It seems many Las Vegas Raiders fans have fallen out of love woih Aidan O’Connell.
It can happen quickly.
Remember, two years ago, when he was a rookie, O’Connell had an excellent preseason and fans are behind him.
That has changed. This week, we asked our community members if they wanted O’Connell or rookie, sixth-round draft pick Cam Miller to be the backup to new starter Geno Smith this season?
It wasn’t close. Nearly 60 percent of the voters want Miller, the North Dakota State product, win the No. 2 job.
It’s not surprising. Miller has had his moments in the preseason, while O’Connell has mostly struggled.
We will see how it all plays out and frankly, it wouldn’t be shocking to see the Raiders add another backup in the coming days and weeks even though I do expect to see Miller staying in the program in some form whether it’s as the No. 2, 3 or on practice squad.
