Does anyone trust Fox/Davidson/Scherer w/ Claussen

I know there's a bunch of folks wanting Clausen to start but do you really trust these guys with him. Yes, Ryan and Flaco are examples of rookies succeeding their first year but they are the exception - not the rule.

No doubt Moore looks a bit overwhelmed right now and Clausen is here to take over. I just don't have enough faith the current coaching staff to believe they can develop him properly. After all, look at what Davidson/Scherer did in Cleavland and what Fox has done without Henning/McCoy. Do you really want that team of coaches "developing" Clausen. Does anyone remember Weinke or Carr? Don't think it couldn't happen again.

no, but the staff will be dismantled next year so let's just hope they don't *** him up too bad.
agreed.

he just needs to have time with those players on the field to develop chemistry for down the road. it will help make any adjustments to the offense easier to handle, imo.

i don't see the new offense being much different than this one, though...at least it's still going to be run focused for the foreseeable future. when you have a new QB starting out you do that. it's obviously the this teams greatest strength anyway. fox/davidson being gone doesn't change that.

it would be nice for Clausen to sit and get a year under his belt before we throw him in with live bullets.. especially with the team looking as it has thus far..

but he could use the experience, I guess, with the lockout coming..

there is a side of me that is excited to watch Pickles play...

My concern is, is it really worth the risk? If they do start him and turn him into Weinke 2.0, then we are screwed for a couple of years - regardless of who the next coach is. And for what, maybe a couple of more wins in a throw-away season!

If they do start him, I hope they at least wait until after the bye as that would start him against the 49's and Rams instead of the Bengals and Saints. It would also give the coaches a little extra time to work on the offensive line and receivers.

If I were going to start Clausen, I would wait for Otah to come back and for Dude to move in to RG, if that is what they intend to do. Not fair, but you can't spend 2 QBs waiting for the OL to start producing.

Moore needs stablity--play calling, protection, route running, job security--he has not had this.

As a leader, he should step up, but maybe he senses that this is Clausen's team, and he is only biding time. With the recent veteran turnover, he knows he is not the QB of the future--He knows that they would not pay him good $$ with Clausen ready to perform. I feel sorry for him. His line is inferior (right side), his OC is inferior, his WRs are inferior, and he is expected to get results. NFL doesn't work that way. He is set up to fail, so don't be surprised when that happens. If I were Minnesota or a team like them, I would jump all over him in free agency.

We have a very good group of QBs in the NFC South. Clausen will have to step up for us to keep up.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
