The number one reason, which is somewhat related to MM success last year there isnt any serious film to study on him. He is a mystery as of now and his pocket presence with his check down trigger finger will shock the bengals allowing our playmakers to move the ball similar to his last drive vs TB. 31-14 Clausen era begins baby, once a team has more film on you things change dramatically and thats when your skills are put on display but as of Sunday a smart savy JC wins his first start. Thank me later everyone

MM had success when not gameplanned for b/c he is gunslinger....he would chuck it downfield.

I worry about Clausen. In this offense, his check down trigger finger worries me.

Oh... but they do have tape on our running game and defense. And they way they have been going, it would take Peyton Manning/Drew Brees-like play to elevate our game.

That being said, #2 is a mystery to our team too. Right now everything is a wildcard. We'll know more by Sunday at ~4PM.

This is true, also nice sig lol

#2 ain't a mystery.....it is called the guy they don't have to worry about. Bengals corners are too good for a rookie to rookie connection to work on them. They will bait them

I'm not ready to jump on board with that either. Clausen's ND play showed him to be a really good checkdown QB, throwing to the flat on slants.

But our playbook doesn't really use these routes. Will Clausen adapt to our playbook, or will they adapt it to Clausen?

If the corners play the deep ball (Panther's coaching), then they'll get burned if Jimmy plays like ND jimmy. If they play the short game, they'll get burned by Fox's chunk-fest.

I think I know the answer, but I'm waiting... and watching...

This is very true JC needs to sling it a little more which he didn't do in preseason but with Smith back and he always gets good separation similar to doughnut thief in ND. That should change we all see Smith usually has two steps on his defender after the jam since he finally gets to play with smitty watch his deep ball look like it did in ND. (accurate) I do think the check downs will help us move the chains ie Williams in space goodson in space equals yac.

      Kind of where I'm at on this also. I think he has the potential to be an all pro caliber guard if he can come back 100%. He's more mauler than quick. Hunt is making 20m per, Moton is making 22m. Moton is a better RT than Icky is a LT so I think the pay comp would probably be about the same there. I don't see Icky as a 28m per season LT. He'll be low 20s and as an elite guard, i think he'd be within a couple mill of that.

      I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.

      I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
