cranky

I didn't start the post - you did. I just questioned why.

Says the person who calls me a "fugin dumbass" and "dipshit" simply because I do not agree with him.

I guess I stand corrected. You are enjoying yourself as you whine about how bad the offense is. Sorry. My bad.

We win the NFC South and you post about how bad the offense is. I'm not argueing that you aren't correct with the numbers. I just don't understand why you can't wait until after the playoffs to bring all of that up. There will be plenty of time in the offseason.

I am not argueing about the facts. They are all correct and there will be plenty of time to bitch about them after the season is over. I just assumed people would want to enjoy the week regardless of how they got there.

The Panthers win the NFC South, and for the first time in 10 years, get to host a playoff game this weekend and there's 3 pages of post trashing Canales and the offense. Crazy.

LOL, guess I struck a nerve.

There you go with the name calling again. I don't know why you keep saying he had two turnovers. He only had the one int. But just for comparisons: Bryce was 24-35 266 yds, 2 TD 1 INT Mayfield was 16-22, 203 yds, 1 TD 1 INT Shough was 23-35, 259yds, 1 TD 1 INT Cousins was 18-32 180 yds, 1 TD 1 INT Guess they all suck. Seriously, I don't know what your obsession with Young is. You know they make medicine for that right.

You were using stats to make Bryce look worse than what he played. I just highlighted those stats were misleading. And his numbers weren't bad even without those two catches. They may not have been great but they were not bad. They are only shitty to the BYHC crowd.

Who cares.

So if Bryce passes 5 balls to Legette and he drops them all, would you guys still come on here and complain about how badly he did. That's basically what the guy posting the numbers did. It was a 17 yrd pass in Legettes hands and the 31 pass to TMac was caught and should have counted. A spokesman from the NFL has pretty much admitted to it. All Bryce can do is pass the ball. If it's a good pass, he should get credit for it, if not, he shouldn't and no the INT was on him. He was bailed out.

True his stats were 16/24 for 174 but if you include Legettes' weekly drop, it increases to 17/24 191. If you include TMacs 31 yrd reception which was negated because of a bogus PI call, he would have been 18/24 222 yrds. That is a 75% comp rate. I know you will say I am cherry picking but he completed both of those passes so he should get credit for them. No TD is a gift in the NFL. He only had 1 TO, the fumble is on Rico. Rico should have never tried the lateral when he slipped and besides, that's who the NFL attributed it to. His longest pass was to TMac ( 31 yards ) - not Rico His biggest play went around 45 yards in the air with two defenders in his face so it may have been underthrown but it was still a great play.

Now that's funny!

Oh no, I wouldn't change my stance on him lol.

Here's the breakdown on every 1st down play through the first three quarters Sunday. Run plays went for: 0, -2, 0, 2, 4, 4, -1 and 5 yrds. Pass plays went for: 20, 5, 11, 15, 0 and 13 yards. Canales' problem is he loves to run it on 1st downs. Everyone knows it so they stack the box - and he still runs it which consistently puts them at 2nd and long which is a failing strategy. I don't think the Rams will allowing Tmac or Cooker to get behind them again on 4th downs next Saturday. If they want to win, Bryce will need to step up. I do agree they will need the run game but I wouldn't depend on it for the win. The funny thing is I would have expected you to want Canales to put it in Youngs' hands. That would prove that he isn't the guy once and for all. Especially given the decision that will need to be made over the next several months.

Hell, I'd rather see Bryce Young there a this point.

Hopefully Hunt will be back. I don't have confidence with Corbett playing.

Over the last 8 games, Rico and Hubbard, combined, are averaging 69 yrds/game and have scored exactly 2 TD's. They have also fumbled twice. That is not a formula for winning.

True but I can assure you it happens all the time and is never called.

And don't forget that they called Jackson for tauting Mayfield which moved the FG from a 54 yarder to a 39 yarder while completely ignoring Tremble having a Bucs player rip his helmet off with a facemask. So talking to someone and hurting their feelings cost us 15 yards but ripping someones head off is OK. Given they admitted they got a call wrong last week already, it will be interesting to see how they address the shitshow that was yesterday.

Exactly. There was absolutely nothing creative in the run game. Just the same old sh*t, over and over. Reminds me of the saying: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

Guess you didn't see the run game yesterday, or last week, or the week before that, or the week before that, etc, etc. In the last seven games, Rico has 288 yrds and 1 TD and Hubbard has 188 and O tds. That's 476 total yards and 1 td over the last 7 games. That's 68 yrds per game with only 1 td. Heck Bryce almost has as many yards rushing (134 ) as Hubbard and has as many rushing tds ( 1 ) as Rico and Hubbard combined over that period. Given the Bucs had the worst run game in the NFL under Canales, I would have to say the run game struggles here are just a reflection of Canales' weakness in that area.

The first game of the season against the Jaguars and thier new rookie HC starting his first game and Canales was outcoached. Against the Saints and their new rookie head coach he was outcoached - twice. Watching the last several games with the questionable play calling, to say nothing of the lack of any consistancy in any area, I'm starting to wonder if he is up to the task. Looking over his record with TB and Mayfield is interesting. Here are Mayfields numbers with Canales verses Coen. The highlighted row is with Canales. As you can see, Mayfiled improved significantly in every catagory AFTER Canales left: yardage was up by 500, comp % was up 7%, TD's were up by 13 etc. Then when you look at TBs' rushing numbers that year under Canales, it gets even worse as Tampa was dead last in rushing with Canales. DEAD LAST There is no doubt the Panthers have improved but I'm begining to wonder if Canales has hit his ceiling already.

I've changed my mind, get rid of Legette. Too many penalties, drops, poor spacial awareness, interceptions (remember the catch where the Saints defender simply pulled it from his arms for the int). Great guy and I wish him well but he's more of a liability than an asset at this point.

So you are telling us the that one of the highest paid CB's in the NFL leads in missed tackels AND penalties? How much is he getting paid again lol.
