Re: Claussen To Be Bears 2nd String QB
It was plain as day when you watched them play. Even though the stats were similar, you could see how Claussen threw the ball - tight spirals. Palmer's were wounded ducks. Claussen is like McCown 2.0 in that he's a vet with a decent amount of experience, an arm, some mobility, and the ability to run Trestman's system and soak up his teaching. Was a good call IMO, as much as Palmer seemed to be a good teammate.
2024: Maybe there's some hope?
