“I don’t know,” replied Clausen when asked whether he should’ve been thrown into the fire. “…Some guys have that time to be able to sit back and watch, and I got to do that for the first three quarters of the game in the first game of the season and I got thrown in there on the last series because Matt Moore went down.”

Oviously he was not....

You guys kill me. Everyone trying to talk poo about Clausen. First of all if he is gone next year then you should all be poo talking Hurney and management, not Fox and Clausen. They are the ones who picked up a bust with a second rounder. Then you all say Newton is worth the risk, you wouldn't have said Clausen is worth the risk with basically the last second round pick? I think Clausen would be waaaay more justified than Newton as #1 overall. Next, half you guys you guys talk about how Newton should sit and learn or Newton should start. The huddle can't handle mistakes, rookies QBs need time and need an owner and management that is focused on winning.

None of this was given to him last year and he comes out and says "it is only going to make me better", yet the title is Clausen "I don't know", applying everyone has already written him off and given up. Perfect kindle for yet another Clausen poo storm. What a young, misguided fanbase. Yea let's trade a QB cause he was slightly less than mediocre one year after being thrown to the wolves, trade trade trade. He is cheap, he has potential (like it or not), it would be stupid to trade him.

Clausen says he doesn't know if more time would have helped him, because it never happened. He could of said, "yep, this team just threw me in there and that was bullpoo". Clausen isn't worth poo, he isn't going anywhere. All I am saying is if Clausen turns out to be playing for us next year one way or another, he should be supported by the fans.

I find it kind of interesting that a kid who tweets, has a web page, and blogs etc, has not had a sit down interview that has been published in any of the NC newspapers.

He is the quietest QB I have ever heard. Odd considering the statements from various places about how cocky he is. He seems pretty meek to me.

I think that is part of the problem with the fan base. The fans don't know this kid. They see the disaster on the field. They see his body language. They see no fire.

Those things from an image perspective, combined with bad results, makes it extremely hard to embrace Jimmy as a potential leader. There are a lot of successful QBs who don't talk, but, there is no doubt from their body language that they are in charge.

I would have given almost anything to see him get angry, with himself, with someone else, with poo-head Fox/Davidson, something, anything, to demostrate he gave a damn aboiut what was happening around him.

I think this as much as anything, will cause a change.

    • 100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.  
    • It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
    • In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
