Legendary sports agent gives Fernando Mendoza simple advice after Raiders benching to begin career

Comments

1. Ashen Kite: Steinberg's got some valid points, but benching Mendoza for 'study' sessions with Mahomes and Rodgers? That's just letting experience do all the work
2. Iron Cipher: surprised Steinberg brought up Mahomes and Rodgers, seems like an easy lesson to learn for Mendoza, but wonder if he's buying time until Derek Carr gets hurt
3. Dane: sounds like the typical 'be patient and learn from someone else's mistakes' talk
4. Amir: seems like that's easier said than done when your only experience is playing third string
5. Wraith Sable: I love Steinberg's approach - you're given opportunities to learn from others' successes so many times in life, but we often get impatient and try to go around the 'bench
6. Sofia: Mendoza needs to sit back, learn, and build arm strength for at least 2-3 seasons before he's ready for a starting role. The hype is going to kill
7. Kimava: Mahomes and Rodgers are outliers, Leigh. This kind of thinking is why young QBs like Mendoza get stuck in mediocrity
8. Amir: I'm more curious about why the Raiders decided to bench Mendoza this early - what did they see in his game?
