Congratulations Jimmy Clausen

[usmcpanthers]

big improvement, so nice not to have a pic. When was the last game that the panthers did not have an interception? I cant remember the last time. Well two gripes left, and it was stated earlier, urgency, he needs to work on that internal clock, 2nd batted down passes! He needs to slide over to get around tall hands. It much better then air mailing it tho. All will come in time. The oline needs to do something because 3 and 10 repeatedly wont help develop a qb. Also is it me or does Jimmy look better when he scrambles around then in the pocket, more boot legs please.

I agree Clausen showed improvement this week. My only problem was the sack at the end of the game. Rookie QB or not, you need to recognize the pressure and get rid of the ball.

Could of been much worst. Needs to work on his game management skills but no turnovers or huge mistakes makes it a good 2nd start for a rookie QB. Of course it's not like he was throwing the ball all over the place either.

Check the stats...If I'm not mistaken Jimmy set a panther record for the number of different receivers thrown too.

He scanned the field like a vet and got everyone involved...made plenty of mistakes but still a very good second start

[brandon_87]

Only criticism I can give him right now is his sense of urgency... He needs to hurry the f**k up at the line of scrimmage.

that and he needs to realize he has to have a passing lane and cant just try to throw through the D-Line, his low passes cost us

[Kevin Greene]

Clausen had completions to 8 different receivers. Impressive, but I'd guess Beuerlein has done the same.

I think she meant number of throws.

I'm checking on that now, I thought they said on TV that was a new panther record.

Which makes me wonder why some people say he was stairing down his receivers...he was scanning the field very well...especially for a second start

[DawgzLife]

Be nice if we could really assess him, BUT...the freakin O-line is playing so horribly that Clausen is just trying to stay upright!

I think he is doing a pretty good job, but has a long way to go. He needed to throw the ball away instead of getting even further out of FG range & he needs to get in sync with his WRs (that is not his fault, b/c it usually comes from working extensively with the WRs in training camp, but he needs to get it togehter...he missed some easy throws for a NFL QB).

I'm glad to see him progressing, but very ticked that our OC & OL suck so bad that it's hard to tell where Clausen really is.

No, not throws! Completions to different receivers

I wasn't impressed with Clausen today. He doesn't get the ball to Smith, only completed 50% of his passes and he could have easily had two interceptions if it wasn't for Gettis doing a good job (unlike Smith when picks happen in front of him) of breaking up the potential INT and King coming down with a lucky catch.

I'm not gonna sit here and make excuses for the guy. Sam Bradford is on a bad team and he's doing much better as a rookie QB. Clausen did better this game than last and he didn't throw the game away. At this point his a game managing QB. Hopefully he can improve into something more.

[SOJA]

Congratulations Jimmy Clausen you are on the worst team in the league and possibly without your #1 WR now (Smith). Have fun.

But seriously, he looks decent, with some more experience we may have something.

Buffalo is far worse than we are.

First off, all you people hanging on Smitty's nuts...believe it or not, its a good thing we actually use other people...I know its hard for you to understand but it really is!

Secondly, Sam Bradford has a MUCH better O-line giving him time (Right now)

Third, Jimmy would have taken this team to victory today if it wasn't for the same person that put us in position to win it...in other words...this loss is on the TEAM! Jimmy did great for his second start!

Fourth, DJ doesn't catch EVERYTHIING

[monstercat]

Sam Bradford is throwing a bunch of dink and dunk passes, which is exactly what we need to be doing with JC. It's much harder to be efficient when you have to wait 6 seconds for a route to develop downfield.
