Yep perfect start to the night for TP, a touchdown bomb and Freeman not signing with the Raiders.

Pryor looks like Brady right now

 

[OSU_Buckguy]

that was an absolute perfect drive for pryor.

 

[redguard117]

Yup. Exactly like Brady

 

[Dryden]

8 for 8, 105 yards, 2 TDs passing. Not a bad quarter of work.

I remember some self-important blowhard (no, smartasses, it wasn't me) bloviating to the effect that "Terrelle Pryor isn't a real quarterback, and he never will be."

That still remains to be seen. He had a couple of good games this season. Let's see how he does after a few more games.

Yeah, I'm not arguing that Terrelle is bound for Canton. But he's already had nearly as much success as all the other Buckeye QBs in my lifetime have enjoyed in the NFL.

 

[NFBuck]

Looking really good.

I'd say that particular question is pretty much decided... he's a starting quarterback in the NFL.

I don't hear anyone saying Flynn isn't a real quarterback, or any other backup in the league, and Pryor has more starts than plenty of them.

What remains to be seen is whether he's a GOOD QB... that's a different question entirely.

He is playing well... That was hard for me to type... but he may be a long term guy in Oakland....

Returning to the starting lineup after missing last week’s game due to lingering concussion issues, Terrelle Pryor was terrific in leading the Oakland Raiders to a 27-17 win over the San Diego Chargers on Sunday night.

Pryor completed 18 of 23 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns. For the second straight game, he posted a passer rating over 100 with a 135.7 rating against the Chargers.

Terrelle Pryor changes everything for the Oakland Raiders

OAKLAND -- It was third-and-14 from their own 41-yard line, Mychal Rivera had just been called for offensive pass interference, and the Raiders looked headed for overtime or worse.

If you've watched the Raiders for the past decade and were still awake as Sunday night was nearing Monday morning on the Pacific Coast, the feeling of utter helplessness was unmistakable.

Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers was piling up completions and yardage at an alarming rate. The Raiders defense was giving up yardage in chunks and they were a play away from having Marquette King punt the ball back to the Chargers with a 24-17 lead and just over seven minutes to play.

Then Terrelle Pryor changed everything.

"A lot of times, you look up and think, `Oh, no,' something bad is about to happen,'" Raiders coach Dennis Allen said after a 27-17 win over the Chargers at O.co Coliseum. "Then he gets out of the pocket and creates.''

Pryor has fun, at Chargers' expense
October, 7, 2013
By Paul Gutierrez | ESPN.com

OAKLAND, Calif. -- After a quick beginning, and even more fits and starts, the Oakland Raiders' offense needed a big play from its biggest playmaker.

And on third-and-14, from his own 41-yard line, and with San Diego within a touchdown and riding momentum midway through the fourth quarter, Terrelle Pryor heard the disembodied voice of his offensive coordinator in his helmet as he broke the huddle.

“He’s not going to get it off,” Greg Olson said, noting the dwindling play clock and not exactly filling the raw quarterback with confidence.

No matter. Pryor, it turns out, had enough confidence for Olson, his teammates, the coaching staff and practically the whole sold-out O.co Coliseum for Sunday night’s late start.

“That was hilarious,” Pryor said later. “I actually giggled. He’s crazy.”

Crazy like a fox. Because all Pryor did was roll right -- as he did most of the night -- look downfield and spy Brice Butler ... for the first time all game. Pryor hit Butler for a 20-yard pickup that extended the drive, and four plays later Sebastian Janikowski kicked a 50-yard field goal for the final points in a 27-17 Oakland victory.
