Terrelle Pryor says he doesn’t want to turn into Tim Tebow
Terrelle Pryor has put a smile on the Raiders fans faces again. The team beat up on the San Diego Chargers the other night and Pryor has been a surprise. He has looked really good this year. Well when he was asked about his growth, he made sure to say, he did not want to regress like Tim Tebow.
“Tebow looked great, he was throwing the ball great, wasn’t missing anything,” Pryor said per ESPN.com. “Then they said he went to (training) camp, and when he went back, he reverted back to himself because (that’s) when the bullets are flying at you.”
Tebow was cut by the New England Patriots and currently is not on an NFL roster. Pryor said he’s trying to avoid that Tebow-like regression.
“I hope when I get the rushers, people are rushing me, I hope I don’t go back to the old thing,” Pryor said.
I don’t believe that the Raiders will have that problem, the best part of that team is they believe in Reggie McKenzie. The guy is doing a great job with that roster. The smartest thing he could have done was bring back Charles Woodson. Woodson is a very solid player, who is a true leader in the locker room.
As for Tebow, I cannot believe this guy is not on a team yet, he is a great guy but not the greatest quarterback.
