Clausen stopped listening to coaches


Sword

Since people always seem to question me when I bring this up, I found a place where it's quoted from his chat.

And this was then supported by Michael Lombardi of the NFL network from a ‘source inside the organization’.

Gantt said exacty “It didn’t help that he (Clausen) stopped listening to the coaches” I asked him to clarify and he said “It’s safe to say he didn’t think they were giving him good instruction”.

Sure, Hurney may have picked Clausen, but Clausen also chose to ignore Hurney’s coaches.

So there.

John Fox's system is basically designed for a fairly average QB to do pretty well.

It is why Jake and Matt Moore have winning records under Fox.

Maybe Jimmy tuning out is why he never improved and regressed. I don't think much of Fox or Davidson......but Clausen flat out stunk. If he quit on the coaches......then it might be no real shock why players keep talking about the qb position so much.

Rip was/is a terrible QB coach! And Davidson? hahahahaha!

Pickles might be smarter than we thought.

Ok lets see, in college he had a guy that is considered one of the better QB coaches/ OC's in the NFL. Then he comes here he has a buttclown that is dumber than most Highschool coaches. Unfortunately for Fox and Davidson he already knew what good coaching looked and sounded like and they weren't it.

I gotta wonder, how many times you think he called his old ball coach up and said 'this is what they are saying' and Weis said 'don't' sweat it, Fox is done in a year ignore their asses'.

The coaches quit on the team before the season started. They knew they would not be here after the season. They didn't care if Clausen got better or not.

But whatever, tired of talking about it, so carry on with the Clasuen hate thread part 1,367,581.

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
