Are you worried about Pryor possibly starting wk 1

[Jason_]

The moon is about 4,000 miles wide. It would do more than hit just your neighborhood.

I'm more worried bout 49ers they got greenbay seahawks colts rams texans to start off.

[BPM_Colt]

Nope. Adds another dimension with his mobility, but not worried about it a bit. Hope he does start and if nothing else it could be small prep for Kaep week 3

[Stephen]

The 49ers will play us tougher if they are 0 and 2 when they face us. With greenbay and seattle in seattle that could happen.

Well that's one dimension to worry about... what's next?

[Carlos Danger]

beat me to it... glad I went on to page 2 instead of just reacting...

 

On an unrelated note... remember those MAD fold-ins in the back of the magazine where you'd fold point A to point B and turn a relatively innocuous drawing and message into a funny punch line? I loved those... When I was a kid, I used to imagine that when I grew up, I'd paint fold-ins onto things like accordion closet doors... Turns out I can't draw or paint, but some of those fold-ins were pure genius...

[Carlos Danger]

and no...  I'm not worried... we are gonna go all Cornholio on T.P. and the Raiders...

[CroatianColtsFan21]

no worries..it's going to be like a 5th preseason game, a final rehearsal before the real regular season begins.. i can see colts starters coming out of the game in the 4th quarter..

[OffensivelyPC]

There's nothing tough about prepping for a QB who's only success comes against the Bears 3rd and 4th string talent.  So, to answer the OP's question, the only way I'm worried is if Andrew Luck, the entire starting D, Reggie Wayne, TY Hilton, Vick Ballard, and Ahmad Bradshaw all get into a massive and deadly 16 car pile up on their way to the stadium on Sunday... or maybe if the moon hits my neighborhood

[Franklin County]

Pryor is the one worried. I think he has watched tape of Landry blowing up a few QBs.

[bayone]

Seems like he could be difficult to prep for.

 

I'd be more worried if it was Richard Pryor , his standup jokes would have  our team laughing so hard we couldn't play, just as it did to the sunset strip in  LA.'s heyday

    Me too. We could have a Richard Pryor Fire...   

[bayone]

    Me too. We could have a Richard Pryor Fire...   

 

I remember the incident distinctly, how he recovered was , well a blessing , lets leave it at that

[lollygagger8]

[HeSoColt]

Maybe I am foolish... but I am nervous for EVERY game no matter if WeeMan is the QB.

[Tark The Shark]

I think the Raiders should be worried about DHB. 

 

I can just sense a major game coming for him against his former team.

[Balzer40]

Wow! Thanks for the revelation. Try not to be so literal in the future.

 

 

...Or was this your attempt to try to sound intelligent??? Just asking???

[Le Neon]

He's better then Flynn.

I think Pryor's more likely to give them a spark. In that "any given sunday" sense he makes them more dangerous.

Still, speaking as a long time closet Raider fan, I expect this year's team to be one of the worst in nfl history. Joe Montana wouldn't change that.

[basketballsteve]

Here's how I feel about Pryor starting.

 

Give me a P

Give me a R

Give me a Y

Give me a O

Give me a R

 

What's that spell

 

worst starting QB in week one of the NFL

 

So brother if we can't game plan and beat him it'll be a long season

 

Have faith Pryor will not beat Andrew.

[Dark Superman]

Remember Pryor is playing behind perhaps the worst offensive line in the NFL..

[BPM_Colt]

Well that's one dimension to worry about... what's next?

lol very good point my friend.. I am stumped

[rock8591]

I'm far more concerned about winning the lottery and losing my privacy, than of Pryor, .

[HtownColt]

If McFadden starts running like everybody knows he can, I would be slightly concerned of what Pryor could do, but i wouldn't be worried in terms of losing the game

[Qwiz]

Yeah, it could be the VY/Chris Johnson effect....a quarterback who isn't very good at throwing but can elevate the offense due to having a stud run game and being able to carry the ball himself.

[coltsfanatic24]

Not concerned with Pryor at all he's played well but mostly against 2nd and 3rd stringers. He can run but doesn't read through his progressions well. It Won't matter who's starting for the Raiders because their o-line is so bad, will get 6 or 7 sacks vs them.

he did start the last game of the season last year vs Chargers, completed 47% of his passes but he had 3 TDs(2 pass, 1 rush) 1 int.

not that bad for him getting thrown into the fire for his first start in the NFL. he has made progress since then from looking at his preseason. but again i'm not worried about losing the game but he should show some flashes of things to come. Russell Wilson's first game was pretty similar to Pryor's

[dw49]

Seems like he could be difficult to prep for.

 

 

I am worried a bit about this game as there is no way the Colts don't take the Raiders lightly. Season opener , home against the worst team in the league. That what scares me , not a guy that might not be a legit NFL QB.

[Valpo2004]

No I don't take him as a serious threat in the passing game.  The only scary thing about him is that he can run pretty good.  I one dimensional running team should be easy to defend against.  

[husker61]

I've seen Pryor play in HS a few years back.. He's got the speed but I don't think he has enough tools to make a huge difference..

 

he was so much bigger and faster than everyone else on the field, he dominated games. but because of lack of passing skills he should have chose basketball coming out of hs, and i said that when he was being hyped his senior year of hs. he is a great athlete, but how do you become a top qb when you have passing issues? if he wanted to play football, he should have been a wr.

[jvan1973]

have you seen the raiders oline?

[AllYouNeedIsLuck]

No... he's on the Raiders...

[Qwiz]

have you seen the raiders oline?

Not lately, but I know that in the past when McFadden was healthy he could run over any defense they faced. I'm not sure what state their line is in now or what changes have been made to it though.

Yeah I agree..

[GoodLuck]

Way to underestimate an opponent.

[colts_mp]

a lot of you tell us how that crow tastes

[Le Neon]

Pfft. Who's eating crow after a victory?

[ruf]

The way our D played I would be worried if Tebow played

[Gabriel Alexander Morillo]

well Pryor kicked butt. Singlehandegly kept his team in the game.
