End of the "Dalton Scale"?

The problem with him (and with a lot of "talented" QBs) is that the mind may not match the talent. Ryan Leaf is always the first that pops into my mind as an example.

We can agree to disagree on this one, though I think it's more about how we define these tools. Pryor can run really fast, but the guy tends to have a hard time digesting a full playbook, seems to make a single read and then rolls to the right and tucks and runs if his first option isn't open. Ok, you mentioned the mind not matching the talent, and I suppose we agree on that. Pryor just doesn't seem to have enough physical talent to be a "good" QB much less an outstanding one. Perhaps he has a bit of a resurgence here, but the fact that he hasn't caught on with a team that has even the slightest bit of opening for a starting QB sort of shows he might be running out of "Oh, why not?" jobs.

Ahh, minimizing the skill of Terry Bradshaw...about the only thing Bengals and Steelers fans agree to be wrong about!
