Clausen article

I understand he has a lot of haters.  But I think everyone should give the man props for class.  Not what we expected from him...makes that even better.

 

He always seems to say the right things and does not try to draw attention to himself.  He may not be a great talent, but I respect him.

I would say the right things too if all I got paid for was to sit in warm ups on the bench all 16 games. Clausen has it made. He'd be stupid to ruin guaranteed money.

Aww bless his heart..

Uhhh ... tough to respect a guy who shows up on signing day in a fur coat and a Hummer limo.

 

However, I do respect the fact he tanked our '10 season so we ended up with Cam, blessing in disguise.

I am just jealous that he has a better job and a hotter girlfriend than me.  Hard for a hater to be objective.

I think Clausen has really always had class. He was given the Cam Newton treatment from the beginning, unfortunately for him the media was correct and the real Cam Newton came along.

He will always be serviceable but he doesn't have much to be classless about all things considered. Glad he's a panther but also glad he's only our 3rd string QB.

Jimmy never got slack, never. Eh. Hope he lights it up in preseason and gets some interest from teams.

Seems like a lot of double standard among Panther fans who are willing to give credit to Cam for maturing but not Clausen.

Honestly, I can't say what type of talent he has because I can't really count that one season.  I know that I can take a hint by him being on third string, but I would still like to believe he has more talent than was displayed when he was on the grand stage.  Moreover, I would think that Clausen has to have learned something from the sidelines (like he said) that would allow him to harness that talent.

 

The story hasn't been completely written on AE, but I wouldn't mind Clausen following a similar track this year.  I wish him well.

BTW, regarding fur coats and hummers, most kids coming to the NFL have to grow up.

 

[Pejorative Miscreant]

Want to comment on this but I got nothing.  I think Clausen may have value as a backup somewhere but after this year I think he is gone.  Too much of a link back to the old regime. 

 

Sincerely hope he performs well in camp and makes an impression.  I wish Clausen the best in his future endeavors.

I'll be rooting for him to play well in the preseason. After that, I'll probably forget about him until him and DA celebrate with Cam.

[Frank Hollywood]

In all fairness to him being a third stringer, DA may be the best backup QB in the league.

This idea seems to be a joke around here, but I think there's a glimmer of hope he plays exceptionally well all preseason and we can trade him for a future 7th or some crappy player and knock off 500k in cap space.
