For the second time in three weeks, quarterback Terrelle Pryor served notice in a nationally televised game that the Oakland Raiders will not be a pushover this season.

Pryor completed his first 10 passes for 115 yards and two touchdowns as the Raiders raced out to a 17-0 lead that would ultimately result in a 27-17 victory over the San Diego Chargers in the latest start time in NFL history.

Rivaling Russell Wilson for the toughest quarterback to corral in the pocket, Pryor toyed with Chargers' defenders throughout Sunday's first half. He was composed, kept his eyes downfield, showed great touch on deep balls and continued to burn defenses that allow him to roll out to his right.

Oakland Raiders' Terrelle Pryor taking his place as top-notch NFL passer

ALAMEDA -- Terrelle Pryor is resisting the urge to offer a heaping helping of "I told you so'' to the skeptics who doubted his skill as a passer.

"You've got to respect the progression and respect the people critiquing you, because at the end of the day that's what it's all about -- getting better,'' Pryor said Wednesday as the Raiders got in their first full day of preparation to face the unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs.

For all the attention focused on Pryor's ability to extend plays with his feet, the fact is his passing statistics have him in the realm of the NFL's top quarterbacks.

Pryor's 97.6 passer rating ranks behind Peyton Manning, Tony Romo, Philip Rivers, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and Matt Ryan. His completion percentage of 68.3 trails only Manning (75.8), Rivers (73.7), Romo (71.8), Brees (69.7) and Ryan (69.3).

what did these idiots expect...he was only the number 1 prospect in america as a high school senior...2 BCS bowl game MVP awards...

i think not going to the combine and getting drafted with all the others, and going in the supplemental draft made people forget how great of a prospect he was...but i think most of us buckeye fans knew the raiders got a steal when they selected him...
