    I heard someone say that his elbow was sore, which I've also heard in past years but always seems to be described as a minor injury.

    "Terrelle Pryor might pull off the impossible this season: He could make the Raiders fun to watch. Pryor was far from perfect, but he made several big plays with legs and arm. He actually was the NFL's leading rusher Sunday. We're sure he quieted some of the doubters in his own organization."

    For somebody who has only started one game in the NFL Flynn hasn't done too bad. He has made millions of dollars. He just sold his house in Seattle for $1.3 million dollars and his girlfriend is smoking hot

    Yep, Pryor did extremely well and I think he actually might make for a decent NFL QB. I don't think he can get to the level of Kaepernick, Wilson or RG3 due to his rather poor throwing mechanics, but the dude can run like a deer. And he's big and strong enough to keep from getting injured easily.

    Flynn dropped to 3rd string behind Pryor and rookie Matt McGloin after Sunday's loss. Not sure why they're pinning the loss on him. Dude was sacked 7 times, but still completed 62% of his passes (21/32) for 227, 1 TD and 1 pick. Unless he held onto the ball for too long, which I highly doubt, given the horrid O-line that the Raiders have. Not sure why Flynn even signed with them. I know it was because of his chance to start, but he was never going to succeed with an organization like the Raiders.

    He was traded to the Raiders so I don't think he had a choice as to which team he would play for. The Vikings would have been a good fit for Flynn with their running game with Adrian Peterson and a good O Line.

    That's right. I thought he signed as a free agent, but that was with the Seahawks.
