Clausen not rolling over on being the starter

Yes more useless fluff until the lockout get settled. Clausen is working out every day trying to get better. It doesn't appear that he got the memo saying Newton will be the starter day 1.

Once the lockout is lifted, Clausen is eager to return to Carolina and begin his battle for the starting quarterback spot.

"I can only control what I can control and that is going out each and every day and working as hard as I can to get better," he said. "That is what I am doing here each and every day, working out with the guys to try and get ready for the season."

That is all Clausen has ever said, ever since we drafted him.

"All I can do is try and get better. All I can do is try and get better. All I can do..."

Shut the hell up JC! Either cook something else up to say or don't say anything at all!

I actually hopes he gets better so we can trade him for a 2nd rounder.

This.

I know a lot of people resent the hell out of him, but we should all root for his success anyway. Ideally he will start the first few games and play well enough to generate some trade interest. If he isn't a bust, maybe he can be our version of Kevin Kolb in 2012.

I personally don't want him to ever touch the field. I'd rather see Moore back up Newton than Clausen. Moore needs to be the man standing by with the clip broad and headset

You guys are so judgemental!!!

Here is a guy being humble and not giving up.

Trying his best and wanting to improve no matter what!

With his attitude, Clausen will win a championship for sure!

In something other than football, because he really sucks at it.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
