If Fox starts Pike, or he starts Clausen...

What does this say about the one he doesn't pick, since I've read on RotoWorld that supposedly whoever he starts this week will finish out the season?

If he starts Pike, does this mean Clausen will have to settle for being the likely #3 QB next year with the new coach?

If he starts Clausen, do we wave bye to Pike?

Fox hates Clausen more than TRD, PFFL and P55 combined, just about.

I thought Fox hated Pike?

Both have looked poor. Really can't justify starting one over the other.

I mean, I guess it doesn't matter. Clausen has more NFL experience over Pike, but that's not saying much based on how he has played.

Either way, they were both drafted this year. Our QB situation is just awesome.

Dammit.

He looks for excuses not to play Clausen, obviously his stats are good for that but seeing if he can develop is not something Fox is interested in, he doesn't want Clausen to become a decent QB and kick the ass of the team Fox coaches next year. Pike could be a good QB but he is so weak-armed he makes Moore or Clausen look like Favre or Manning. Refer back to the preseason game @PIT for details.

I know there is talk about the "possibility" of starting Pike, but I don't see that happening.

I think they're just trying to keep the Bucs guessing so they can't focus 100% on tape of Clausen. Raheem Morris said in his conf call with reporters that they are watching tape of both Pike and Clausen at the moment, so each minute they spend watching tape of Pike is a minute they don't spend watching tape of Clausen...

      No poo tho you might could Jenkins for Legette. They got nothing at WR after the big 2 in Cincy. I don’t think you trade away OL depth. Could get a quality player in cuts. Really that 3-4 end spot what you should be looking for is someone who is stout with long arms and can push back the OL in both the run and pass game for others to make plays…. But we signed Wharton, sometimes I think Evero is a fraud ass nerd who should be an analyst at best.

      you would honestly probably do Monroe Freeling more of a disservice by putting him in a position where is not yet ready to succeed. .we all knew Monroe Freeling struggled at the NFL combine in drills because of technique related issues & would need time to develop  & now all of a sudden before they even put the pads on Monroe Freeling is somehow a starting LT in the NFL ? if he struggled at the NFL scouting combine what do you actually think is going to happen in a live NFL game at LT ? .even our best LT of all time was not ready to start at LT when he was a rookie & he turned out to be a pretty good darn LT by the name of Jordan Gross ...just saying be patient Young Jedis

      well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying
