He is in an air raid offense so I would take the stats with a grain of salt.  And he was mainly operating out the shotgun so he is going to have to learn to play more under center and dropping back.  Which again teams are probably going to shy away just because of his knee and complete lack of immobility

Whoooooo. That arm! At his best he's pretty damn good. The ball comes off his finger tips and just travels. Beautiful. I wouldn't be mad at Strong at six actually. It's a better pick than old Pickett.

Those throws at distance are so effortless for this young guy. That's a NFL arm. His motion tricks the eye in that it doesn't look like velocity until the damn ball is way down the field dropped in a bucket.

Also he did scramble a bit in that video above.

The "not at 6" stuff is amusing.  QB is the most critical position on the field.  If you think he is good, you take him.  If not, you don't.  Period, end of discussion.  

 

I agree and it's in large part why I made this yes/no.  It's a lazy argument while still agreeing to get a QB but in the most unrealistic way (1st rd trade down)

I could see an argument if one wants to make one for Pickett but it's rather "not at 6".

      J Person article on Canales and game plan and Rico

      By CRA · Posted

      I just keep the main thing the main thing.   The equivalent here would be you raging about Joe Brady needing to be fired.   Me saying, Matt Rhule is the issue and firing Joe Brady doesn't address the biggest issue at hand and won't actually matter.  Which is a dance I did then too.  You then call me a Joe Brady apologist because I wouldn't get away from Matt Rhule being THE problem.  the main problem is Bryce Young and his supporters in the front office.  Until that changes, nothing matters.    Canales being a weak OC in over his head? Time and a place.  You can go check my threads from preseason where I blasted amateur hour  Canales for not calling plays.  He needed work because he isn't good.  But that's not the biggest issue we got.   Like I said, nothing really matters big picture until Bryce Young and his backers address THE problem.  Which is the QB.   I have gone into painful detail about the entire Dave scheme is dependent on a QB bailing out a meh scheme and approach.  I didn't want Dave.  Dave is Foxball in reality.  Which is what Pete did in Seattle in reality.  It's the same approach and it needs a QB to bail it out.   You want me to bash stuff I addressed long ago.  I'm no Dave fan.   But the biggest issue for the Carolina Panthers is Bryce.   I want the outcome that leads to Bryce Young not being retained.  That's what is best for the Carolina Panthers.  You want 2 more pointless wins notched onto a meaningless season if it means just another completely pointless season tied to Bryce?  Not me.

      We have a Dave Canales Problem

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Canales comes across as this uber positive, cheerleader guy, but he does seem like he can make a cold decision when needed (see: Bryce benching, calling out Coker, a few others).  Something about him makes me feel like he's a bit sneaky with how he can get.  He's the type where I think if he's just in a room with Tepper, he'll let it out about what he thinks to save his ass.   And even with the wins, I just don't see much camaraderie between Canales & Young.  They don't reference each other in the usual QB-HC tone/dynamic in pressers and games.  It seems like Bryce is still trying to prove himself and Dave is still just not impressed, trying to figure out what even works with the kid. My gut says he won't be shy to explain to Morgan and Tepper what he needs to succeed.  And that doesn't include Bryce.  Barring some epic turnaround, the book is close to being written.  He will have more leverage.  If he's gifted a 3rd season, I highly doubt he's going to look and say, yep, let's just try it again with Bryce.  That isn't happening.

      Underrated part of all of this. Feel like it was Kaye that reported that NOBODY wanted to touch this job, so we had to go with someone not really even getting interviews/hire someone too early.  A. Tepper is dumb to have not listened to Harbaugh if it's true he wanted to be here, since that was the only name I remember being *potentially* tied to us B. You can cycle through QBs every single year. You can't do that with coaches and expect to hire anybody worth a poo. Even if Canales sucks, optically we almost have to give him 3 years minimum to prove we're a serious team for once and not scare anyone else off.
