Pike > Clausen

i know most will disagree with me on this but i actually think Pike is a little better than Clausen. i base this from what i have seen from both of these qb's throughout their college careers and video footage.

I don't agree but, time will tell. Just not worth discussing at this time. At least wait until after training camp.

I believe Clausen gets the benefit of the doubt but this is like comparing apples and oranges. Vastly different COLLEGE offensive styles (spread vs pro). I don't think you can make a comparison at this point. Put them behind the same line with the same personell and see what happens

So what team are you a professional scout? Otherwise what credibility do your observations have? At least stats while not perfect are more objective.

Kind of like folks who come here and give their preseason rankings.

Please ignore the voices in your head.......they are BAD.

Pike played in a spread offense and has a TON to learn to try and evolve into an NFL QB. He also has suspect arm strength...something he did not need in Cinn's offensive scheme.

Go back to the mini camp threads. Many who were there said that Pike's passes were not tight...they were wobbbling ducks.

[ClawOn]

Absurd is being generous. Pike is a long, long way from being NFL ready.

Clausen played in a pro-style offense at a bigger program than Pike did. Clausen was considered to be a potential top-10 pick coming into the draft, and Pike would have been lucky to go in the third round. Clausen was picked in the secound round, Pike was picked in the sixth round. You can have your own opinion, but there's a multitude of scouts including our own that obviously like Clausen better. I'll trust their judgement.

give clausen a better Oline and a better run game and an actual defense and you would have seen him do some even more incredible things and probably would have been the #1 pick overall despite the alleged attitude problems.

pike was in a system that all but guaranteed success for whoever was at QB.

check out his numbers and compare them with the guy that replaced him (a redshirted freshman) when he broke his arm and you will see no drop off...in fact you could say that he did better than pike.

sorry....clausen >>> pike.

I disagree, based on what I have seen the last year from both of these QB's and video footage.

[CLTPanther]

Go back and watch Cincy's bowl game.

[RazzleDazzle]

I like Pike but there is no way he's better than Clausen.
