Luck Side Effects


Mother Grabber

Recommended Posts

Yep, that would deffinitely be one of the side effects

I can see the ESPN story now.

Panther's Luck runs out or Panthers lucky streak continues...

It'll be a million times worse than when we had Chad Mustard, and some of those jokes and puns were beyond awful.

Jimmy: Well Andrew, in the NFL you want to throw to the check down running back as much as possible. It's safe and sometimes they'll break tackles

Luck: Sounds great Jimmy, watch this.

/throws 60 yard TD pass to streaking David Gettis, pulls out his dick, looks at Jimmy expectantly

So Andrew Luck is gay?

I would expect Jimmy to start in 2011 and keep the job as long as he's effective. Eventually he would be traded for picks.

If that was to happen, hopefully he plays better then he has this year, because if he plays how he has played this year it will only hurt his trade value. I mean look at him, he can't handle a snap under center so we move him to shotgun and he still drops it? Wtf? Plus he has issues that just simply can't be fixed within a lifetime. Clausen is garbage

I'm so glad the Panthers hired you as a professional scout.

You bring in Harbaugh as well let Luck start and let Harbaugh coach up Clausen to be an outstanding backup. If Luck was to be out for some games and Clausen comes in and plays well in his absence we could be looking at a Matt Schaub type situation (Falcons traded him for 2 2nds and swapped 1sts) or more recently Cassel. Thats why I like him so much the guy is simply one of the best QB coaches in the game. People forget the job he did with Josh Johnson in SD.

re: the cassel trade...you do realize that the pats only got a 2nd rounder for cassel AND vrabel together.

most we can hope for is someone sees something in clausen's 200:1 passes to TD ratio and will give us a late round pick. if luck comes here, there is no incentive to let clausen start another year. package him up and trade him to some desperate for a QB team. maybe we can get a 2nd. i'd be surprised, though. lots of things would have to happen for clausen to get anymore value than that.

It's difficult to say what would happen to Jimmy, but I don't think it's a lock that he would be traded. Honestly, it's still too early in his young career, and our O-line and coaching has been so suspect, that I don't believe that anyone can efficiently evaluate him. I don't even know that it would necessarily be smart to immediately unload him, regardless if we draft the next big thing, because of the draft bust factor. The only thing I can say with 100 percent certainty is that Clausen has been compromised.

But his hands are small!!!! Cut him nooowwww!!!!11!!1!1!1!!!

I did know that I also know I would take a single 2nd in a heartbeat if we got Luck. And I never said to let him start I said that if Luck was to be out a couple of games and Clausen could come in and play well we could get that type of compensation. As it stands right now we would be lucky to get a 4th for Clausen.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
