Is Clausen Hurt?

Best thing to do is to start Anderson.

Panthers have a lot of issues besides QB. Probably not headed to Super Bowl this season....just sayin.

With no OTA's and such, this new offense will not be learned overnight. Do not send Cam nor Jimmy out on the field until they know a bit more about the offense. I would say week 6 should be about right.

Cam will have to start soon, no matter how he plays. Number one pick on the bench makes the whole front office look stupid. All this talk about Jimmy supplanting Cam is nonsense, even though at this point, he is ahead of Cam.

Some enlightenment, courtesy Google:

Dear Cecil:

OK, Popsicles and Fudgesicles I understand. So what's the difference between a Creamsicle and a Dreamsicle?

— C.S., Chicago

Cecil replies:

The sherbet-like shell of the Creamsicle is identical to that of the Dreamsicle, but the payoff inside is ice cream in the former, ice milk in the latter. The difference in price, last time I checked, was about a nickel.

— Cecil Adams

Also, Google suggests many homemade Dreamsicles are made with various liqueurs or vodka...

or you can just get the drink with the same name ;)

I can name a half dozen NFL starting quarterbacks with arms no stronger than Jimmy's.

I can name half a dozen NFL starting quarterbacks with arms no stronger than mine, doesn't mean I can play quarterback. Clausen isn't too short, weak armed, or inaccurate. Jimmy Clausen's problem is that he isn't really very good at football.

True, and i'll bet he's had more coaching in this short season than in all of last season.

      Panthers OLB Pat Jones II makes bold claim about team's defense

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.

      We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.

      I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
