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.

      Perfect example why Zod said they are getting rid of the Tinderbox. 😉 Segmenting which swallow has the best airspeed velocity is what divides us! Bravo Zod.

      Who needs to step up in 2026

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      I've been reading around on different websites about our team and OTAs and minicamps.  There are several members of this team that need to step up.  These are a few of mine.  Please feel free to add to the iist. 1. Bryce Young, Obviously the No. 1 person who needs to step up.  Bryce has been given everything a QB could ask for.  We have a top tier offensive line. Big WRs that can get open and make plays.  A decent running game.   Over tha past couple of years we have really put enough players in position to help him.  He has to be the guy to step up and utitlize his players. 2. Jaelan Phillips, Just because of the massive contract we gave him.  He has to be the leader of the pass rush.  He has to be in double digit sacks or the money isn't worth it.  He has to bring Scourton and the rest of the group to the top. 3. Ejiro Evero, Two years ago he had the statically worst defense in NFL history but was given a reprieve because we focused primarily on the offensive side of the ball for Young.  Last year we improved and we just didn't have enough to stop elite QBs.  This year he has been given just about everything a defensive coordinator could ask for.  IMO he has 4 cornerbacks that have impressed this offseason.  He received solid help for Brown with Hunter and Phillips. Our weakest area, LB Corp, we signed Lloyd to solidify that group.  With all the tools he has this season he needs to show why we kept him after 2024.  IMO he has no excuses this season.   Lastly, IMO is X. Legette. He has shown sporadic flashes but nothing to justify being a first round pick.  The WR room is stacked this season and any number of players from that group could make the 53 man roster. XL is going to have to show out this preseason.  At minimum, he performs well enough to possibly get a trade to a team needing a WR.  I think with T-Mac, Coker and Brazzell in the mix for the top three position we would be wise to utilize the remaining WR spots for players with a larger ceiling than XL.  Training Camp and Preseason will sort them out and IMO if XL doesn't flat out show out he's done in Carolina.  Feel free to add to this list.  And of course, your opinion.

      I'm all for it. Improved moderation sounds great. A number of thoughtful dudes and I believe 100% of the thoughtful women that used to post here have been gone for years.
