Yes, Clausen should start the rest of the season...

Matt Moore, for whatever reason, is not cutting it anymore. If it were missed catches, or extreme pressure on him I would be more forgiving. I was on the field today and could see his eyes clearly on every offensive play. On passing downs, they never scanned the field. They lock on one guy, the end. No idea why, I don't remember him doing this last season. He has regressed.

Clausen on the other hand made progressions. In the short amount of time he was in there, the offense had a new feel. They actually started to have a little swagger if only for a moment.

I was a big Moore supporter, but he no longer has my confidence.

Hey Foxy, keep Clausen in there. While your at it, hire a QB coach thats worth a damn to help him out. Is Vinny T looking for work?

Love,

Zod

I think it has to do with being a starter vs a back up. When Moore came in last year it looked like he took it step by step and made his reads. It looked like he was doing a lot of things that QB's are taught to do. He kept his head straight. Now he has the pressure to succeed, to prove he's better than Clausen, to prove he's the guy. As calm as he looks I think his nerves are in shambles. The play calling is definitely not helping but he is also not seeing open WR on the short throws, it looks like he's looking for the big play. I'd give him one more week.

It is clearly a rebuilding year. Its not easy finding anything about the Panthers that is running smoothly other than linebacker play. So why not put Jimmy Jam in there and let him get as much experience as possible this season, so that next season he can come out gun slinging.

I was a huge Moore supporter, but I think he's done... he can't handle the pressure. Our O-line still looked like feces but it looked a little better than last week I guess, so hopefully it looks even better next week. Clausen didn't look flawless, but he's a rookie and he still looked better than Moore did. I think he (Clausen) should start.. at least until December. Then we can let Moore take over again and light it up when we're 0-10 and the games don't matter

    • One thing I didn’t consider is how thin this draft is at quarterback. That’s going to drive up the market for backups and borderline starters like Willis, Jones, and Jameis Winston. Because of that, we’ll most likely be priced out of the market for this tier of backup. 
    • We've already beat the #1 seed twice, why not one more? (Packers and Rams were both #1 seed at the time we played)
    • My determination has come down to this. Based on recent QB history, has Bryce's improvement warranted 50m per season? Lamar is the only original team QB to play on his 5th year. The others took major deals at the end of the 3rd, before or just after the option was signed. Chances are, we're getting asked for the same.  I haven't rooted for Bryce to fail. I've rooted for him to succeed so big that them signing that extension would give me no worries about our future at QB at all. We haven't seen that level of play consistently that this year. We haven't seen it in the past 6 games.  We're about to be at a threshold with Bryce and I worry about what this front office will do. We have a history of bad decision making and Morgan has been part of that group making those decisions. I don't want Carolina in the same boat Arizona and Miami are right now. It has nothing to with being right. It has to do with wanting to win for more than a single season. We've never had back to back winning seasons. Faith in their abilities is not warranted at this point.
