Could Luck improve Clausen?

Yeah the team was great last year also... this was a no-win situation for any QB.

It get's worse... I can see JR trading away this years #1 for a #1 and #2 this year and a #1 next year . The man is prepared for a lockout and I think we are stuck with Clausen for a couple of years.

we already said we're keeping the first pick and taking luck if he's there.

Playing with any QB that has a better skillset than he does will help him just by viewing a different way to do things. Having him on a team where the only other active QBs were no better didn't do him any good.

He is, before all things, a young rookie and we've all said at one time or another that throwing a Rookie QB to the wolves before they're ready will hurt their development because the NFL is a different game.

I have, and still do, believe that once Jimmy has a chance to sit behind someone else and just learn / adjust he'll get better. He won't ever be an elite QB and my personal feeling is that he'll never be more than a good backup / average starter for a team with no other options. But improvement is improvement...

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • 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.
