Panthers await clearance for Clausen to play

[Laetitia]

(By Darin Gantt, [email protected]) You could get the sense from listening to Carolina Panthers coach span class=boldJohn Fox/span on Monday that he'd prefer to start span class=boldJimmy Clausen/span at quarterback Sunday at Cleveland.p/But the way this season has gone, he's not going to lock into anything.

it seems like the NFL being more cautious about concussion gives MORE incentive for dirty hits.

Knowing you can knock a guy out for up to two weeks is a pretty juicy opportunity.

That's why the Panthers are awaiting clearance. They're that cheap.

He'll have to get the T-Bone instead of the Porterhouse, the Horror!!!

These guys wipe their ass with a few thousand dollars...

Nobody will take these rules seriously until they start suspending guys.

Did Talib get a fine or any disciplinary action for the hit on Clausen on the last play of the game?

[Goosfraba21]

So it sounds like we need to extract justice the next time we see him...

After seeing Pierre.......... I'm actually excited that we could have Clausen back this week. Maybe that was the point of bringing in and starting Pierre?

Said the exact same thing last week and at the game. St Pierre was so bad that Clausen would be a significant upgrade.

It is sad we are so terrible this year.

It's definitely one way to get a little hype going Clausen's way.

Would love to see Clausen at least have a couple of solid games before the season ends. Give us something to look forward to next year. Either with him leading us into the future, or with the decent draft pick we'll get for him (If he shows some solid improvement across the board) if the new HC wants to bring his own guy in.
