[@8kigana]

@@TheKilliluminati the Raiders didn't throw him away, he was a bad qb, he's struggled playing qb and wide receiver and eventually was let go by nfl teams. He's physically talented but mentally challenged.

I enjoyed watching Terrell Pryor at my first Raider game with my dad. We saw him throw a couple TD against the Chargers. Then the Raider defense had to show up in the second half cause there was no offensive production in the 2nd. Just win baby.

[@CS10847]

I have been a raiders fan since 2002 the year that they lost the Super Bowl with Rich Gannon. I was only ever excited to watch three QBs play for the Raiders, Derek Carr, Carson Palmer, and Terrelle Pryor. I honest to God was one of those people that after watching that game where he broke the 93 yard touchdown thought that he was going to be a franchise quarterback. Was sad to see him go but I’m glad we got Carr.

[@alanmaxwell5932]

Carr was a bright spot. I remember watching games in the 80s and 90s with my dad and brother, watching guys like Marc Wilson and Jay Schroeder, but i wasnt old enough to pay all that much close attention. I watched a lot more closely during Grudens first run, but the years after were a blur where it just seemed like the qb position was cursed because they were either constantly getting injured or making bonehead decisions, and Pryor was definitely a disappointing situation. It also seemed like they were never able to comeback from behind late in the game. I remember when they drafted Carr however, something just felt different. I had a feeling he would be starting by the end of the season. Despite the challenges he had over the years including some questionable plays at times, he was the first qb that I remember that actually was there practically every game for years, and seemed to be capable of carrying the offense and winning games. I think a lot of people forget how many late game comebacks he was able to pull off. Thats why I can never understand all the hate he gets, because things were so much better during his years than they had been for a very long time. Im not saying I think things will go down the same way or even should with Aidan necessarily, but I got the exact same feeling when they drafted him last year as Carr. I could actually see a scenario where he has a similar career, only hopefully with the team having more success and stability going forward. I guess we'll have to see how things turn out.

[@DarkPhoenix203Ct]

I always wondered what happened to this kid. i had high hopes for him cuz he was great in colleges and really showed some flashes of excellence with us. i just remember i stopped paying attention to the team one season to deal with family issues and next thing you know, hes gone.

Facts

[@michaelayala7247]

Unfortunately, there have been several players who have fallen victim to the Raiders' organization. Carr is a great example. He was able to have some success, but I can't imagine what could have been if he had stability with the coaching staff. I love the team, and hopefully, we learn from our past and don't repeat the same mistakes.

[@JO-uy6zs]

Numerous young mens careers ruined by Garbage Mark Davis. We're doomed until he's gone

[@michaelayala7247]

@JO-uy6zs I might regret saying this later, but I think he's finally learning. Hiring AP was the first move. He also surrounded AP with experienced staff. I know we didn't get a QB in the draft, but I'm also happy they didn't give up a lot to try and get one either. They added to the lines on both sides. It feels a lot different than some of the previous years.

[@JO-uy6zs]

@michaelayala7247 AP does give us hope. I was there with my son when AP and AOC smashed the NYGiants. He can lead men. But after 13 years of pure crap from Garbage Mark I have nearly no hope left. He is too dumb, broke, weak and powerless to compete against 31 billionaires. We're doomed. Go Raiders 🏴‍☠️

[@ovishootswide9599]

Carr was a victim of McDaniels, not the Raiders. His career was going well before that unfortunate hire.

I would totally watch more documentary style vids like this. I think you did a great job, per usual. Man, I wish Pryor had better circumstances

[@frankcooney1205]

Great job, Willie. You breathe life into one of the most forgotten athletes in NFL history. His physical size and abilities were akin to Megatron and Anthony Richardson, who caused such a stir in the 2023 Combine. At 6-41/2, 240 pounds, Pryor ran 40 yards in 4.38 yards. In high school, he was once the top-rated basketball and football player. I followed him from high school to the end of his career. It is a travesty how he was mishandled. It reflects a problem that still exists as we see quarterbacks dropped or traded rather than developed. Thanks.

Pryor always has my respect 🫡 great dude met him at my high school 🏈 camp in Oakland. Him and Wisniewski gave us a speech about time management

[@recklssabndon]

Again: Lifelong Chiefs fan here. Since the 80’s, so a lifer, not a Swiftie - and again, let me say I love your channel. Pryor man… everyone was an idiot with Pryor. Tbh if you did a series of videos specifically about players that every team wronged/used incorrectly/abused/threw away right away… that would be a super sweet series. I mean: you guys actually proved me right that the Chiefs front office fucked Gannon over. My dad and I started a Gannon chant in arrowhead back in 98-99 when we played the Jets. I rooted for him even when he was with you guys. Dude signed my 10th birthday cake in the grocery store because I recognized him and he asked me about the cake only to realize that we had the same birthday (Dec 20). Anyway - he’s one of the lucky ones. At least when he got screwed the third time after the Vikings drafted him - he eventually proved every dumbass wrong. Pryor didn’t get a chance to do that as a QB but he did as an athlete and a WR

[@SeventhSonofASeventhSon77]

They gave up on Pryor too quickly... There were too many problems around him to put much of anything on him. Any QB is going to throw more interceptions when he's trying to make something happen with very little help. Look at Brett Favre. He threw a lot of interceptions in his career with a lot more help than Pryor had and everyone basically ignored it. And when Carr came around, he could have taken on a Taysom Hill kind of role, which would have been pretty unstoppable IMO.

Good story I definitely like Pryor. The guy could definitely play football I just wish they would have tried building around him. He really was a good player I believe and I've been watching football since the '70s. Jamarcus Russell got more chances than lucky charm! Tyrell could definitely play He was above average minimum. When I saw him at dude was insanely fast You really can't tell until you see him live or anybody that is fast for that matter! Definitely one that was lost but we probably never would have gotten DC. Which has a another set of negative circumstances. It's sad that every time we talk about the Raiders in the last 21 years it's always how they were just off in one way or another. Maybe this is the year but my hopes aren't up they're definitely like they usually are. NOT THAT HOPEFUL! We will have to wait and see. Been a fan since '77 why quit now? RN4L🏈🏈🍻

I’m sorry but being a former quarterback I can never understand how anyone can think a qb is bad behind an awful o-line. If you put prime Tom Brady on that Raiders team he would has struggled too.

I do not dispute that Al Davis will always be known as the god of football/global athlete god. I feel that Pryor was just one more young QB swallowed by the meat grinder known as the Raiders not because there wasn't any talent amongst the coaching staff. It was more of a square peg thing between coaches and players and gms, nothing gelled for the organization for TWO DECADES, It speaks to me of the true excellence of the organization as a whole. And that, ladies and gentlemen is why we will always wear the Silver and Black, no matter what. Pryor wasn't at fault for his circumstance doing what any of us would do, feed our family. Al spotted a real winner that day, a future Hall of Famer.This too shall pass. RN4L.
