From the NFC South Blog:

As we look back on the first round of preseason games and think about what’s happened so far in camps, here are five random thoughts on the NFC South.

My initial take on the Carolina quarterbacks was that Matt Moore looked average the other night and Jimmy Clausen looked pretty good. The vibe I’m getting out of Carolina right now is the Panthers think Clausen looked even better than I thought. This might be a little more competitive a situation than originally thought.

Yas is an idiot. Yas is the guy who went on and on and on and on.....telling everyone we didn't want to see Matt Moore replace Jake no matter how bad it was.

All these guys have there own bias when they write. There ain't no QB competition in Carolina. At least not for the starting job heading into the season.

If the Panthers are hyping Clausen even more than most folks thought or might be reasonable at this point, it reinforces the whole idea that they plan to make Clausen the quarterback of the future no matter what Moore does. If Richardson is going down the cheap route and they know 2 things:

1. that they are going to let Moore go at the end of this year anyway

2. Fox is going to be gone too so this is a rebuilding year

Then it makes sense to play Clausen no matter who is the better guy. And you would put him in there no matter who gives you the best chance to win.

If Clausen gets work with the 1s this week you have to consider that they are looking down the road and have already decided who their quarterback will be next year and are grooming him now despite what happens with Moore.

they didn't pay Clausen the type money where he needs to see the field soon. Richardson is only going cheap this year.....after the lockoout does or doesn't occur he will be back to his olds ways. Plus, his new coach and the system he runs will dictate who the QB will be.

Fox is gonna go with the guy who will win games in 2010. His concerns about his future and wallet will make sure of that.

      It's actually interesting you mention Richardson because I've seen it suggested here Bryce will have 500 or more rushing yards and 5-10 rushing touchdowns this year. And if big Anthony Richardson can get hurt carrying the rock what's that tell you about the practicality of thinking Bryce won't?

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
