Clausen stopped listening to coaches

[spartan_pantherfan]

in the end this does not matter.

It is pretty obvious that we are going QB, Newton most likely or Gabbert, either way Clausen has his chance to prove himself ( if we have a season ) during camps. He either steps up or is replaced, plain and simple.

I find this kind of funny if Jimmy did that. Fox: Run a draw for this 3rd & 15, Clausen: Hell no! lol. I have to admit, I like the kid eventhough he had a bad rookie year. This kid might be better than what we saw, which really wouldn't take much. This QB competition this year will be very interesting and to me, this will show a lot about who we will finally go with.

Yay so now on 3rd and 15 we can draw with the QB instead of the running back .. if we wanted an average QB who can run why wouldn't we just get The Golden Calf of Bristol ?

Definitely not a good sign. Despite how terrible Rip was, there's a pecking order that needs to be respected on a football team just like there is in any team

Why so he can try and throw to him while he is being triple covered.

I would personally be thrilled if our tight-end was drawing triple coverage.

you have to excuse some of the other posters here, they have forgotten that you can have more than one receiver running a route on any given play. ;)

I'll make it official now, I want Cam Newton. And I defended Jimmy for the entire season and offseason until now.

1. Clausen is not a leader, he doesn't inspire his teammates, and he has a selfish attitude obviously.

2. Steve Smith will kill him if he starts playing like he did this past year. That interception against the Saints was a horrific read, and he didn't look at any of his WR's

3. Cam Newton is a leader, and most importantly a winner, which Clausen was not in college. Jimmy never felt like he had anything to prove, Cam KNOWS he has something to prove.

4. Cam Newton has good escapability and is a playmaker. Jimmy has never been confused with having those attributes.

5. Cam Newton wants to be Great, while Jimmy is content with being a NFL QB. That is pretty evident.

When Matt Moore started everyone called for Clausen, When Clausen started everyone called for Pike, When Pike got some playing time everyone called for AE. When AE didn't start we settled for St. Pierre and Null.

Could it be, that not just our staff but our entire QB corp SUCKED.

We got rid of one of the SUCKERS in the staff, now lets get rid of the rest in the QB's and lets take a chance for once.

The coaches were telling him to throw the ball deep, but he didn't want to listen.

Well in that case, it was a good thing because when he finally did start listening, every deep ball was picked off.

[Punisher]

Why are we giving Jimmy praise for not listening to coaches while not giving everyone else criticism for listening to the coaches? Damn you Beason and Williams.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Ok sorry back to bashing Clausen for not listening to his coaches.

I mean everyone said they were sorry to see Fox go and they loved him as a coach. Except Jimmy he wanted to kill him.

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

So there.

Do you realize who you're quoting? I mean, I like James and all, but he's no more informed than you or I. And he's "quoting" Gantt without a link, as if Gantt made a tweet or a blog post that Clausen didn't listen to his coaches. And you're grabbing the content from the comments thread at that. What's the functional difference between this source here and finding something PStall said in a thread about Clausen and treating that as God's wisdom?

I think that it may be likely that Clausen chose not to listen to Scherer regarding some mechanics, but I doubt he ignored Davidson or Fox. Or maybe he chose to ignore the coach's advice regarding his injury. Or he might have been out there calling his own plays. There's a ton of context that's lacking from that post which could make it mean many different things. So really, because it can mean almost anything, it doesn't mean anything.

Look, i had read it in a chat back in february; that chat was long since overwritten. It's the only place I could find the quote, so I had to make due. I know Gantt said it, but hey believe what you want.
