Throwing Him To The Wolves

Recommended Posts

Is throwing Clausen to the wolves so early a good idea? If we had a

great D it might would work. I think that it is a bad idea, See Collins

1995-96, maybe even Chris Winke, we threw his ass under the bus. Look at Big Ben and Sancheze, they have great D. Matt Ryan worked down in ATL, but that poo happens for a franchise once in a blue moon. We are not

going to beat the Bengals, Saints or Bears. 0-5 , Whats that going to

do for Clausen's mind ? What do you think about that ?

Honestly, I don't think its a bad idea. Clausen is going to make mistakes, all rookies do, but he can handle it. At ND he was always under pressure to perform, so its not new to him.

Besides, if having a few bad starts is going to ruin him, then he probably doesn't have the mental toughness to play QB in the NFL anyways, plain and simple.

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
