Rate the level of pressure on Jimmy C


A Panther In Lousiana

Recommended Posts

Your 1st start as a pro football player in the midst of a "rebuilding year"/"youth movement". Your team sits at 0-2 and desperate for a win against Cin. They bench Moore and give you the keys to ride now. While you are used to pressure in college, everything is totally different now.

Sports stations bicker about starting you so early. Sportsnation voted 71% that starting you now was a good idea. Mel Kiper loves you. The verdict is still out in Charlotte but there are people planning to boo you the moment you mess up.

In your opinion, rate the level of pressure on Jimmy going into this weekend.

i don't think pressure is very high for him. i don't think he'll get pulled all year either regardless. save injury. watching a hyped up rookie is gonna put butts in the seats. i'd like to go just for that reason. i don't expect a win. i'd just like to see him live. thats as "in person". not as in "not die". actually both though the way the Oline has been.

i doubt it will be something foreign to him. he's been dealing with tons of pressure ever since arriving at notre dame. everything he has done has been highly scrutinized. if i didn't know any better, i think he probably enjoys it. everything he has done ash been an effort to get him to the big stage. he's probably more ready to handle it than most others.

Charlotte fans typically are not very educated so the pressure will be there although it shouldn't be. If people start booing I will flip out.

this... lol

and as our WRs go, so will Clausen.. he needs someone open.. maybe Gettis can run streaks down the field every time..

that or our playcalling could HELP him out.. but that's yet to be seen.

    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
    • Bryce youngs first starts for 3 years   51 of 103 49%     153 yards avg 6 ints 2 tds   But this is the year he turns it around
    • His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
