By the Stats: Clausen Outplays Brees

Yeah, no he didn't.

I am a Clausen fan, BUT...when are we going to stop qualifying everything (for a Roookie or for his 1st, 2nd... NFL start, etc.)?

Wins are what matter in this league.

Clausen does not yet have control of the team & needs to be living & breathing everything football until he gets it together. He has the talnet, but b/c Moore got the reps in training camp...Clausen needs to devote an unbelievable amount of time to studying. It will help him get the team lined up without having to waste timeouts...that is on Clausen, not the coaches.

Truth is he is a rookie and he improved greatly from his 1st start. QB is a position that takes a while to grasp. It's not like we're making excuses for him playing like crap. He's been pretty solid and he hasn't made any mistakes that aren't related to being a rookie.

In his first two games I think it's cool to qualify his performances. It's not like I'm one of these people throwing out those ridiculous excuses for Jarrett.
