Name one player in the game, on the Oakland offense, that you would like for the Saints, Cowboys, or what ever your favorite team to obtain in a trade or free agency?

... Oakland = < Jacksonville ... worst teams in NFL . Oakland = worst o=Line in NFL history ... so what do coaches do ? Blame the QB ? = BS . Pryor is bad too , his "talent" is running all over the place ... will eventually be skull-fricked ... Oakland a joke. nm .

Flynn will be starting again this season. No way will Pryor make it though the season without getting hurt again. After this season, Flynn will get cut and someone will pay him to be a backup. He probably still has 4-5 good yrs left where he can be a decent #2 qb. Nothing wrong with that.

Wow our fanbase will defend Flynn to the grave, the guy just isn't any good. While he didn't have hours in the pocket, he did have enough time to avoid some of the abortions he had back there Sunday.

Who could be shocked by this. I loved MF for what he did and how he carried himself for my university. But I never thought he would sniff the NFL. His abilities are way limited and much more suited for civilian life. Now get out the league and go spend your millions given to you by idiots who can't evaluate talent.

It sucks because JaMarcus Russell has all the talent in the world and squandered it (not sure if he'll ever make it back to playing in the NFL)



So jmarc squandered playing for oakland, but flynn is un lucky because hes at oakland.


pretty evident by their play at LSU and the NFL, that jmarc was the better qb. I like flynn, but hes just not that great. hes on overpaid backup.

"Give him a season to start and Flynn could be just as good as Flacco"

Give me a break. So Flynn could not beat out a rookie, but now he just needs a season to start and he would be better than a Super Bowl winning QB.

I loved Flynn at LSU and he is a great kid, but if you take your blinders off, you will see he is not an NFL starter.

What he meant to say was, "We don't have a line worth it's weight in pea gravel, so our 6'tall pocket passing QB couldn't possibly survive (much less thrive) behind them. It just didn't work out."

Arrogance just makes people seem that much dumber.

Meanwhile, Matt Flynn keeps putting those checks in the bank.

Very proud of Matt for winning the NC with the Tigers but he was a good, not great and certainly not awesome college quarterback. Like redfish99 says, if you want to bash someone then laugh at the folks in Green bay who drafted him, kept him over Brohm, the Seahawks and Raiders who paid him, etc. He is applying to be one of the 32 best quarterbacks IN THE WORLD and at any time the bottom third of that list is criticized by fans who want them replaced so at any time there are maybe 20 "good" NFL quarterbacks. Matt fits in that box with David Carr, Joey Harrington, Kevin Kolb, Matt Cassel, etc. that can stand in there and deliver when they have high talent surrounding them (see Green Bay game)but can't elevate a team by their own abilities. Flipping amazing that he started one year in college and even made an NFL roster (for several years now). Stop and remember how many "great" quarterbacks, including Heisman trophy winners, get cut in their first training camp and never run out onto an NFL field.

"It is what it is. It didn't work out


Pryor gets multiple loses and its all good.

Flynn leads team to one loss and all done.

Racists.
