Is there a reason every Canales thread gets locked? You could root for Bryce Young to get hurt and a mod will pie you but if you bring up Canales, it's off limits for some reason.

keep it to football and it's ok.

pretty simple.

Hey @rayzor @LinvilleGorge is there a reason you guys keep locking those Canales threads?

 

Seems like people just want to discuss this guy off the field. I see no harm with people wanting to discuss his personal past. We do it for the players it's alright to do it for the HC as well.

 

When you guys lock those threads it seems like you trying to hide his past from others. This guy has changed it's okay for us to discuss his past. Let the huddle get to know our new HC please!

 

We don't hide from our past we embrace it baby!

I agree, no need to lock them all. I respect people that can screw up and admit it over hypocrites who screw up themselves and just judge others because some of their beliefs may not line up with their own.

because the discussions always ends up taking a tinderbox bent. you want to debate or rehash all this stuff then take it somewhere else. same talking points keep getting brought up as if no one has heard it before. 

it's a constant beating of a dead horse. more, it's not football.

Yeah, the subject matter means it's inevitably gonna end up in the TB so just redirect there.

Especially when the OP of said thread attacks certain groups they obviously disagree with in their TL/DR epic rant. 

If Canales and his staff doesn't work out, it has nothing to do with their personal lives outside of football.  It would mean they aren't good football coaches.  So keeping it 100% about football it should remain.

I agree to a point but when there's three new "Bryce Young is the worst QB who ever lived" threads every Sunday, using "beating a dead horse" as reasoning for locking Canales threads seems weak. I get that the contents can make it TB-worthy, but hell, I'd leave one of them open for discussion in this forum, move another to the TB and lock the rest. He's only the head coach -- seems prudent to discuss him. But it's not my place, so y'all do as you please.

I really hate that thread was locked. That post was so absolutely nuts, the entertainment value lost is such a shame.

People fail at jobs all the time because of their personal lives. 
 

fwiw at most big corporations his past would preclude most of us from employment. Not the c suite people of course

That's cool if that how you felt across the board, but I know it's not, and was crystal clear in that post.  Is he qualified?  I would say his resume' is thin.  I have no idea how he's going to turn out or the team with his staff hires.  Odds are stacked against him heavily, but his personal life, especially the distant past isn't conflicting him now.  He seems to be in a good place with his personal life and if he fails here it's because of this bad franchise, the tight window he's got to turn this thing around in and largely coaching decisions.  Let's pray for his success. 🙏

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By CanadianCat · Posted

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
