[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 1036661, member: 5830"] You both gave great examples of Clifford's skills. I guess that I'm still relying on training camp reports from last year that Clifford doesn't really have an NFL arm, meaning he just doesn't have the strength to get it deep with speed. I only heard that twice, but if it truly is the case then NFL secondaries will play the under and make it really difficult for him to find throwing windows. I think that these were podcasts so I won't be able to find the references again, but they basically said that Love could hit long passes/bombs with accuracy and speed, while Clifford's long balls lacked speed and hung up in the air longer, the further that he tried to throw. Maybe that will change with more practice, weights, and Clements working on his mechanics. Who knows. To Thirteen Below's point, I think that he specifically was brought in for his intelligence and to be a second "teacher" to Love, just like Doug Pederson was to Favre. It's the guy with the brains teaching the guy with the talent. Love has the brains too but it helps to have that student-of-the-game sitting next to you in meetings and film review, telling you things that the coaches may not be able to impart. I hope that we never have to see Sean do more than a few kneel-downs or garbage time throws. If he is thrust into the mix, I think that he will be a bit like Josh Dobbs for the Vikings last year. He'll surprise the first few teams but then fall into more of a game manager style once defenses pick out his strengths and weaknesses. [/QUOTE]
