WR Terrelle Pryor ('10 Rose, '11 Sugar MVP)

[BuckNut65]

You saw some poor footwork once again when the pressure was applied which I was hoping was a thing of the past. He did a great job with his legs but was horrible on his short throws. That is what bothered me because on several occassions he bought himself extra time only to make a poor throw. That being said he did a lot of great things in this game and had some pretty productive numbers with no turnovers which is what you want from your QB.

I think all of us can see the light at the end of the tunnel for TP. He is close..

My wife asked if Pryor was maybe a little under the weather today. He could be seen with hands on knees a lot (even I noticed that) and always seemed to wait for help getting up. He doesn't strike me as the one who'd admit "I was sick" because it might come off as an "excuse" (for what? Winning? lol) but I wonder if he wasn't 100% today. (again, the theory being illness, not some injury)

Pryor looked gassed at the end of the game after his first down run. Wouldn't be shocked if has was a little under the weather.

Well I mean running around for 4 quarters isn't easy guys.... He was honestly probably just tired as hell. He ran over 100 yards against a very fast and physical defense that's not simple (stating the obvious I know).

I don't understand what could account for the discrepancy between TP's ability to hit the deep ball and 20yd over the middle passes but not the 5yd dump offs.

I was flipping back & forth between the games of Ohio State and Michigan and that QB for Michigan seems to be the real deal. I think Denard Robinson had over 500 yards total rushing and passing combined. He seems to be the real thing for Michigan. Yet Pryor did seem gassed for all that he had to do.
At 6 foot 6 and 240 pounds he did damn good for as big as he is. I'm not
making any comparison here but Robinson i think is a bit smaller in size compared to Pryor. And Robinson seems to be the difference maker in Michigans offense right now.

He's been outstanding, no doubt. He's also played two garbage defenses in an offense that revolves totally around him. Of course his numbers are going to be huge. Downside to that is that he's tiny (generously listed at 6'0/190) and he's already been dinged up in both games. He'll come back to earth when he faces a defense with a pulse in a couple weeks and if they think he'll survive the B10 schedule running 25 times a game, they're even dumber than I thought.

He's a great fit for their offense, but give me a choice between him and TP and I don't even have to think about it. Remember the hype around tater last year after the NoD game?

The way Pryor Just shook off 250+ athletes like they were nothing is something that can't be said enough. Any other QB and that doesn't happen. The play where the one DE had a perfect shot at him and he just tossed him aside was amazing. Guys like that don't come around to often.

 

[BuckNut65]

I don't think anyone wants Pryor toting the ball 28 times in a game like they did with Robinson today. I hope Michigan keeps giving Robinson the ball that many times cause he is going to be toast halfway through the season just like Tater Tot was last year.

Even though ESPN is staged and everyone is playing a part (Pro Wrestling style), does anyone else think that Rece Davis and Co. and putting an inside dig at Pryor for his comments from 2008?

Every highlight with Pryor and OSU winning a big game includes the words "Big Stage". These are the exact two words Mark May uttered that kind of set Pryor off in 2008.

Just seeing a pattern with the two words being in every OSU highlight by that crew when describing Pryor's play.

If they're using "Big Stage" as a dig at someone when Pryor and Ohio State win, it would be a shot at May, not TP.

How is that a dig?

He's like a hybrid of Ben Roethlisberger and Vince Young.
