Not exactly, sure the kid had an abysmal season, but there aren't many other rookie QBs that would have done much better considering the situation he was thrown into. It will be beneficial to our franchise to have Shula work with Clausen and make him the best he can be. At this point it won't be as a starter, but hopefully he plays well enough to keep Cam working hard and excels as an NFL QB himself. Cam is bound to miss games here and there due to injury, so I'd like to think Jimmy could be thrown in and manage the game. The kid is a Panther, and thus has my support regardless of the mistakes he has made. Wishing him to fail is moronic, if you actually are a fan of this franchise first and foremost.

i didn't mean for this to turn into a clausen/newton debate, newton has already won by default and can only screw it up. i just thought it was good to see jimmy training with top tier pros in his own right and not sitting at home.

jimmy doing well and impressing doesn't have to mean that newton fails. there is a scenario in which both excel and we benefit by trading JC away for value to some QB-hungry team because he impresses in the preseason or something...

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
