The Las Vegas Raiders had a quarterback problem coming into the year. They still have one as far as I'm concerned.
They came into the season with a quarterback battle. And, you know what they say -- if there's a battle, you have no QB. That's evident here. It was in the offseason, and it still is.
The Raiders went with Minshew and have all season, besides a handful of snaps by O'Connell before Week 5. Well, after an amazing start by Minshew against the Denver Broncos, and a great game against the Cleveland Browns, he was benched, again. They put in Aidan O'Connell after a Minsher pick-six by Patrick Surtain and another interception by Riley Moss.
Then O'Connell comes in and throws an interception to Patrick Surtain, giving him his second one of the game for the Broncos.
Pulling Minshew does not help their quarterback issue, especially when you see O'Connell go and do the same exact things. In fact, it makes it worse.
Now, you are messing up the confidence of both guys. There's no consistency, as this is the second time this has happened this season. How O'Connell finishes out the game vs. Denver will tell who the starter will be next week against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
