Antonio Pierce Not Expecting Juggernaut Offense
4 months agoThe Las Vegas Raiders themselves aren't expecting a juggernaut offense with either quarterbacks Gardner Minshew or Aidan O'Connell running the show. "We're probably not going to be, to be honest, a juggernaut offense," head coach Antonio Pierce said. "Would I love to be? Yeah. To sit here and say we're going to score 30 points a game, that's not realistic." Pierce has deemed the QB battle at 50-50 right now, with both Minshew and O'Connell to play one quarter each over the first two preseason games before a winner is announced. Minshew is good when the pocket breaks down, while O'Connell can deliver accurate balls in the pocket. Neither signal-caller will be much more than a low-upside, low-end QB2 in fantasy, and the winner of the battle will likely come down to who takes better care of the football.
