Worse To Watch: Jimmy Clausen Era or Bryce Young Era?

I remember during the Jimmy Clausen days watching us struggle to even get a single 1st down. I've felt that's the bar for the worst play I've seen.
As time went on I forgot about those days a bit, and almost wondered if I even exaggerated how bad we were.

Then came this Bryce Young led team. I have that same exact feeling I had back then, where even just getting a first down feels like a breath of miraculous fresh air. 3 & Outs are the absolute norm, and we can barely get a play over 6 yards.

So I'm curious does this horrible experience surpass that of Clausen, or even the 1-15 Panthers teams for you yet?

I will also throw in the variable that is our horrible owner Tepper, his name should not go without mention.

Thing about the Jimmy Clausen era is as bad as we were. There was hope at the end of the season. 
New coach, potentially new QB(Even though I remember people wanting to give Clausen another chance). There was hope. 

Right now with Bryce there is no hope. This team is the worst team I have ever seen play in my 27 years as a fan. 

I think the 1-15 team could beat this team.

Bryce is worse because we didn't have our #1 overall pick last year to replace him with a cam newton equivalent like what happened after Clausen failed in 2010.

It's even worse because of what was given up for Bryce + Tepper not admitting his sunk cost so we have to watch Bryce for more than 1 season .

 

Iirc Clausen didn't even play every game his rookie year in 2010.

Clausen was 1-9 as a starting QB. And, remember, he had nobody behind him. Tony Pike, Brian St.Pierre, Armanti Edwards was converted from a college QB, but wasn't ready for the NFL as a QB.

This version of Carolina is simply refusing to put players on the field who give them "the best chance to win." Andy Dalton obviously gives the Panthers a better chance to win.

    • I agree with OP notion, QBs always get credited for game winning drives even if they do minimal. Just last night Caleb got credited for a GE drive when they basically ran the ball the whole drive and only had to go 36 yards.   And there are drives where Bryce could of had a game winning drive if not for a Legette drop vs Philly or a Chubba fumble vs Tampa 
    • You are actually, genuinely comparing Bryce to Jimmy fuging Pickles? Jimmy accounted for 3 touchdowns in his 10 starts in 2010. In Bryce’s 10 games post benching last year, he accounted for 20 touchdowns. Jimmy threw three touchdowns in 2010. Three. Bryce has thrown 10 touchdowns through 6 games. He is currently on track to throw for 3300 yards, 28 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. Wtf are we even talking about anymore. I mean seriously
    • Tepper? The guy that directs the coaches towards goals that he set for them… that guy. He is the one.    I don’t think he ever was going to be expelled from class, they had him come in for garbage time maybe the 2nd week he was benched.  I will say this. People said he wasn’t under pressure the last part of the year when he did better, but he was fighting for his career and that’s pressure. And he saved his career too. I don’t reject him for those kinds of things I reject him for the physical things. I have always brought it down to he has slim margin for error and has to be perfect. People with the tool set have a little fatter margin for error. Why make it harder on yourself? Got nothing to do with hating him.  I am no statistician but game that margin thing out a lot and see how that works.
