        Geno Smith Is Loving the New Offense

        Raiders QB Geno Smith praised the offensive approach under new OC Chip Kelly.

        What They're Saying

        Here's Smith with some glowing comments (via SI):

        “I got a chance to scout Chip all last year [in college]…. And he’s a champion, man, as you can see,” Smith said. “He took that Ohio State team, and made sure every single guy got the ball. It was almost effortless the way that their offense just flowed. And now that I’m a part of the system, and I’m running the system, it’s the easiest the game has ever been for me, taking a lot of the responsibility off the quarterback, in terms of you don’t have to make these hard reads or super complicated throws, yet there’s answers for everything.

        He continued:

        "We’re getting the ball out of our hands fast, we’re putting the best guys in position to make plays, and every day he’s got a new scheme. There’s a new layer, there’s another answer. To me, it warms my heart knowing that he knows exactly what he’s doing.”

        It's certainly a positive development that Smith is on board with his new OC. But will the pair produce fantasy-friendly numbers?

        Probably not. The early Round 1 selection of Ashton Jeanty suggests this unit will lean on the run. Plus, Kelly's history shows a run-centered approach.

        Smith ultimately slots outside the top-20 of our 2025 QB rankings.
