Charlotte Media Wants Clausen To Fail

[Varking]

So Garrad should have played bad?? What exactly are you implying? That Moore should play bad this year so he doesn't have a huge drop off? Its better to not have the great year now so that there isn't the huge disappointment in the following year? No one is thinking about next year. I want to win a SB this year and the only way to do that is to make the playoffs with a solid run game and supplemental passing along with a stout defense. Any thing that comes after that is for another day to worry over.

No silly, I am just saying Moore has played well in limited time. Garrard did it for 1 full season. I am saying Moore can be a one season wonder just like Garrard. Stop anointing him.

if there is one thing to know for sure...no matter who is at qb is only going to have to make a few plays a game and limit their mistakes. This will be the case for as long as the philosophy of our team is to run run run the football. The next question i guess...is what happens if the panthers were to change schemes to a more pass heavy offense? Who would everyone want to be the qb then? then again, we don't have that prob and im guilty of stirring the pot.

If the Panthers get off to a bad start, is it because Moore sucks, or for other reasons? Do most teams pull their starting QB when they're out of the playoff contention in order to let the backups get practice (never seen it happen with Raiders, Chiefs, Lions, etc.)?

Cantwell has looked better in camp right now so he'd be the likely candidate to come in for a game or two if Moore was injured. The only way Cantwell would be pulled is if he plays like crap, thus letting Clausen start.

Why would the offensive line "continue to look bad"? But even if they did, why would they take out the QB? When has GB or the Steelers taken their starting QB out when their offensive line looked bad?

Clausen's chance of starting is MUCH lower than his chance of riding the bench.

This is the type if bias the original poster was talking about.

Who in the media has said that Cantwell has looked better than Clausen? Who on the coaching staff has said it? Answer: No one. They've both had good and bad days and the reality is that neither have played a meaningful preseason game. It amazes me how the St. Louis and Denver fans love their rookie quarterbacks yet some of you guys seem to be rooting for Clausen to fail.

Stop anointing someone who's never played a snap in the NFL. And the jokes on you for comparing Jacksonville to Carolina.

The Charlotte media is openly rooting for Jimmy Clausen to fail. I don't know whether this is an anti-Notre Dame thing or what, but I'm sick of it. If Jimmy Clausen can play he should be the opening day starter. I don't care how nice a guy Matt Moore is.

opening day starter? what can he do at a pro level? he hasnt shown he can do poo, where as moore has shown he can play in this league, clausen needs at least 2 years holding a clip board.

Opening day starter? what a fuging moron:seeya:

How can I be rooting for Clausen to fail when he's not going to be playing this year? :confused:

And Cantwell being the better QB is my opinion based on camp reports. He's got the better arm and longer experience. The game on Thursday will solidify or bust that opinion.

BTW, if Clausen starts for us, I hope he plays exceptionally well since we'd have a great QB and that means we will be set offensively to make the playoffs.

I give up on trying to get through to you. I wasn't trying to anoint Clausen, just point out that he will get a start sooner or later. I provided factual evidence to back up my statements and you just spout ignorance. Tools will be tools I guess. 11 qbs in the last 10 years drafted in the second round have started in the NFL, and you think Clausen wont? Jokes on you.

[ChucktownK]

Couldn't help myself. Had to whip this up.

he will more then likely start, but not this year and maybe not next year, post up some factual evidence that the qb's drafted in the second round started their rookie year

I think anybody here who dislikes Clausen is an idiot.

Competition is the absolute best thing you can have at any position in the NFL, and anybody who doesn't like Clausen because he could take Matt's job, likes Matt more than they like the team.

exactly, the clausen haters are scared that he'll eventually take matt moore's job.

[malik]

the funniest thing is these idiots think if matt moore does good panthers will trade him lmao.

[Jangler]

I bet Moore will be gooder this year.
