study and actual practice. He not fast enough to scramble and he doesn't manipulate the pocket to run thru a gap(he's not fast enough, also), he STILL THROWS OFF HIS TOES AFTER BACKING UP🤬, His eyes leave down field or they get locked on a target, his drop backs are 2.5 steps(He backups 2 feet then does a half back step throw. Aidan has bad pocket manipulation, he's really slow, he's not familiar with top defensive minds when they zone blitz, he has little experience as a real NFL starter to be considered better than Andy Dalton but he just needs more practice. Lastly, his deep ball accuracy is below average and his But Aidan can look off players, he can throw over players(LB)instead of straight line passing like minshew. His arm can reach all parts of the field; out/corner/post/siem routes. Aidan has better footwork and pre snap read and more continuity with Tucker and Adams and Meyers. And his play action fakes are really good for a rookie(he fully extends and hides the ball and doesn't rush the fake) I'm giving Minshew until half time vs browns to get us 2 TDS or he's being replaced for AOC. If he scores at allegiant the next drive. The crowd will roar and feed our team. Aidan will be the starter going forward. RAAAAAAIDERS 🏴‍☠️

Aiden should have been the starter since day 1.
