no, because cashner has flashes of brilliance against high professional competition. clausen has not. with quarterbacks who are going to be good, you can see their talent early on. clausen is plodding, his footwork is bad, his release his slow, his arm isn't strong enough, and his decision-making is hard to evaluate because his accuracy is so bad, you're not even sure who he's trying to throw the ball to most of the time.

 

Plenty of players show flashes of brilliance and never put it together. A player simply shouldn't be evaluated on a partial season of playing time.

 

if some players show flashes of brilliance and still never put it together, what does that say about clausen's chances?

Is anyone from Nigeria not royalty?

 

You know what Toby? When the son of the deposed king of Nigeria emails you directly asking you for help, you help! His father ran the freaking country, ok?

Wow, it is gonna SUCK to try to run on the Lions the next 7 years or so. They're slowing coming around and building a respectable team.

 

They have a legit shot to win the NFC North next year. They're not the favorites, but if Stafford can stay healthy they're good enough to win it.

I don't know about their secondary. I'm not saying they "can't" win, but they wouldn't be my pick for the division. They're about 1 or 2 players away from playoff contention, though. They're almost there, and they're not gonna be doormats anymore.

I won't deny that. The 7-3 game in Detroit was pretty pathetic.

At least there's one team in the first round I feel like the Titans did better than.
