So if wins matter...

If Kasay hits that FG, Clausen wins.

But he didn't get us into the endzone, and his stats were bad... so... which is it?

Which ever one can be used to crucify Clausen. Jeez, man, get with the program.

i wonder how many of these people screaming luck every other post heve even watched the guy play on a regular basis. do they show stanford nationwide every weekend or something? or do people just buy in to the hype and run with it? who was the last over hyped qb from the pac 10? matt leinart? lol

Stanford has been on VS a couple times this year and I've seen him maybe a half dozen times over the last couple seasons.

I'm more impressed with his team than him to be honest, but he certainly looks great. While a lot of people are labeling him as a "sure fire can't miss probowl QB", that is premature... but he does look good.

So did Clausen last year, though.

meh...only big argument is has/will clausen do enough to warrant us not drafting luck.

In my mind, you draft Luck regardless of Jimmy Clausen, if you have the opportunity.

Didn't that leinhart guy win national championship? He had a great WR named Jarret didn't he?

[davos]

Why do you think he is regressing?

I think his last two starts have easily been his best of the season. This last game was good enough to get us a win but we just didn't pull it through. He has some issues, but he has dealt with many of them, including the fumbling issues and tipped balls... Now we just need to get him some protection to see what he can do with his feet under him!

No doubt he stopped fumbling snaps and throwing higher, but those are some of the most basic fundamentals of playing QB in the league. I just don't think he realizes yet or will be taught here how he not only has to lead receivers, but they won't necessarily look open from the pocket...thus Fox/Davidson's piss poor play designs are affecting how he reads the field and his overall mental state. Today showed he could become a worse version of David Carr...dump downs for higher %, running backwards, and these things are detrimental to QBs. Just my opinion.

meh, comparing USC to Stanford is a bit unfair

he does try to lead receivers. Last week he tried to lead Rosario, and Rosario at down on a route, leading to an incompletion.

I do think he flees backwards too often, but I can't blame him when a second after the snap there are people surrounding him, often bearing straight in at him...

I hope you're wrong about Carring him, I think it is too early to say that. We'll see how he picks it up; the last two weeks haven't been nearly that bad for him... not for this offense, anyway.

If Harbaugh can translate that coaching to the pros I'd be delighted to name him our next HC. That's a very, very well coached team. Luck is a beneficiary of that - he just happens to also be rather good (though I don't think he's anywhere near as good as people make out).

[rayzor]

the last hyped QB from the pac 10 is leading the jets right now.

Yeah, I agree. Reading some of this board's "scouts," drafting Luck alone guarantees at least a decade worth of Superbowls... and that's being conservative.
