Carolina Panthers coach John Fox waffles on QB Jimmy Clausen recently. Clausen had struggled with ball handling.

On Monday, the coach said in a press conference that whether Matt Moore or Jimmy Clausen will be the quarterback is early to say.

He said, “We’ll evaluate that as we move forward this week.”

Jimmy Clausen was 9 of 22 for 61 yards in the loss against Bears by 23-6. Moore too over Jimmy and he was 5 for 10 for 35 yards. Earlier he was replaced as started this season after the second game.

Well, it is just two games this season for Clausen and the move of his following a loss to Tampa Bay is too early. But there was no choice for Carolina Panthers after a preseason of futility with Matt Moore running the offense.

Still, Veteran tackle Jeff Otah is sidelined due to knee issue and the offense continues. There is no update from Fox for veteran wide receiver Steve Smith, who is suffering from ankle sprain and missed the loss to Chicago.
