Favre Is Throwing Again...

When Favre picks up a ball, the league trembles.

Favre does not show up for training camp, so his influence on Cam is very limited. Besides, I do not want Cam learning some of Favre's habits, almost like I do not want Jake Delhomme here teaching Cam how to throw off the back foot into a crowd (I loved Jake, but the mechanics were terrible). We need a mechanically sound veteran if anyone--a pocket passer and not a scrambler. Cam needs experience sitting in a pocket after a five-step drop, reading the progressions. etc.

Simplified: No gunslingers for Cam

Glazer says two eagle sources say they are no way, no how interested in Favre.

Good for Brett, no thanks.

Two reasons to forget about Farvea. 1) He has never been the mentoring type. He has said many times "Why should I help somebody take my place." As a life long Lions fan I have never seen or heard him do anything to help a fellow QB. 2) If we are going to bring in a Vet QB, shouldn't it be a QB with at least some experience with Chud and his system? That list includes Volek, Anderson, Quinn, and Gradkowski. Heck, Dorsey has more pass attempts than Quinn, Volek, and Gradkowski. So in one since Cameron has already been mentored by someone with experience with Chud's system.

IMO, we are better off with Shula and Chud teaching our QBs the system. The only thing a Vet QB can bring to the table would be to teach how a starting QB acts. The "What to do's". I believe almost any Vet can teach those pricipals. Let the people that know what they want, be the ones to coach and teach. Shula has a fine reputation. Why not let him teach up Cameron, instead of wasting money and a roster spot on a Vet QB?

Look at it this way. If by some miracle Shula and Chud can acutally get something out of Clausen to allow Cameron to watch and learn for 6-8 games. It would improve Clausen's value, and by extension help the Panthers get something of value in a trade. Brining in a Vet QB would hinder that process.

I do realize I may be bucking a trend by actually posting a football related thought. But hey, I have always enjoyed bucking the system. And I have never been afraid to share my thoughts about FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!

And oh yeah, GOOOO PANTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!

My grandmother once lamented that air conditioning was ruining the world. Because people left civilization for the comfort of their homes.

For the Sterger incident? I don't think so but could be wrong. I thought he was "cleared" by the NFL for that. Regardless, I don't care what the Eagles or his agent says I think he joins the Eagles the week before game 1 if they move Kolb and don't sign a significant backup.
