Brad Idzik spent four years as an offensive assistant at Stanford, three of those years were actually with McCaffrey.

Oddly enough, this past year Canales used Rachaad White in a similar fashion to the way McCaffrey was used by us (and the 49ers).

Only McCaffrey and Breece Hall had more receiving yards from the running back position than White and only McCaffrey, Hall, and Kamara had more receptions than White.

Have to wonder if the Panthers will target a pass catching RB in the draft (Bucky Irving, Will Shipley, Blake Watson, etc.) or in free agency (Antonio Gibson) as that seems to be a part of Canales’ game plan.

Evero has only been a DC for two seasons.  One here and one at Denver.  It would be in his best interest to stay here and build upon his successes.  Honestly, imagine what he could do without such bad injury luck.  No way we are this unlucky in regard to injuries two seasons in a row.

If he keeps the defense consistent or shows improvement he will be a HC during the next cycle.

With a better offense he can lead a stellar defense.  Still a few holes though including MLB and Edge…assuming guys stay healthy

I thought he was known as a good o-line coach, but maybe not?

He generally is, he was just scapegoated a few years back by Seahawks fans and management mostly due to struggles brought on by Wilson's atrocious pocket presence. Afterwards he put together a solid OL after the Raiders cut half their starters and has been generally well regarded pretty much everywhere else.

FYI

There was a picture taken in October 2023 that shows Drew Lock working in an empty hotel ballroom with quarterbacks coach Kerry Joseph reviewing calls and routes before the game. 📸   While we know how well he contributed to the Geno Smith resurrection,  Lock stepped in when Smith was injured late in the 2023 season and completed 71% of his passes (2 TDs vs 2 Ints) vs. the Niners in a loss.  He then completed 66% of passes (2 TDs, 1 Int) in a win against the Eagles.  To me, the fact that he had the backup prepared says a lot.  Joseph had a 19 year career in professional football (CFL) as a QB before that.  Could he be the guy?

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
