The deal was sealed

for me when Clausen under threw Gettis by 8 yards and 5 yards to the left on th defensive holding penalty...That should have been a touch down. If we get Gettis a qb he will be the next big thing in Carolina. Same goes for Lafell. That throw was pathetic.

How about taken a sack on 4th and 3 or the countless balls being knock down by Dlinemen.

Heard Eugene Robinson on the radio today talking about a bad pass Clausen threw. He said if it had been a better pass, it probably would have been picked off.

And so, in a resigned voice, he said "I guess we should be thankful for a bad pass."

To me, that pretty well summed up our season :(

Im still divided on the issues. There are alot of different factors Clausen has had to overcome, and not all quarterbacks have good seasons (Bradford has been an exception this year) their rookie year.

But yes Clausen has thrown some of the crappiest passes Ive seen since my brothers high school football game. His looks are horrible and stares down receiver like people stare down Cletus Delroy Spuckler in a Von Maur. Not to mention Clausen isn't a very tall guy.

I agree completely. I think both LaFell and Gettis have a lot of potential here.

That being said, both of them dropped balls they should have come down with. It's not entirely on Clausen.

Dropping a pass happens from time to time but consistently being unable to put the ball on target and running backwards when faced with pressure is not something you wanna see.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
