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. 🙏

    • Which is why I'm all for trading Lamelo. Guy misses half of every season. I swear he just likes to sit on the bench to show off his street clothes. I think it negatively impacts the other guys who do the same. If guys don't want to play, they don't need to be here. Coach and gm need to get stricter
    • See, I have a different view of it. I think that just the opposite is very true, and often proven on our very own team.  Look at the impact that CMC had when he was here.  Look at how bring in two top rate IOL to play guard last season made a huge difference in finally getting a stable front for Bryce to live behind. It took a while for it to bear fruit, but those last games were just relevatory. And off ball linebackers like Luke Kuechly, not just running a defense but dictating the game when he's on the field, truly remarkable what a difference that makes. Personally, he had as much or maybe even more to do with that Super Bowl appearance as Cam did.  What I see in the NFL is teams trying hard to cover up for a lack of good linebackers by stacking the D-line. But it gives them a crust defense, one that is hard and crunchy on the outside but a feast within. Linebackers shouldn't just rule the middle of the field, but should be directing traffic and working as enforcers.  But hey, whatever. "Devalued" positions often come back to bite you in the ass when they are neglected. Ask anyone who has had to clean up the mess left behind by a former college coach who took over a pro team and brought their college recruiting mindset in. Yanno, like Matt Rhule did.   
    • I see it this way--XL was raw.  Raw players when drafted who are forced to start immediately are very raw players in the NFL-- How is he helped? TMac will shift the focus of the defense away from XL.  XL will be more experienced.  He will have an offseason of jugs work.  He is a very good athlete.  He can only get better.  Wallace?  Same thing.  He will get better with an improved defensive front and the addition of these heat-seeking head hunters at S.  I think about the players we will have on defense in 2025 that we did not have in 2024. Derrick Brown. DE Brown III NT Wharton DE Jones Edge Moehrig S Princely. Edge Scourton. Edge Ransom. S Cam Jackson NT Roseboom  LB While we may not know what we have, we know what we don't have--
