ALAMEDA, Calif. -- The Indianapolis Colts come into the season opener with a proven quarterback, a playoff pedigree and the home-field advantage over the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders are hoping the element of surprise will be enough to overcome those hurdles. Coach Dennis Allen is refusing to name his starting quarterback for "competitive" reasons even though all signs point to Terrelle Pryor getting that call over Matt Flynn on Sunday in Indianapolis. "Im preparing like I always do, like I will be the starter," Pryor said Wednesday. The San Francisco Chronicle and NFL.com reported Monday that Pryor would start. He has opened practice with the first-team offence this week and has been getting plenty of work with the starters in a clear sign that he will be the No. 1 quarterback Sunday. But Allen wants to wait until Sunday to make an official announcement in hopes of making the Colts prepare for two possible quarterbacks. "Whether it gives us an advantage or not, well see," Allen said. "Were preparing to play the Indianapolis Colts. Well have a plan in place and our guys are ready to go." Indianapolis is set at quarterback with Andrew Luck ready to begin his second season under centre. Colts coach Chuck Pagano said he has had to prepare to face two quarterbacks before and acknowledges it is easier when a defence is able to spend the week focusing on just one. "You deal with it and you get the plays in that you feel like youre going to see," he said on a conference call. "We know that both guys are capable and we know both guys can beat you. Well do our due diligence throughout the week in preparation for the game and prepare to face whoever lines up under centre." Flynn was brought in during the off-season to be the starter after Oakland dealt a 2014 fifth-round pick and a conditional 2015 pick to Seattle. The Raiders also reworked Flynns contract, giving him $6.5 million guaranteed. The Seahawks had targeted Flynn to be their starter the previous season when they gave him a $26 million contract based mostly on two strong starts in Green Bay, but he was beaten out for the job by rookie Russell Wilson and was deemed expendable. Flynn opened training camp getting almost all the work with the first-team offence but he struggled in the preseason games. In 13 drives, Flynn committed three turnovers and led the Raiders to just two scores. He was also sacked seven times and struggled to get the ball downfield with more than two-thirds of his passes travelling less than 10 yards. Flynn sat out the last week of the exhibition season with a sore right elbow but has been back at practice this week and Allen said the elbow is not a factor. Pryor has been much more effective this preseason, albeit playing more of his time against second-team defenders than Flynn did as the starter the first three games. The Raiders scored 32 points on Pryors 14 drives as his scrambling ability and athleticism in the read-option gave the Raiders struggling offence a needed added dimension. "Its hard to stop a guy that has a mind of getting better every day," Pryor said. "People keep hearing me say that and I dont know if they take me serious. Im serious." Pryor has just one career start and has thrown only 30 passes in his first two seasons in the NFL. But he accounted for three touchdowns in the season finale against San Diego and is a much more polished passer than he was when he came out of Ohio State two years ago. "I see a little more confidence in him throwing it," said Raiders cornerback Chimdi Chekwa, a teammate of Pryors on the Buckeyes. "When he was in college, sometimes hed make great throws and sometimes youd be like, Why did the ball go like that? The difference is hes confident on every play. He makes a read and lets the ball go. Thats the biggest difference." Whoever ends up starting on Sunday will be the eighth different starter in the last 10 season openers for Oakland. Only Jason Campbell and JaMarcus Russell have started two openers since 2004, with the only win coming when Campbell helped beat Denver in 2011. NOTES: LT Menelik Watson tweaked his knee during practice and was limited. If he is unable to play, Khalif Barnes would move over to the right side and newly signed Tony Pashos would start. ... TE David Ausberry did not practice with a shoulder injury. ... K Sebastian Janikowski sat out with an injured right calf but is expected to play Sunday. Air Max 97 Oro Outlet .

Sunday, for the first time, he was able to enjoy it. With the Saskatchewan Roughriders trailing 25-16 after three quarters, quarterback Darian Durant came up with a blast from the past, rushing for 76 of his game-high 97 yards in the final frame to help propel the Riders to a 29-25 comeback win over the B.C. Lions in the CFLs West Division semifinal. The win also advanced Saskatchewan into the Western final for the first time since 2010, where they will face the Calgary Stampeders on Sunday at McMahon Stadium. Chamblin, Saskatchewans second-year head coach, was a defensive coach with Calgary in 2009 and 2010 when Durant ran for 29 and 51 yards, respectively, as the Riders beat the Stamps to advance to back-to-back Grey Cups. "Darian played like the Darian of old, the one that kept me out of a couple championship games," said Chamblin. "Darian stepped up to the plate when we needed him. We were struggling in a couple areas and Darian just stood up and took over." Durants first big run actually came on the final play of the third quarter when he scampered for 15 yards on second-and-nine from the Saskatchewan 50-yard line. Two plays later he did it again, this time going for 35 yards on second-and-10. Two plays after that he threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Weston Dressler for the diminutive slotbacks second score of the game. "I told Coach I thought the quarterback draw was there," said Durant. "We had them pretty much outnumbered in the box. They were playing coverage a little bit and I felt like it was there. So Coach called my number and I was able to make some plays." That drive seemed to ignite the Riders running game which, to that point, had been virtually non-existent. The Lions had outrun Saskatchewan 162 yards to 35 by halftime. The Riders ran six times for 32 yards on their next possession and took their first lead since the first quarter on a 45-yard field goal from Chris Milo. Durant then added rushes of 28 and 13 yards on Saskatchewans final drive of the game and Milo capped the scoring with a 28-yard field goal, his fifth of the game. Hed missed his first one, from 38 yards, by putting it off the right upright before making five straight. "Better that than have them return it 110 yards for a touchdown," said Milo. "Uprights are kind of my best friend ... and enemyy at the same time.dddddddddddd But it is what it is. You just shake it off. And having the confidence of the guys on the sideline, Just get the next one, get the next one, and sure enough I did and we won the game." The Riders couldnt capitalize on strong field position early. On three straight drives they found themselves inside the B.C. 35-yard line but had to settle for six points, wasting a 55-yard circus catch from Taj Smith and a 56-yard kick return by Jock Sanders. Milo provided all Saskatchewans offence until the final three minutes of the half, hitting field goals from 40 and 29 yards while missing off the upright from 38. The miss was his fourth time hitting a post this season. Saskatchewan finally found the end zone after a screen pass from Durant to Kory Sheets turned into a 61-yard gain. Dressler outran J.R. LaRose on the next play for a four-yard TD grab to make it 14-13 B.C. B.C. took a 17-16 lead into halftime on precision 13-of-16 passing from Travis Lulay, who only threw four incompletions in all after the games opening drive. Lulay, making his first start since Sept. 15, completed passes to seven different receivers, including eight throws of 10 yards or more in the first half alone, to set up a pair of touchdown runs from Stefan Logan. Logan hit paydirt from 14 yards to open the second quarter and from two yards to cap an eight-minute drive later in the quarter. Lions kicker Paul McCallum and Milo traded field goals to end the half, Milos third of the game following a 43-yard pass from Durant to Smith that moved the Riders to the B.C. five. Durant was near-perfect as well, despite a couple close-call throws into double coverage, finishing 19-for-23 with 270 yards. He appeared not to be affected by the absence of injured receiver Chris Getzlaf either, connecting four times with Smith who had a game-high 126 yards receiving. Saskatchewan avoided disaster in the third quarter after coming up short on a long third-and-one near midfield when Kory Sheets was tackled short by Adam Bighill. Logan was then held to seven yards on back-to-back runs and the Lions could only manage a single on Paul McCallums 52-yard punt. Logan had been a key piece of the Lions rushing attack that went for 213 yards in the game. Thomas DeMarco scored on a one-yard run to give B.C. a 24-16 lead early in the third quarter. Lulay finished 20-for-26 passing for 211 yards. ' ' '
