Here's why I don't like Clausen right now

Clausen's play's like a p*ssy, When Peppers batted down his pass, Clausen never really even tried to get the ball back. He watched it go up and moved towards it but there was no hustle or aggression in his moves. Watch the "Peppers picks the Panthers" video in the link below and watch around the 26/27 second mark. It doesn't look to me like he's even attempting to go after the tipped ball - that's just either weak or cowardly.

I also think all those fumbles at center are because he's afraid of getting flattened by the linemen. And please don't give me this crap about how it is the O-line's fault. They're not playing as bad as most of you think. Clausen's nerves are just rattled and he runs like a scared rabbit at the first sign of pressure. Hard to protect the QB when he's running all around the place.

Now it is early in his career and he does have potential but as it stands now, he's a liability out there.

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
