Fair enough, I agree with the idea of playing him sometime this year, but I'm not sure I'd throw him right in. When you have a bad team, I am a believer in bringing the rookie QB along a bit slower than just tossing him out there, unless he is a first rounder like Newton. We don't have good pass protection, which will be a bigger issue with a guy who the game has not slowed down for yet, and who will be seeing game planned NFL defenses for the first time. We also don't have a great defense or an elite running game to hang our hat on, So I think if you throw him out there, you just end up with what happened to Clausen last year.
But before the end of the year, I would like to see him get a few starts, and maybe sooner if it becomes painfully evident that Palko doesn't add anything to the mix...
