Not feeling sorry for a guy who has managed to make millions as a backup QB in the NFL.

 

He's getting more than vet min?    I like the dude.........I hope he can succeed somewhere........   but wtf would anyone look at what he has produced on the field in either spot duty or in his role as full time starter,  and decide to pay him more than the vet min?

How did he end up with Baltimore anyway? I know he lost that game starting for Chicago in Seattle.. no surprise if Fox booted him though, I'm sure that was a flashback to 2010 that nobody wanted

The Bears started him against the Seahawks and expected a miracle.       Clausen is a short pass thrower that went against a short pass,  swarming defense.......and the outcome was what it was expected to be (expected by nearly everyone).      

 

I wonder if his game against the Seahawks today will spell the end of him,  in Baltimore?

I feel bad for him, and hope he can do something. He isnt great, not good and maybe not even fair...but something needs to be said about his start in the NFL. We threw him into a nearly impossible situation with an O-Line that leaks like a net holds water, a personality like 89 all up in his grill, and a coach who just didnt give a damn as he was on the way out..

 

Not that any of that explains away a lack of talent, but his growth was stunted from the start.

He has made millions over his short career so far....did not say he was making millions per season.

      Panthers' content round up

      By Icege · Posted

      Still working on consuming all of these so I don't have summaries available, but I figured there might be another Huddler or three trying to kill time before tonight's final preseason game.   Panthers Blueprint: Training Camp The in-house produced Blueprint series has given behind-the-scenes look on the field and off. Start the day with Robert Hunt's family, be in the morning meetings, mic'd up players during practice (Jaycee, Rozeboom, Icky, and Bryce), roster evaluations by the staff, and plenty of camp highlights capping off with FanFest.   Processing Blue (Mike Kaye & Alex Zietlow Mike and Alex are back talking about a variety of topics including but not limited to: joint practice + preseason game vs. Houston, Trey Hendrickson trade rumors involving Carolina, training camp awards, draft pick draft, and various thoughts about the team.   Jordan & Jake 706: Opening Day Another in-house Panthers' production, the most recent episode of Jordan and Jake talk about how to properly balance intensity in practice, react to the starters being shutdown for the preseason finale, share their thoughts on the newest Panther QB, and more.   Raw Room - Ep 278 - Gas Pedal (ft. Mike Davis) Assistant special teams' coach Darren Bates' Raw Room podcast has former Panthers' RB Mike Davis on his weekly podcast. I'm about halfway through this one and it's been a lot of fun. The Raw Room guys (DB, his friend Alex Sweets, former Eagles/Chargers OT King Dunlap, and former Atlanta DB Jalen Collins) are hilarious and Mike fits right in. They talk about his football experience coming up, decommitting from Florida and how he decided on South Carolina, and more. Warning: If you're the type of person that is easily distracted by accents, despite XL being on the team, you might have issues with understanding the Memphis dialect. If you don't care about how somebody talks, just what they're talking about, tune in!

      Allen was borderline unplayable in College.  He's an absolute unicorn in terms of his career panning out the way it has.

      It's a step up in competition as well. The gap in athletic skill is narrowed from what was faced at the college level.
