I have no chance of remembering what the raiders QBs names were in the 90s....but I guess it was Rich Gannon's back up...or his back ups back up.... anyway...dude some how ended up in a game with Jerry Rice...dude fed Jerry like 6 consecutive throws...each a worse throw and the throw before it. Jerry was in no way shape or form open for most of them...but he kept coming down with the ball.
Whoever the dude was, he likely knew he had no business being in the NFL, but he knew Jerry Rice was Jerry Rice.... The QB didn't need to understand defenses or what the playbook was....Jerry was his best chance to move the offense.
Not for the same reasons, but I expect if Bell plays next week...that dude is going to get targeted early and often by whatever QB is stuck out there with the 3rd and 4th string.
If Bell has a bad series....we should pay attention, it might not be his fault, nor-exactly what the play called for....dude might be getting balls heading his way outside of what the coverage would dictate because of the desperation of the QBs.
He runs really good routes, I think he should be able to get open relatively easy against 3rd stringers - so I agree, going to cram the ball to him. Hahah
im pretty sure Lance will play after the starters and then darnold will play in the second half. I think bell will play with both a lot, once the starters are out. I expect a big game from him again.
i just hope he doesn't have a third bonehead drop that results in a turnover. Lol honestly, terrible luck on his part. It's one thing to drop a pass but both be intercepted? Terrible luck. Hahah
