Clausen must start! Yes, you read this right.


Recommended Posts

Before any of you crucify me...

Look at it this way.

Jimmy Clausen starts the season for us, with the talent that is with him now, If Jimmy Can't produce, then ,ok, cut your losses. But if he does produce and generates decent numbers so other teams take notice. This only means Jimmy could be used a trade bait. Meaning the panthers could rape a team just like...The Eagles.

Look at the Eagles, they RAPED the Cardinals for a guy like Kolb. Kolb arguably had some really good Talent around him in Jackson, Maclin, Celek. The Cards still took a chance and gave away a good CB and a 2nd round pick for him.

We don't lose anything by doing this. Nothing, Cam gets to sit maybe 4-5 games tops. We see if Clausen can garner interest. Swindle a team into thinking he's worth say a player we might need at a certain position and a draft pick. Or just a high draft pick. At this point if we just get enough interest that they would only get a 2nd round pick for him, I say do it! Get that 2nd rounder back for the guy.

Thoughts?

Jimmy mustn't start anything. If he wins the job, then I'm all for it. If he blows in Training Camp, and the Preseason (or whatever the hell the NFL is doing) then he should promptly be cut.

He has absolutely no reason to suck this year.

    • You could be right. I feel like if Bryce has a year basically the same as last year we're better off trading him because there are likely several teams that would be interested, despite what his naysayers on this forum will tell you. Not saying we'd get a 1st or 2nd rounder, but I feel confident some team would be willing to cough up a 3rd rounder for a former #1 overall QB that has shown at least some flashes.
    • Disagree. They weren't propping up the QB by improving the OG position coming off what we saw in 2023. They were addressing an obviously horrible position group that didn't allow them to even run the offense. Even drafting XL was an attempt to address an obviously horrible position group. Drafting Brooks was to address a position that consisted of Chuba Hubbard only. And we know catching has always been his Achilles heel. They were improving what they thought were the biggest weaknesses on the team. Who knew Derrick Brown would get injured in the first game of the season and the entire defense would fall apart.  And no one was coming in to Carolina and making them respectable those first 2 seasons. QB isn't played in a vacuum. That's why Brady left the Patriots and went to Tampa to win a Super Bowl. His coach was starting to give him the Cam treatment. 
    • How long would Luke have played for us if he didn't get the concussions he did. Glad he got out before suffering any more brain damage, but damn I miss seeing him on the field
