Should Clausen start?

ideally, he sits on the bench for 2 years while Matt Moore builds his value. Clausen comes in after proving he's going to be a really solid QB in the future and we get draft picks from Matt Moore...

what I would rather NOT see is Clausen have to come right in and start...

will it happen? well, for the betterment of his development, let's hope not. So now you know the scale to which he starts...

so let's hope: Matt Moore is a solid QB, Clausen sits the bench and learns the game, when he's ready- we can only hope Moore has a lot of trade value and Clausen is THAT GUY....(who's ready to be a great QB)

anything other than this is baseless speculation until we see results from Moore and Clausen.. One thing I'm hesitant on is how much I want to put into preseason results...

So what your saying is even if he looks better in camp, Moore should start anyways?

Or that him looking better= no other choice, so he should start?

Looking good in camp is worlds away from starting an actual pro game.

More than one rookie has been ruined by starting too early (including our own Kerry Collins).

No way I want us going that route.

In a word...no.

Rookie QBs should never start unless you have no other choice.

can't ask for a better situation for a rookie QB to come in and succeed, though. solid run game that carries the ball 500+ times, good go-to guy at WR, incredible o-line. i don't think he should start but i won't be stressing if he does. it's a pretty safe scenario.

kid needs to grow up a little before he's handed the keys but i don't think he'll wreck if they do hand the keys to him.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
