What folks are overlooking (no pun intended) is that in the same breath he mentioned how Brees was a very effective short QB, he said it's important for a QB to stand tall in the pocket... that's not as much about the QB's actual height as it is about his presence and that was an issue for Clausen last year, standing in the pocket and delivering the ball, even when you know a big hit is coming.

Clausen will have to develop a lot of Brees' mechanics if he is ever going to make it.

Brees releases the ball so far above his head it look like Jim Palmer from the old Orioles.

adding to that, i want to see him be a frikkin leader out there on the field who doesn't take crap from smith or anyone and can put him in his place when needed. i would like to see jimmy grow a set and become a solid leader, but i just don't see that with him.

i also want to see the QB grow and improve. i want him to get more bold and confident in what he's doing. i didn't get that with clausen at all last year.

That's something Shula should help with. And not being a rookie on a bad team won't hurt either.

I thought we had someone who has been able to do that...

TRD's optimism is infectious.

Very optimistic, all the time.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
