Clausen Has Improved

[Anybodyhome]

It's hilarious how I got torched on this board in 2010 when the Panthers drafted this guy and I was oh so close to selling my PSLs and trying to tell the world he was a bad investment.

Clausen could improve more than any QB in history and still not be a quality starter. Sure, he's better, but he began at such a low level it doesn't matter.

Not sure how you can say Clausen has improved playing against Steeler scrubs. I bet he would look great against a high school or college team too, but in a regular season game.......well, we've seen what that looks like. Heck, we've seen it this preseason.

We honestly only need 2 QBs. I'm pretty sure that we will be fine with just Cam and DA. I hope the coaching staff realizes that. Hopefully somebody more deserving doesn't get cut just to be able to keep clausen.

He looked better but he's still Clausen...

I was with you, I never wanted him and thought he was a joke.

Doesn't matter if we waste a roster spot with a 3rd QB.

Can we find one thats cheaper to do the same thing? My guess is yes. Edwards? jk

Guys, he was going against a D that had dudes that are gonna be out of a damn job 19 hrs from now! Jimmy sucks dick.

Dear God.....are you 12 years old?

I think that his message board has degraded to the point of no return.

I remember the Good Old Days (only 3-4 years ago) when the posters on here were intelligent, informed, and respectable. The days when Zod actually enforced the age limit. Over the past 18 months, it has turned into a Day Care Service. Parent dropping off their idiot children in front of a computer and forcing the rest of us to deal with them.

That is all.

[Jackofalltrades]

I agree MadHatter.

Without reading too much into it, I have to say I was happy to see Jimmy do well. Yeah, he sucked in 2010, and under NO circumstances would I like to see him under center for us (tossing salt over my shoulder, knocking on wood, spitting against ill fate). But the guy has done what was asked of him and been a good teammate for the last two years with never a peep of ill humor or resentment, even though he MUST have been feeling some. If he can slowly climb out of the hole he dug two years ago to have some kind of a career int he NFL, I say good on him.

Whether the improvements in that game could translate into live football or not, Clausen showed some huge strides compared to how he used to play. It wasn't just that he was playing against 3rd stringers or whatever - it was his ball placement and his willingness to go long. He had some terrible throws, yeah, but he also had some real nice ones, including a couple crazy drops that were right on the money. He's probably not worth a roster spot here, but if he lands in the right place with the right staff, I think he has a chance to be at least a good backup for the right kind of offense.

I think that his message board has degraded to the point of no "reruns".

NOOOO not ReRun!!!

[DangerClose]

trade him. he played decent enough to go to a team that needs a back up. get something for him, at least. we dont need a third qb taking up a roster spot. end of the day though, if you cant get anything for him, might as well cut your ties as soon as possible.

Trying to track down our IT lead here in the office. My damn keyboard is skipping about ever 5th to 6th keystroke. Caught most of them, but missed this one.
