Charlotte Media Wants Clausen To Fail

The Charlotte media is openly rooting for Jimmy Clausen to fail. I don't know whether this is an anti-Notre Dame thing or what, but I'm sick of it. If Jimmy Clausen can play he should be the opening day starter. I don't care how nice a guy Matt Moore is.

Would this be the same Clausen that on things like NFLN, ESPN etal have said the guy is nothing more than the 3rd QB on this roster?

Cut the BS, the guy isn't ready and odds are will never be anything but a backup in this league.

Rookie QBs start when there is no other option. Matt Moore has won NFL games. Matt Moore is 6-2 as a starter and has looked well in the Carolina offense.

The Charlotte media is just applying standard logic that this season has Moore's name written all over it. The Aaron Rogers path is ultiamtely the one I want our future QB to take if that man is not Moore.

The same NFLN and ESPN that also talk about Clausen competing for a starting job toward the end of this season or as late as the beginning of next year? I haven't read anything either where anybody thinks Clausen will not be at least the second option at QB by seasons end. Hate much?

How can Clausen fail when he won't play a snap this year unless Moore and Cantwell get injured and at that point we'd have Vinny Testeverde back on the team.

Or the Panthers get off to a bad start and the playoffs look out of reach, do you think they will not throw Clausen in there to get him some real reps?

Moore gets injured and is going to miss more then two to three weeks, do you think they will not go with Clausen? I understand if he has to miss a quarter or just a game or two they go with Cantwell. But, not for anything other than short term.

Panthers lock down a playoff spot and the offensive line continues to look bad, do you think for the last two or three games that the Panthers don't give Clausen some time in there as well as Cantwell?

Chances this season that Clausen gets some playing time is far better than the chance he gets none at all.

Charlotte media wants to sell newspapers and ad spots. Clausens productivity does not matter. You sir, are mistaken and drinking some serious ND Kool-Aid.

Love the Avatar though...

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
