Let me go on the record and say...

I hated the Clausen pick, and have disliked him since his limo arrival to ND.

Still, I realize now that Moore is just not the guy who is going to turn this team around. We have seen the ceiling of his NFL abilities. With Clausen, at least there is still the sometimes legitimate excuse that he is a rookie.

I'd rather see Clausen get the ball for the rest of the season. That way we'll have a much better idea of whether or not he's got NFL potential. If he's going to suck and never make it, that's fine, I just want to know it for sure before we have a top five draft pick...you know? We can't learn that with him sitting the bench, and watching Moore's mediocrity isn't helping anyone.

3rd round pick is a backup QB and not a bust IMO. If we draft AL next year, I will be nervous as hell. For every Stafford there are 10 Rusells out there who can set this franchise and our future coach and GM back for years.

Gonna have to clean house ay QB. If they don't want Moore back they will certainly have to bring experience. And I hate to break it to you but Pike will be out of the league in a couple of years and Clausen will be a backup. No way that kid makes it as a starter in the NFL.

    • I mean, Brees was a sub 6' guy too(although they listed him as 6 foot). It is not a worry if you are an elite player. Even Flutie Flakes was able to succeed at the NFL level at his height. All QB's still need throwing lanes and different QB's play the game in a way that maximizes their abilities so they can be successful. All these sub-6 QB's we are talking about have had more NFL success that easily 80+% of 6-3 or better NFL QB's. That's why I keep beating this horse. It isn't about measurables, it's about abilities. That extends well beyond the QB position. Xavier Legette has elite abilities and measurables. Yet a slight little midget with no where near the athleticism is an infinitely better WR(McConkey). Jonathan Mingo is way more athletic than Puka Nacua. How is that working out? Never hyperfocus on measurables. It's a small part of a much bigger picture.   
    • His legs looked limited in school to me. Good enough at that level but it never looked NFL level. All the guys you mentioned made Bryce look slow and limited. What propped him up was other non-NFL level guys on the field.  Absolutely on the 2nd part. That's becaude when he bails he doesn't have to ability to make it work more often. Lots of times this year and past teams let him scramble because they obviously didn't see it as a serious threat. Hell Payton was allowed to run because he was so slow and took off so infrequently. Bryce isn't that bad but he is closer to that than to Murray. 
    • This.  Its not tennessee bad, but the Ole Miss offense is a very hard one to correlate to nfl.
