The main problem is he’s clearly a terrible leader. Leadership is an earned, developed trait. Sometimes an innate one that some people just tend to have or not have. David Tepper might have had leadership skills in the finance world, but football is an entirely different type of leadership style and different type of people to lead. The team is clearly being run poorly with so much turnover since Tepper bought the franchise. He’s incredibly impatient and honestly had no true idea of how to build a winning football team. It was the worse possible situation for the Panthers to end up with. Ben Navarro at least had some experience with football and his daughter is a professional tennis player so at least he had some understanding of what it took to build a winner in athletics. Tepper had zero idea, and he shows that every single losing season the Panthers produce. He had a layup hire to bring the Panthers out of the doldrums with Steve Wilks that he passed on, and ever since then I’ve believed Tepper will never be able to pick a head coach that will lead the team to a winning season. It will always be a mess.

I mean I HOPE we can be lucky enough to even end up in a situation with a good offensive coordinator that gets plucked to be a head coach. That would mean this team finally had some success. So I’m going to just going to have to agree to disagree on all of that. But overall the most important thing the Panthers are missing is leadership, which they haven’t had any true semblance of since Wilks was the interim head coach and especially not since Rivera was head coach. So offense or defense or whoever, get a quality leader in the big chair and let him build a quality roster of good players and men. It’s not happening right now.

That game makes no sense at all. I think the Falcons just didn’t prepare for that game thinking the Panthers were dogshit and got surprised. They picked a bad day to have a bad day

We all know this season isn’t going to get any better. Bryce Young doesn’t have the physical tools to ascend to the next level, he’s too limited to elevate the offense, and it’s unlikely he will be the starter next year. I imagine the team will try to trade him for anything they can get in the offseason. It is likely they will need to clean house again after this season depending on how bad things get, but with the purpose of going full on defense and getting back to who the Panthers were when they were successful in the past. It’s time David Tepper stops forcing his will on the franchise and they get back to what they historically have done well. Hire a defensive minded head coach. Draft defense in the first round for three straight years. Build the roster in spite of the QB. Get by with veteran journeymen and take shots on some young reclamation projects. Draft some late round QBs and maybe get lucky. But stop forcing the QB position, stop trading assets for QBs, and build the roster. There is no other path forward. Tepper has tried everything else except following the blueprint that made the Panthers even remotely relevant in the past. It’s this, or continue to be a bottom dweller until Tepper dies or sells the team.

I think Bryce is a QB who could be a quality cheerleader backup for the Buffalo Bills next year

He CAN’T open it up. The offense we see every game is everything he’s capable of. It’s year 3 for god sakes.

But now the question remains if we’ve seen enough out of Canales to let him draft a QB or start over again. To me it doesn’t even matter, as long as David Tepper’s poor leadership permeates down from the top, it won’t matter who is on the roster. They will be losers until he’s gone.

Bryce isn’t an NFL caliber QB. He’s too short and physically limited. We see it time and time again. He has a weak arm. He misses checkdowns because he can’t see over the line. It’s just so frustrating to keep watching. Unless the Panthers had the best most elite defense in the NFL, Bryce will never lead this team to more than 4 wins a season.

Just delete this sorry franchise. The panthers are worthless

I can’t really say outside of owning the falcons recently for some reason, what this team has done well under Canales

It’s over. They won’t score again until garbage time

I can’t believe they’re still putting out a player who might not make an arena football roster

Turning it off. Loser football. Why do I even bother having hope

It’s amazing what happens when the coach turns into pre riverboat Ron Rivera

That bitch canales punting twice inside the 40 took all the confidence away from the players

This game is over. Patriots started taking away Bryce’s easy throws, no commitment to the run, game over

I can’t believe they’re punting again. Cucks

God damn this was shaping up to be a great game for this team and they piss it all away by being pussy ass bitches

Game over. Canales is a retard

Because he missed an XP? He kicked a 58 yard field goal last week

Deion sanders said it best, never try to field a punt on the run

Kicker thought he was straight on, was on the left hash. Give him a mulligan but if he keeps it up, we will see

Deangelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart got Jon Gruden fired.

Brooks will either rise from the dead and become a Thomas Davis level player or he will go down as the second coming of Eric Shelton. I'm betting it's the latter.

The Panthers HATE pass covering safeties. Always have, always will.
