Raiders quarterback battle: Who you picking?

We’re getting close to finding out whether incumbent Aidan O’Connell or free-agent addition Gardner Minshew will be named the starting quarterback of the Las Vegas Raiders.

Las Vegas head coach Antonio Pierce has said its his goal to name a starting quarterback after the team hosts the Dallas Cowboys at Allegiant Stadium on Saturday night (kickoff is at 7 p.m. PT).

While the battle is winding down, the drama is still on high alert. There is real clear leader and the intrigue is high. The battle became more encouraging when both O’Connell and Minshew played well in a 24-23 loss to the Minnesota Vikings after both struggled in training camp.
