Will Clausen really get a chance?

[Jangler]

nobody wants Clausen...the draft proved that.

[OchoNueve]

Clausen will only have any opportunity if Cam is injured... and Matt Moore gets injured... and Testeverde can't come back... and someone else needed Brian St. Pierre first.

[Razzy]

Yes, on another team...

[CAVSS]

As others have said; If he does it will be due to injury or on another team. Cant imagine anyone else wants him though.

[YoungPanthers89]

yes but he has no chance of beating the chosen one

[weymouthst]

Cam better start, number 1 picks should start.

Although, I fully understand if, after camps and preseason, that Cam does not seem ready Jimmy or whoever should get the start.

All I am weary about is a QB juggle like last season. Ultimately we could end up with like 5 or 6 QB changes: Cam starts, next is JC or Moore, then the FA vet, then Cam, etc etc...

I would rather just have Cam start the whole season than have a QB corall.

Either Cam is going to end up like The Golden Calf of Bristol's rookie season, or he will get to play all year.

Clausen has zero chance of being the starter. He might have a chance of playing some games but that's it. His only purpose to the panthers now is to try and get a pick for him a couple years from now.

[Ricky Spanish]

he'll be given a fair shot but he will blow it with his first pass attempt

[Mr ocho nueve]

Clausen wasn't fox's pick, the only reason Fox was sticking with Clausen was to try to stick it to JR and the rest of the management. Which, in turn, made everyone believe Clausen was a bust, when the coaches were the ones really to blame for bad decisions.

[Jackofalltrades]

Not first.

[TruCatzFan]

I've said this before, but let me reiterate it...

The best we can hope for... Is for Cam to go out for two games due to some trivial injury, like a concussion... Then Jimmy comes in and plays lights out like Kevin Kolb did when McNabb was out...

That will boost his trade value tremendously and we might just get that 1st round early 2nd round pick back that we originally wasted on the guy.

That's the best case scenario for the franchise, not just my opinion.

Better case scenario... Cam never gets hurt and never loses a game... ever.

I don't think he'll get a chance, I don't think anyone but Cam Newton will have a chance. If what Rivera said was true and that they are changing up the playbook and adding dedicated runs and more bootlegs, there isn't really anyone else on the team that could run those plays that the team would want to play at QB

[thefuzz]

I am one of the guys on here that wants to see Cam sit, and Jimmy start, but I don't think that it will happen.

It all depends on JR/Hurney, and how long of a leash they are giving Rivera in his first gig as a HC. If they have told him that we are in total rebuild mode, and they know it will take 3-4 years, I think that Cam sits. If they want wins right away, and are willing to throw Cam to the wolves, he starts.
