Jimmy Clausen

Funny how the only people that thinks Cam had the better outing have avatars of him. Man-lust is blinding them.

Jimmy had ONE legit incompletion last night, that's the one he threw away when nobody was open. Fiametta didn't catch his pass, while high, he got his hands on it. LaFell went out of bounds and even though he caught the ball, it didn't count. That's it folks, every other pass was caught. Jimmy also threw 3 passes 20 yards or beyond. That's in reference to he only threw dump offs all night.

Cam didn't play bad, actually pretty well, but huggers aren't going to admit pickles outplayed THEIR guy. Sad actually.

You don't outplay a guy when you throw a pick 6. I'm sorry your expectations for Quarterbacking are so low.

i honestly dont think Clausen outplayed Newton, but Newton didnt outplay Clausen either in my book, i gave it a draw for now. Each had good moments and bad moments.

So you think one bad play is a body of work? Cool, I'll remember that when Cam blows up for 3 TDs and 300 yards but happens to throw a pick 6 and say 'ah he sucks, after all he did throw a pick 6.'

however, Newton didnt throw a TD which is why i say he didnt outplay Clausen, it was a draw (for now). Anyways, i think they start Newton vs. Miami, see how he does with the starters.

Yeah, Lafell was to busy dropping them. :cam:

But I can agree with that.

Heck, I'm not even saying Jimmy played awesome or that Cam did badly, however after watching the game for like the 3rd time now, Clausen was the more solid QB. He had the one mistake, that's really it.

he also dropped one of Clausen's and gave them a penalty when Clausen QBed, honestly though, like i said, it was a draw. Newton didnt throw an INT, but he didnt throw a TD and Clausen threw a pick 6, but threw a TD and rebounded. it was a draw and now it's Newton's chance with the starters to see how he does, then after that i dont know.

You should take another swing at that.

Lol, I never thought I would see a Clausen v. Cam debate.

He has improved, but some people need to watch some elite QBs and then watch Jimmy and Cam again... Then let me know which one looked better and who has more promise going forward from what they did last night... smh...

No a pick 6 isn't his entire body of work from last night, but it can't be ignored. Part of being a starting QB is minimizing mistakes, especially ones that lead to turnovers and/or points. Jimmy is still failing in that aspect.

If I'm not mistaken, he has as many pick sixes in his career as TDs now. That can't happen. Also, the floater to Fiammetta in the flat could've had him killed. None of Cam's throws did that. So if that's your version of an NFL starting QB, all I can say is WOW.

Nah, I'll stand. :cool:

Cam throws low right? Nope high, therefore he could get someone killed too? So we are talking about hypotheticals now?

Only high throw I remember from last night was to Armanti after he got behind the coverage... Missed a TD by about 6 inches.

Another thing to do with hanging our receivers out to dry is ball velocity.

Ask Smitty why he has a problem with Clausen. If Cam misses it usually isn't on an injured duck.

[CRA]

In all of Jimmy's time in the NFL including preseason play.....has he ever moved the ball as easy as Cam lead the offense in his very first NFL drive? granted it didn't result in a TD but Cam looked very solid behind the starting OL.

That is 2 weeks of work going into that. kid could legit sooner than most give him credit for......I also think Cam's play with the 1s should be distinguished from the 2s.
