Aidan O'Connell was thrust into a starting role on the Las Vegas Raiders last year. And while he did well, he also didn't necessarily pop off the screen or the stat sheet. In this video, we take a deep dive into AOC's mechanics, accuracy, and ability in the quick game to determine how likely it is he'll start.

@Ruderickle2424 Месяц назад

2 TE Jumbo sets with our new C/RG is going to make our offense a wild one to watch. Extra time to let plays develop, a lot of play action. Security blanket(s) underneath, elite receivers over the top. This is why you build on your strengths. A potentially elite TE paired with a good TE makes everyone better.

@mrmres Месяц назад

He can make all the throws. He just didn’t do it consistently enough last year. This year will be better. The Raiders need to protect him better. They drafted appropriately by stabilizing the IOL with (probably)the best IOL prospect in the draft. I am optimistic.

@raymondwhittenberg3873 19 дней назад

This video was very informative. It had me thinking about another video I had watched recently about Goff from his Rams days, and watching this made me totally understand why I'd heard the Lions liked O'connell as a possible backup before going with their first chose of Hendon Hooker. That being said the notes you said about Aidan's ability as a point guard, play action, and propensity to dip that shoulder where all things that were occurring with Goff as a member of the Rams, lucky he has cleaned up that issue and improved his pocket awareness along with defensive reading and manipulation as a member of the Lions. Which leads me to say I believe O'Connell can have a similar upward trajectory in the same manner if allowed time to learn and see more NFL level opposition. As a neutral fan I am honestly a little excited to see the battle between AOC and Minshew because I honestly like both players.

This is Aidans team. Building around him. Aidan improved as Mayer became a bigger part of the offense. And now he will have Bower. For the minshew fans, answer these two questions. He's been on three teams and has been let go all three times. If he was a starter, why they keep letting him go? Minshew will be making backup money. If you were a starter, would you have taken that backup money or demand starter money. Minshews arm limitations is what going to hurt the offense. He throws lame duck passes. We saw what happened when the deep game wasn't there with Jimmy G.

@hunter4779 Месяц назад

Our OC's system/style isn't going to work with Aiden. So he is already at a disadvantage. I don't dislike Aiden at all. I think in time he might develop into a good player but with this new OC I have serious doubts. Now it might seem like I like this OC but that isn't true at all. I was rather pissed when we from Kliff to Luke. I think Aiden and Minshew are both capable enough to make an offense work. I believe our weakest point is the OC. I hope I am wrong and he is actually amazing and his run in Chicago was a fluke but I doubt it.

@drew_lg2132 Месяц назад

@@hunter4779 Even if AOC can't run, Getsy's offense also includes attacking the middle, play action, timing and rythym. Also he and adams worked together in green bay where he had big numbers and adams praised him. Aoc can fix some things heading into year 2 to make him a slight above average starter and if he can't, minshew isn't a horrible option to start.

@MicDropFacts Месяц назад

What planet are you from kid? Gardner will be paid back up money?😂😂😂 buy a calculator. He's getting 12.5 million a season. That's not backup quarterback money. End of story. Kirk cousins has been on three different teams..... So your argument holds ZERO water. Here's the facts rookie ... Aiden O'Connell cannot read a defense and audible at the line of scrimmage to save his life. Zero mobility. none. Slow as molasses throwing motion. Even slower read progressions.. the slowest read progressions on a Raiders quarterback since JaMarcus Russell. Overthrows wide-open touchdown passes to wide open wide receivers by 10 ft at least once again every game go look at it it's on film. He's 25 years old... he waited till the absolute maximum time to get drafted and still only got drafted in the fourth round. Emotionless. The kid has zero emotion if he throws a pick 6 or a touchdown he still has that same stupid confused dumb I'm not sure where I'm at look on his face. That's not a leader that's not a Raiders quarterback. And on top of all of those factual unarguable atrocious quarterback traits...Aiden O'Connell is a fourth-round draft pick by the worst head coach in NFL history. The only reason the Raiders were winning games at the back end of the season last year is because of the defense. So take some notes go eat dinner and go get some rest you have school in the morning son.... And if this is a girl well then it all just makes perfect sense😂😂😂. If that's the case be quiet and go make me a sandwich. Aidan O'Connell is garbage. 🎤 💧

Rookie season, without an OC can't be glossed over. With the support and show of confidence from his coaches and teammates, he'll be a good QB.

@RealisticRaiderFan Месяц назад

A change of playbook, stability over the off-season with familiar coaches (yes I know getsy is knew, but having some familiar coaches including Pierce will help), being focused on as the starter, and more will help him, as mentioned in the video. Also just more reps will help too, he had a pretty good stretch last year with everything he went through. And the Chiefs game, they had one of, if not the best defense last year, and he managed the game while the defense surprisingly won the game which we haven't had as raider fans in forever lol. The Viking game I'm sure he'll look back at. But I just feel like he needs to be given a full chance before just tossed away, and I feel like this man can be our QB if given that. That's why I like the pick of Bowers as well, give him another security blanket alongside Adams.

@martinrosen7408 Месяц назад

@donfain6608 Месяц назад

Good analysis and illustration, thank you. There is no doubt in my mind that AOC will show significant growth in year 2. He'll be physically stronger, improved fundamentally, and more confident. The situation around him (coaching, playbook, play calling, running game, weapons, etc.) should all improve significantly versus the poor situation he landed in last year. Without AOC showing the promise that he did, its unlikely that AP wins the job. If its a close competition with Minshew, Aiden will get the nod. With all of the chaos around him, statistically, he generally played at Minshew's level last year. Getting QB1 reps through the upcoming camp should accelerate his growth.

@EldricEonar Месяц назад

Keep things stable with AOC, a playbook designed around him and new weapons for him too. I don't know AOC... but given his history and the tenacity he has approached it with to get back up after the knocks... is that he has most likely been working on his game all through the off season. Really want see him start and have a full proper season without the mess before he gets judged.

@lonnychs779 Месяц назад

A good video with some good analysis. I think O'Connell will get better in his second year....the game will start to slow down for him. I also think the oline will be better and having a veteran OC with his own playbook and having the playbook installed through the OTAs and camp will also help the young QB. I would rather the Raiders let O'Connell play and see what they have. While I like Minshew, he has been around long enough there will not be big leaps in what he can deliver. See what the kid can do and if they need to go get a QB in 2025 so be it.

@patrickfouhy9102 Месяц назад

At this point, I'm comfortable with either AOC or Minshew being the starter. It's always better for the program when the younger QB wins the job because there's more of a future there. That being said, Minshew still has a lot of good football in him. Also, let's not forget about the draft. We landed the top TE prospect, who is an absolute unit. We also got a top rated Guard, and a great depth O Lineman who could develop into a starter on this roster. All of that spells good news for either QB we start. Adams, Jakobi, Mayer and Bowers give the QB plenty of options.

@lilbruh7247 Месяц назад

I think AOC definitely has the potential. Idk why people are so easy to give up on him, he was basically thrown into the fire last year. Interim hc, no real oc, and taking over for a benched qb. You can’t expect for a rookie to go right in and just start slinging it. Sure he has things to improve on, but we can’t jump to a conclusion so quickly. Give him time to learn and improve, and I think he can be pretty good.

Where was that accuracy in the KC and Indy games? Slants and other short passes were often way off the mark for drives at a time. In the KC game it was for three quarters that he couldn’t hit a slant. I do like his middle to deep ball. Hopefully he can improve his consistency. I’m excited about Gardner Minshew. We watched him have his way with our defense at the end of last season. He’s a baller for sure. And he came from a Run and Shoot offense in collage, I believe. So he’s used to putting up scores in a hurry if necessary. I guess the knock on him is inconsistency. At least that Broncos RU-vid channel, That’s Good Sports will have to watch Gardner destroy his team. I wish them both well. We can win with these two QBs.
