Will Clausen really get a chance?

Do you guys think Clausen will actually get a chance to start this season. Will he have a real opportunity in TC?

I'm not sure. I'd like to think he would get a courtesy shot as that's kind of the way it's always been but unless he looks like a pro-bowler I don't see him really getting a shot to compete. He is Fox/Hurney's selection not Rivera's.

I see Moore getting a chance and possibly being the opening day starter and then probably starting a few more games. But it would all depend on Cam's progress.

he could make his own chance but I doubt he will.

Rivera WILL play the guy who is best ready to win games when the season starts.

I agree wholeheartedly. With the lack of reps they have missed by now, I believe Rivera will give practice time to the first QB that impresses him. So it comes down to which QB is going to step up and take the bulls by their horns? And is he even on our roster?

And GOOOOO PANTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately these guys are going to get a week or few weeks of practice at best before the first game whenever that is.

Clausen doesnt make it past the first week of free agency/trading. Not that I think he is bad, because I think he did quite good for what he was given. But to ensure this is Cam Newtons team so he can fully concentrate on leading this team, he can not have a clausen behind him. My guess is Clausen, Deangelo, and Smith will all be traded once the lockout is over.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
