Official game day thread: Raiders @ Saints 12/29/24

This is what I’ve been curious about. I said from the day they first started him a couple months back, what makes him different from say, a guy like Desmond Ridder? Why is Rattler looked at as this massive upside when what he seems to struggle with are pretty major things for an NFL QB.

Ridder had an all world RB, great offensive line, and weapons all over the field to work with and was bad. He also got 19 starts before the Falcons moved on. I don't know if Rattler is every going to be a quality NFL QB, but he has potential and you could see that in this game.
