Clausen should start against the Titans...

Not really, but wouldn't this move make sense? I'm in the Matt Moore bandwagon camp, but wouldn't letting Jimmy play with the 'big boys' let us see what (if anything) we have for the season. We already know what Matt can do with the number ones, so give the kid a chance.

Anyone agree?

Point #2: We've heard enough about our ST problems, and I don't want to start a new thread about that, but...

In a situation that matters (for example, fourth quarter, 5:00 left, like against the Bills last year) why don't we have Smith return the punts? I understand why he's not back there for all of them, but why not for the important ones?

And, the making fun of me can begin now.

Once again coming from a Clausen fan I can't stand when people post completely misleading and/or fabricated thread titles. It's attention whoredom at its worst.

That said, Steve Smith would be a good punt returner except that he would be worth the 15 yard penalty for a backup specials teams guy to take out of the game on a fair catch.

Moore is going to be our starter so he needs to get the reps with the ones to get in sync with them. If MM's timing with the receivers was nearly perfect in the first two games I would understand your point some what. That obviously isn't the case though. The More times MM throws to a guy in preseason the less time it takes for him to get on the same page in the regular season.

There are two ways Clausen will start this season:

1. We lock up a first-round-bye by week 14, and the last two games we rest starters.

2. Moore tanks, are 4-6 by week 11, and he suddenly has a mystery injury.

I think you'd have to add a (3) for a bad record after week 5, with week 6 as our bye week.
