Jimmy Clausen is getting Ripped on the NFL RedZone Report. Here’s a small excerpt, “Let me tell you something about Jimmy Clausen. Ready? I’m going to let you in on a secret. He sucks.” Dr. Roto goes on, “This guy should not be a pro quarterback. Maybe in the CFL, maybe a third stringer in the NFL somewhere, this guy is not a pro quarterback.” Here's the whole thing.

Don't believe there is any way you can make a definitive statement about a player, especially a qb, until they've at least had 3 years in the NFL. Some of them don't begin to blossom until after that, rich Gannon for example, or our own Steve Burline.

Yup i see Jimmy as a Gannon too its going to take a few years and it's not going to be on this team

Brees took 3 years to become elite , most fan believe because of certain QB's on other teams took their team to the playoffs early in the career that all young QB's should do it, while you hope for it as a fan, it's just not realistic

I hope Jimmy gets to start and does become great it just won't happen HERE

One may argue the point, but Jimmy's technique as an actual QB is decidedly more polished than Cam's, but the problem is is that he's inexperienced with the reads and is somewhat skiddish (not that I can totally blame him). Whether he can greatly improve, still remains to be seen, but I do see some improvement. I am not ready to call him a bust, but neither am I ready to annoint him as the poor man's Drew Brees. He could be too short or too slow to start in the NFL, but only time will tell. I like his motivation, determination, and ability to be analytical about the whole situation because he has been placed in a tough spot since he became a pro.

didn't say he will become brees, just that he's in the same situation and will never get a fair shake here:seeya:

I really hope we have a new thread every time any tv or radio personality weighs in on one of our players. I feel so poorly informed that I didn't know "Dr. Roto" didn't like Jimmy! Someone call Rivera!

I dont understand why you would complain about an informative post regarding the panthers , These forums should stand as a place where all info concerning the panthers can be found. Instead we have only a small handful of people able to start new threads, and site admins who never answer emails, and smart@ss comments like yours. :)

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
