He'll get cut. We don't need to carry 3 QBs anyway. We could use the extra roster spot for someone else that can actually be useful. If it does come down to the 3rd stringer, our season is screwed anyway and we could pick up someone off the street that's 100 times better than Jimmy.

I don't think many believe it to be possible. But why would anyone trade for him, knowing he is probably going to be released.

Only team that maaaaaaaybe would do it is the Seahawks. But even then, I doubt it.

He will be cut.

He will get one more shot though.

Raiders are the only team I could come up with.

Moot point. The Raiders are still super retarded.

From better sources than Wikipedia:

The Carson Palmer trade was made on October 18th

(http://content.usatoday.com/communities/thehuddle/post/2011/10/espn-former-bengals-qb-carson-palmer-will-be-traded-to-raiders/1)

Al Davis died October 9th.

I really dont understand all the Clausen hate. He was a rookie in a horrible position when he started. He never complained last yr and seemed to be soaking everything in. He is relatively cheap when talking about a QB and he has some potential to be a decent back up.

Why not give him the preseason to see whats going on and if hes improved?

He isn't good, he's had two years to prove himself.

Football is a business.

He's a nice guy, but clearly isn't what's best for the team.

      Or just don't be an ass and hang out in the left lane. Just use common courtesy. The people who tailgate and be an ass are no better and its not a surprise that a lot of road rage incidents occur when inconsiderate people and assholes cross paths. Just make an effort not to be either. "Not allowing the bully to bully you" is also being an inconsiderate ass to the people behind the "bully" who would also like you to GTFO of the left lane.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      It was completely disgusting and the most obvious fix I’ve ever witnessed. Deflating. It’s probably gone on for decades but high def TV has truly outed the egregious ‘officiating’. When was the last time a small market team was allowed to win a SB?  Offensive holding is it, and it’s so predictable. 2nd and 7 turns in to 2nd and 17. Defense pins their ears back, covers the slot guy and TE roaming the middle, and watches for the WR/RB screen. D line needs to maintain gap integrity. The deep shot to the WR down the sideline is a low percentage play so no real worry there. Most average O lines won’t be able to convert.  Loser getting too close to FG range in a close game? Holding. Winner needs a short field? Holding. DCs love them some obvious passing downs. Narrows down the playbook and significantly puts the odds in their favor. Put a team in 2nd/3rd and long all day and they are NOT going to win that game. It would be interesting to do a statistical analysis of the relationship of holding calls and game outcomes.  This is where having skill position people that can go yard on any given play is so valuable.

      It can still be enjoyable.  I don't think the players are in on it.  I mean, I think they probably understand the "business" but they are trying.  So it's fun to watch them.  But I admit I'm not even close to emotionally invested as I was before the SB50.  It also just happens it's usually on a Sunday and I don't have much going on anyway.  I really think it's just one head ref that can push a game the way he wants it from instructions from the man upstairs.  Why else do they keep bad refs?   I don't think it always works out when they try to push the game though but more often than not it works.  Sometimes a team can beat the refs and the opposing team but it's rare.
