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...

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
