Jon Gruden thinks Terrelle Pryor may be better than Newton

Welcome to Oakland Mr. Pryor

sadly that team fits him. to me though it would be best for him in Washington or Miami because they would give him time to develop. Oakland will likely start him too soon. oh, another thing, Pryor actually does have a great passing arm, it's just his mind that's the issue and not his off the field mind, his football mind, his issue is making decisions and he makes poor ones usually. he runs when he shouldnt or passes when or where he shouldnt.

Dallas is a could be, but i dont think he fits there either. Romo is the starter and he wants to play QB. the best teams for him are teams with a need at QB and WR (if QB doesnt work out), but Dallas is a could be because they were going to attend his workout.

there is an art to being a broadcast journalist that some have mastered. Largely because this art is about as difficult as completing a connect the dot sketch and then coloring it by numbers.

The title of his thread defines yet another example of a completely ambiguous statement that polarizes fan bases to the point of incitement, exaggeration, and amazement. Over and over again your average-minded bystander will get yanked into the mosh pit over a quote this innocent either because he has no idea that he himself is the target of the medias arrows or because he just has knee-jerk homerific reactions to everything that seems like it might diss his team.

It's a very funny thing to witness.

Don't like it don't read it. Simple as that. This post was just open to discussing the topic at hand not your critic of why it was made and how funny homerisms and all that muff cabbage you were spewing.

Oh don't get mad. The sensationalism of the "privately expressed belief" that you are touting as a Gruden "bold statement" needed to be toned down a bit.

These guys aren't all that bright around here. Don't confuse them even more. You'll have dudes crossing swords at dawn over a statement that based on the proof you provided was likely never even said, much less said not in jest.

And don't be embarrassed if you actually got fooled yourself. It happens to he best of us and is the goal of the media industry to make something bigger than it actually is. It's not a matter of whether I like it or not. If I see bullshi+, I think I can call bullshi+.

T Pryor would be the perfect backup to Cam. Their games are pretty similar.

but why would Carolina want to get this guy to backup??? they have Clausen under contract and Anderson. it doesnt make sense. i dont see them putting a bid on Pryor, NOW if they DO play the supplemental draft look for them to put bids on a cornerback and McAdoo, i dont see them putting a bid on Pryor. i think the teams that bid for Pryor are Dallas, Cleveland, Washington, Miami, Seattle and San Francisco.

    • Yards a game works better over a longer period of time as well. Averages always work out over the long run. The smaller the sample size the easier it is to skew. Also opponents matter more when the size is small. Player 1 lights up 2 bad defenses in 4 starts vs Player 2 playing 10 games vs multiple defenses. It hard to make it apples to apples how it currently sits. Remember during Bryce’s little run last year how annoyed you were when people were pulling Bryce’s starts from week 9 on vs the whole season. 
    • Someone else claimed I said EVERY.  Literally in my post breaking it down it gave Bryce TDs per game.   Shough however has the majority in his favor if just looking at starts. whats subjective about comp %, yards, QB ratings and turnovers?  Now I guess the argument one might make off them could be subjective.  But all I’m saying is statistically as a starter he has been better this year overall.  I don’t think Shough is great.  I think he is impressive based on the situation.  2nd rounder stepping in on a bad team.   And he like so many other QBs…..serves as little red flag going off about what we are doing here offensively. 
    • Player A - 2 starts.  200 yards in each start. He averages 200 yards a game.  Player B - 1 start.  Throws for 400 yards.  Comes in another random game and has 1 pass attempt on a Hail Mary to end the game that goes incomplete.   Now given the random game he appeared for a snap, he averages 200 yards a game. Thats why you isolate starts. If you are talking starter vs someone who began as a backup.  Simple made up numbers/situations to illustrate the point.
