"What makes you think you are ready?"

"Coach Weiss says so"

Really? Good lord.

Then he throws his receiver under the bus in the next question.

Also, watch his body language. He looks like a highschooler interviewing for a mcdonalds job. Can't sit still, poor posture, figity.

This guy has all the physical tools, but has a ton of growing up to do. A senior year would have done him well me thinks.

I was under the same impression during the original thread that it got brought up. I just really didn't like how he carried himself in the interview.

If he puts up the types of numbers he did his junior year at ND then for all I care he could have pooped in his hand, thrown his feces at gruden, then asked him to watch a marathon of Twilight movies and gotten matching tattoos of a nude, reclining Delhomme in a silk robe on their chests.

does he have a party reputation? Could be Kerry Collins v.2.0

Comes across as the anti-The Golden Calf of Bristol(and anti-Delhomme) almost

have to give him a chance though, could turn out to be a steal.

Anything anti-The Golden Calf of Bristol is ok in my book.

"I am a virgin and I dont believe in abortion. I am a warrior of God and I have a huge head."

I am a Christian myself, but damn The Golden Calf of Bristol. Chill out, live a little. You stuck up douche. Denver screwed themselves royally on the pick. Glad they passed on Clausen in hinds sight though.

I love how a persons beliefs are reason to attack them.

When Gruden started to tell him where he was screwing up he picked up a pen and took notes.

He's still a kid, and he's going to do and say stupid things. All of them do, even Manning (who's NEVER thrown a teammate under the bus, right?). But if he can learn and grow, and if he turns into the gym rat and film geek he suggested he wants to be, then we got a steal.

Moore is going to play well in 2010, I believe that. And maybe in 2011 as well. I sure hope he does. And I hope Clausen develops at the same time. Getting great play out of the QB position along with possible picks for the other guy someday would be great for all of us.

I'm really excited by the possibility. :)

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
