Does Rivera know Clausen exists?

Read the article in the observer this morning. Between that and his other comments Rivera has made on the QB situation I have not heard him even mention Clausen. He basically speaks as if the guy isn't on the roster.

Which is a good thing. I would lose respect for any posturing about Clausen's potential, didn't get a fair chance, might fit into the scheme.

I think Rivera took the 30 minutes to decide that Clausen stinks and is wisely moving on.

Don't be supervised if Clausen is not on the roster by the end of 2011. You heard it here!

Rivera certainly knows Clausen does exist. That is why from day one all he has talked about is finding a QB. Rivera talks about that over and over and over.

I think Rivera knows not all QBs can function in all offenses. Clausen isn't meant for his and wasn't for Fox's.

Rivera has spoken plenty about Clausen. What he's generally said is that he doesn't believe last season should be taken as the be-all/end-all evaluation of him because it was a bad situation and he was thrown in sooner than he should have been. He's also stated that Clausen will have every chance to prove whether he can be the franchise quarterback or not.

Will he prove it? Unknown, but he'll be given a shot.

I wouldn't assume he goes into the season as a starter, but I have little doubt he'll be on roster through next season.

    • Such a dumb pick and most of us knew it Ladd would’ve been the perfect match with Bryce But instead they draft XL to fill the void at the X spot because we had a 34 year old Adam Thielen. Then a year later we draft a real X WR and move XL inside where he has absolutely no business being for a list of reasons
    • My logic was hopefully a new HC would have a LOT quicker hook for Bryce. But, that is assuming they would even be allowed. I guess that's a call to the owner's box for permission.
    • I’m not overly defending the pick. I was team Stroud by a country mile but I also knew what to expect as far as ceiling goes with Bryce  I had concerns with Bryce’s arm strength and size. Neither seem to overly be an issue. He’s proven to throw with enough anticipation that he makes up for a lack of velocity. I was worried about the way he played in college not translating to the league. Spending 8 seconds behind LOS. I did also think it would take Young a few years for him to reach his full potential. I also think he’s too smart and accurate to flat out bust which all of seems to be pretty accurate Bryce is someone you can absolutely win with. No one thought he’d be the type to carry a well below average supporting cast to a Super Bowl. He’s fully capable of giving you those 4-5 special plays a game that help your team win. And then you have those rare times where he’s the reason you win like in Atlanta.  All good teams have more than just a QB.  Even the teams that are winning this year all have a lot more than what we have. Supporting cast/defense… more than what we have  As far as Morgan goes I 100% agree. Fwiw he was legit team Bryce during the draft process. I know that for a fact. Last years draft is a complete write off. This past draft still up for debate. TMac and Scourton look solid. I can’t remember the last time I saw Princely win a rep and I’m being honest. Ransom has a little value. I think ETN is a nice insurance add. Evans could be a TE2.    I think this offseason Morgan will get aggressive with trying to land a pass rusher. Whether that’s a trade for Crosby, signing Hendrickson, it’s going to be top priority. We need a ILB. I really like Kaden Ellis. Sonny Styles should be in our draft range. We also need a tight end and it would be interesting to see this offseason with Kenyon Sadiq
