These last couple games of the year are simply a time to get him reps. Offensively, the team is not that good and putting in a rookie QB is not going to shake things up, especially at a point in the season where players are looking forward to tee times & not getting injured. And this is a front office decision to get Russell into the games, so he is being pushed along against the plans of the coaching staff.

I think he is a rookie. Why does everyone expect rookies to come out and throw 4tds a game, especially a rookie QB on a team like the Raiders...

you guys are haters, he is a rookie, he is not overrated, he was never going to start this year, and he's lucky he didn't cause it would have been the end of his career as his O line would have set him up to get crushed over and over before he ever had a chance to do anything, he's gonna be better than a lot of suses out there right now, just wait.

How can you judge a Rookie Quarterback who has up to this point got little to none playing time ???? I think any Rookie QB in his situation in the NFL would produce the same results, it is very rare to find one that plays well right away .

He's a great QB just give him so time. He's a rookie and not used to his team yet. And he's not overrated, he was in the SEC. That's the hardest conference in college football.

He should have given his signing bonus to the Notre Dame defense. They made him a number one pick. If I were to bet I would say he's going to be a bust.
