Pretend everyones Angel "Matt Moore" gets hurt early, and Jimmy goes in....

What would your expectations be?

For me- Not much, but it would prove to be some exciting football just because of the unknown.

And for the record I dont wish that to happen, Jimmy needs AT LEAST a year holding a clipboard.

We put a second round pick into a guy that was supposed to be a first-round pick and ran an offense very similar to ours in college. Cantwell is #2 on the depth chart right now because he's been with the Panthers longer than Clausen has, and Fox will initially stick with the veteran. Clausen will be our #2 QB once we go into the season.

Now, if Moore gets hurt, then we'll probably "dumb" down the offense a bit and rely more on the running game. With a stout offensive line and a top-notch running game, we should be able to support Clausen until he gets a firm grasp on our offense and we can open things up some more.

Even with the best rushing attack and best defense in the NFL all the while throwing the ball the least amount of times out of any starting QB, Mark Sanchez still had the typical rookie QB season.

So Clausen would be fun to watch but there would be some games where he just gets mauled. Hopefully he doesn't have to play this season unless he's really the better guy.

And we should all feel confident that what Clausen might give us wouldn't be any worse than what Delhomme did give us last year.

I would want Jimmy to play. Hunter Cant-do-well has been a mediocre college player and a NFL backup for a reason.

You invested a 2nd round pick on a "franchise QB" and it's not like our o-line is awful and he'll be running for his life.

I seriously would expect a good year statistically from him. Not so much a Matt Ryan rookie year but more TD's then Int's and about 2500 yds.

Good question about Hunter Cantwell. What is the fuss? Well, he might be a diamond in the rough. He has better tools than our other QBs. He has spent some time getting used to the offense. Don't take him lightly. His work ethic is phenomenal.

It would not hurt Clausen to spend a year as #3. He needs the perspective. We have the luxury of developing Clausen and not risking Ryan Leaf/Tim Couch/Joey Harrington/Jamarcus Russell/David Carr/ etc. etc. syndrome.

One of Clausen's "problems" is entitlement, so they say. He is so good he has never had to compete for a job. We won't get his best until he does. Cantwell is working his butt off, and Clausen needs to know that he better as well. I am not saying he is not, but I am saying that you don't know what fighting is until you have fought for your life.

      Tmac= Slant boy 25 Renfrow= if 2021 maybe the best for dinkin Hubbard= found his hands in 25 Dowdle= great Rb hands Sanders= better catcher than blocker Horn/Tremay/Tremble/whoever get snaps= more than able to run short quick routes or stand in a spot close to LOS. Coker= should be able to add to the group That's plenty my friend along with two RBs with good hands. I know Dave is not Payton and BY isn't Brejesus. This group can pull off a Chinese copy of it tho......

      Panther fans sound off on Bryce

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      The fact that we're STILL questioning if he should be starting is all that needs to be said.   If this week doesn't turn out well, the boiling point could hit soon.  Don't think 0-3 does it, but it could be soon.  Considering our schedule, it may happen if things fall off the rails.   We have 3 winnable games by week 9.  If we're just sitting 2-7 or 1-8 after the Packers game, that would be near the end point of this situation in its entirety.    It took what, a 1-10 start to can Reich in his first year?  I think a 1-8 start to Bryce in his 3rd would be reasonable to politely end his tenure in Carolina.

      Pressure or no pressure Bryce Young does not have the arm talent to consistently threaten defenses and open up the whole field. We have seen this throughout his 32 career starts. The Jaguars defense in week 1 only blitzed on 20% of Bryce Young's dropbacks and they still imposed their will and forced 3 turnovers from Bryce Young. I can present you information but if you choose to ignore it and what you are seeing with your own two eyes you are beyond help.
