Will Clausen really get a chance?

[OneBadassCat]

Do you guys think Clausen will actually get a chance to start this season. Will he have a real opportunity in TC?

I'm not sure. I'd like to think he would get a courtesy shot as that's kind of the way it's always been but unless he looks like a pro-bowler I don't see him really getting a shot to compete. He is Fox/Hurney's selection not Rivera's.

I see Moore getting a chance and possibly being the opening day starter and then probably starting a few more games. But it would all depend on Cam's progress.

Depends on if we sign a veteran.

If we don't i think there is a good chance he will start a few games simply because Newton is not NFL ready.

If we do he may not play at all.

[TwinkleToes]

First

[KillerKat]

Nope

I seriously doubt it, I'd rather Moore than Clausen anyway.

[rayzor]

he is essentially irrelevant.

[mav1234]

he could make his own chance but I doubt he will.

Rivera WILL play the guy who is best ready to win games when the season starts.

Clausen's career in Carolina was over the minute we drafted Newton.

[Jangler]

we should see if Weis wants him in Florida...:lol:

[Kuech Da Sneak]

I'd like to see him get a chance, and I hope the new staff gives him a fair shake.....but I doubt it.

I just hope they play whoever is better when the time comes.

I agree wholeheartedly. With the lack of reps they have missed by now, I believe Rivera will give practice time to the first QB that impresses him. So it comes down to which QB is going to step up and take the bulls by their horns? And is he even on our roster?

And GOOOOO PANTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately these guys are going to get a week or few weeks of practice at best before the first game whenever that is.

Clausen doesnt make it past the first week of free agency/trading. Not that I think he is bad, because I think he did quite good for what he was given. But to ensure this is Cam Newtons team so he can fully concentrate on leading this team, he can not have a clausen behind him. My guess is Clausen, Deangelo, and Smith will all be traded once the lockout is over.
