No Charlie Weis QBs please...

[Dpantherman]

Im watching Brady Quinn, and this kid sucks. I didn't watch him in college, but i have watched Clausen. he looks good, but im wondering if Clausen = Quinn. thoughts??

[Mr. Scot]

Tom Brady is technically a Charlie Weis QB.

well, so is Brady Quinn....

Clausen is better than Quinn. But just to ease your nerves, Clausen will most likely go in the Top 15. We couldn't get him anyway.

And Claussen could be like either one.

One difference: He is the first Weis QB not to bear the name "Brady".

i wasn't sure, I've seen Clausen, never saw Quinn at ND. I just wonder if hes a system QB. long ball has been in question. but you are right, he wouldnt land to us anyway.

It will definitely be in the back of my head whenever I watch him. Clausen can make all the throws though. Coming out of college, I don't feel like Quinn was as gifted as Clausen is. But I am definitely interested to see how he turns out. Quinn just always seemed like a tool to me...if that counts for anything.

it's not like he grew up in the spread. The Weis system is the exact same we use. So it's not like he has to learn the WCO after playing the run and shoot, or learn the Coryell O after being a read-option/veer/flexbone QB.

[Jangler]

It might be because Quinn is a tool.

Tom Brady is technically a Charlie Weis QB.

good point.

Clausen's the only guy Weis picked. Quinn was picked by someone else. Brady was recruited and picked by someone else.

It's like the difference between Kyle Boller and Aaron Rodgers. Jeff Tedford made Boller look good enough to draft, but he picked Rodgers as his QB and made him into a star. There's definitely a difference between making a senior look good and hand-grooming a guy from start to finish.

he doesn't have good precision

Weis is Cleveland bound anyway, it won't be a surprise to see them working together next year at all and maybe quinn can benefit from that. if not his career is likely fuged
