Former Stiller great Terry Bradshaw is not a big fan of Jimmy Clausen.
“I didn’t like him in college and I don’t like him now,” Bradshaw said to a crowd at EverGreen RV in Middlebury.
When asked about Clausen’s potential as a pro, Bradshaw gave his opinion.
“I don’t like his delivery. He’s slow. I don’t know how many big games he’s won (at Notre Dame). As far as I can count, not many.”
“A lot of guys can throw the ball and pile up stats, but are you a difference maker?”
Guess what — the Bayou Blowhard has a point. And I hates me some Terry Bradshaw. One of my happiest sports moments is when it looked for all the world like Turkey Joe Jones had liquified Bradshaw’s vertebrae with a pile-driving sack in 1976.
But like I said the day the Panthers traded up for drafted him, Clausen was too often on the losing end of impressive 4th quarter stats for me to declare him the next Joe Montana.
Would love to be wrong — and I’m still hoping someone maims Bradshaw.
