Clausen situation


God

Recommended Posts

It's obvious this is a rebuilding year for us. I for one don't really believe in sitting a rookie QB for "learning" purposes unless your QB is Brett Favre or McNabb. Knowing Matt Moore is on a 1 year contract and would probably be leaving after this season, then why bench Jimmy Clausen? How is he going to learn with no playing time? Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco a long with many more QBs have been successful in playing their first year.

David Carr getting his ass sacked 7 times a game as a rookie is why you don't start them. That guy got shell shocked in Houston and never recovered. Until our Oline shows that they can keep Clausen on his feet, I wouldn't want him in there getting molested every Sunday.

Clausen is use to running for his life anyway still making something positive happen outta nothing. Im not to worried about the Carr/Texans thing happening with him. Not to mention in preseason looked like he had great awareness in the pocket. Tampa is a great first test for our Young QB hope he takes the opportunity an runs with it.

    • generally speaking, going by the original NFL international marketing rights announcement... we would expect to host a Germany home game once every four years.  Doesn't mean we would play internationally only then, just the guarantee home game situation things might have changed since then, if they figure out how to play at more stadiums during a season to expand the number of "home" teams available
    • Munich won't happen. It's a Lions home game in Munich, but we play the Lions at home at BOA Most likely to happen would be Madrid vs the Falcons (although KC has been pushing hard for this one). From a schedule perspective, it would be interesting to have an early November Madrid game (then the bye week), then close out the season at BOA for the 2nd game vs the falcons.  In other words, put the two division games in the 2nd half of the season Paris vs the Saints has long been rumored to be the Browns (but... never say never) We wouldn't play Munich, Melbourne, Mexico City, London, or Rio based on who those announced home teams happen to be  
    • Moton's knees were an issue before last season. He will be 32 before the season starts and gets 14.2M in '26 and 21.5M for '27 (not guaranteed). LT Icky and Rasheed Walker are signed through '26 and Freeling through '30 (option); LG Lewis signed through '28, C Fortner through '26 and Hecht through '29; RG Hunt through '28, RG Moton through '27.  They did a good job shoring up that oline.  We can have a starting oline of: LT Freeiling, LG Lewis, C Hecht, RG Hunt, and RT Moton pretty much locked up through the '27 season (will just take a Moton option to do). That's good because we need to be ready to pull the trigger with next year's QB class.
