I would give a B- or C+. He's better than Leinart.

i didnt have the biggest expectations from him in this game. but i saw a lot of things i like from him but he does have a lot to work on. bottom line he got us in the end zone 3 times, something we havent done since week 9!!!
when u put it all together it was a solid B

I'd give him a solid B. He made good decisions for the most part, seemed to have control of the huddle, looked poised, extended plays with his feet. He made some poor throws from time to time, and his footwork was sloppy, but at the end of the day he ran the offense and got us a TD on three ossessios which isn't an easy task with the way this offense has looked.

If you can't admit that it was a solid first start for a young QB, with poor play calling an no running game then you have some type of bias.

C+ but I'll tell ya what... Raiders could have gone 4-12 or even sightly better with Pryor starting all season.

B-
One thing I noticed is that his mobility alone did wonders for down and distance, instead of getting sacked under pressure he actually finds a way to get a few yards making 3rd downs more manageable.

If were giving letter grades, I don't see how you cant give him a B considering he had multiple drops by WR, zero running game, poor weather conditions, and pretty lame play calling IMO by Knapp. Did he have bad throws? Absolutely. He also made some bad reads as well but all things considered, I thought his play was a solid B.

The guy had only one week of practice with 1st stringers and played well. Very impressed by his play.

Considering Pryor split half of the 1st team practice reps for most of the week with Leinart, and had to play in such poor weather conditions, I'll give him a B for his 1st start. He missed some throws, but he also made some positive things happen despite the factors that played against him. Hopefully with an improvement at OC, the next time he plays, he'll be in a better situation.

id give him a c+

good
-looked ready and took command of the offense
-made some good passes
-beast in the redzone i think we were perfect in the redzone
-used his mobility to extend plays and drives
-looked like a leader (esp when he separated goodson from spikes)

bad
-those alley opp passes
-off target with some passes
-scoring drought in the 2nd a 3rd qtr

ugly
-gave up the game with
a) not getting out of bounds before the half for a seabass fg
b) the int in the 2nd half

for a rookie playing his first game in 2 years im impressed. i guess he proved that he can compete in the nfl and isnt complete useless trash who never should have been drafted.
