Clausen stopped listening to coaches

Since people always seem to question me when I bring this up, I found a place where it's quoted from his chat.

And this was then supported by Michael Lombardi of the NFL network from a ‘source inside the organization’.

Gantt said exacty “It didn’t help that he (Clausen) stopped listening to the coaches” I asked him to clarify and he said “It’s safe to say he didn’t think they were giving him good instruction”.

Sure, Hurney may have picked Clausen, but Clausen also chose to ignore Hurney’s coaches.

So there.

John Fox's system is basically designed for a fairly average QB to do pretty well.

It is why Jake and Matt Moore have winning records under Fox.

Maybe Jimmy tuning out is why he never improved and regressed. I don't think much of Fox or Davidson......but Clausen flat out stunk. If he quit on the coaches......then it might be no real shock why players keep talking about the qb position so much.

Rip was/is a terrible QB coach! And Davidson? hahahahaha!

Pickles might be smarter than we thought.

Ok lets see, in college he had a guy that is considered one of the better QB coaches/ OC's in the NFL. Then he comes here he has a buttclown that is dumber than most Highschool coaches. Unfortunately for Fox and Davidson he already knew what good coaching looked and sounded like and they weren't it.

I gotta wonder, how many times you think he called his old ball coach up and said 'this is what they are saying' and Weis said 'don't' sweat it, Fox is done in a year ignore their asses'.

The coaches quit on the team before the season started. They knew they would not be here after the season. They didn't care if Clausen got better or not.

But whatever, tired of talking about it, so carry on with the Clasuen hate thread part 1,367,581.

    • Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
