Inside the Numbers - Cam vs Clausen - Plus a guest appearance

Recommended Posts

I finally got a chance to put my new Hauppauge HD PVR to use, and record the Panther game onto my computer, in HD, which I was pretty excited about.

Well the original plan was to post each half on youtube, but the upload times are a killer, and plus the game sucked a$$.

So instead, I just put together a highlight (if you can call it that) of each QB's pass attempts, as well as their run attempts, and sacks.

P.S. I also add Matt Moore as a bonus for the TRD's of the world.

passing stats: 7 of 14 for 66 yards

rushing stats: 4 rush att for 18 yards

passing stats: 9 of 15 for 69 yards - sacked once

rushing stats: 1 rush for 4 yards

passing stats: 6 of 10 for 73 yards

rushing stats: 3 rush att for -2 yards

Comparing the two QBs its pretty even right now, which IMO is a bad sign for Clausen. He doesn't do anything better than Newton so why would he get the start?

His deep throws are basically heaves toward a general area as opposed to an on target ball down the sideline. Neither one of them throws a deep out-route on target (probably for fear of it being picked). Clausen had one nice fade route to Clowney. Cam had a couple nice throws to the TEs.

The difference is with one guy...Steve Smith. Clausen can't throw it with enough zip on the ball anywhere on the field to get it to Steve deep. If you throw it slow, 15-25 yards over the middle its going to get picked. If you throw a duck 40 yards on a deep ball its going to get picked. That is Clausen's biggest problem..Cam doesn't have that problem and that's why he's going to start.

From seeing those throws, IMO, Cam looks like the starter. Jimmy is more accurate, but Cam seems more comfortable in the pocket and he can escape.

Jimmy's footwork is awesome compared to Cams, but Cam has much better power in his throws. JC also seems more accurate on short throws, while Cam has to work on his all around accuracy.

I like what I am seeing though. The stats don't seem better, but all things considered, against a team that has a good defense, I think it went well.

Thanks a bunch for the videos, Awesome post.

    • Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker. 
    • We only fielded about 4 NFL calibre players on that unit last year. 
    • only 1 QB in the history of mankind has managed a winning record with his opportunities in the David Tepper era.    Bring in PJ.   He has NFL tools.  He will at least be entertaining if called upon.  How is that not better than Andy.  *PJ Walker bandwagon is back up now that it is....not...time for for the percolator.
