Trade Clausen to the Colts

If you can believe it, they have worse QB's than the Panthers. Peyton Manning had neck surgery in May and hasn't played at all in the preseason and might not be ready for the start of the regular season.

It's clear the Colts have no replacement for Manning for when he retires or otherwise. Clausen is young and still impressionable, why not let him learn under one of the greatest QB's ever? We should at the very least get a second rounder for him, or perhaps grab a DT or CB in the process....

Just a thought. Here's an article about the Colts owner sniffing around in Hattiesburg looking for Brett Favre.

Or maybe Peyton Manning is just that good. I haven't seen a player who hasn't post good numbers with this dude at the helm.

I mean we're talking about their situation if Manning can't play...

Send Clausen back to Indiana where he had his hey-day....of sorts. Or maybe that means they DEFINITELY don't want him. Who knows.

    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
    • I dont recall that happening to a qb but my memory has been crap the past few years
