Players like Dave Canales' energy, appreciate his "consistency"

Tepper can show he’s changed by following the Detroit timeline. Dan Campbell went 3-13 while starting the season like 0-11 then was winless till week 7 (and the hot seat will he make it talk started) in 22 then the light switched on. Gotta give it time.

Canales hasn't had this opportunity yet so time will tell, but that Detroit team was steadily improving and fighting even though they were losing. That's what I will be judging on - is the bar consistently moving higher and are we seeing young players improving on the field week by week?

Yep. There is such a thing as firing a coach TOO early. You gotta let the rookie HC get AT LEAST 3 seasons.

Kyle Shanahan struggled.  People dog on him, but I wouldn't mind losing Super Bowls compared to this.

100 percent. Just show steady improvement and fight and you’re good. There will be some here upset at a losing season but there’s difference between 2-15 23 panthers vs say 4-13 panthers that had a point season diff of say -50

Rome wasn’t built in a day, but we can’t even build Gastonia

Gastonia wasn't built in a day either.  It take time, that's all I'm saying.  Those of you expecting this team that still 75% the same roster as last season to be miles better immediately need to take a breath here.

That's all.

Just understand its been 6 years and fans are beyond tired of waiting. These toooooooo early results are not helping. No matter who was playing, that PS week gave out 2023 season is not over. BTW that was against the other worse team.This is the least talented team and Dan had 7 draft picks and added no one to the starters thus far. Team been putting out stinkers since 2019 nearly EVERY week, including off-season. 

Us fans are pissed.

Understandable but to expect the worst team to produce winning the next season isn’t feasible, what you want to see is improvement. You’re not gonna see that in preseason.

We stopped being good when we lost our franchise QB in Cam. It’s the problem with the nfl. Some teams luck I to a franchise QB like the colts did for some time Luck and some still play the game of find the QB. Bryce has a big season and this will be the test if he lasts in the league or not.

It was total ineptitude on the offense last night.   This was supposed to be dc strength

Oh come on now lol Plummer was bad lol

You saw some motion and movement in the back field and you saw DC running the ball which he said he would do. Plummer just couldn’t get it together In the pass game.

I’m excited for how the team looks

It’s just preseason  <—— We are here

If you think you know anything from week 1 of the regular season you don’t know ball

This team was never going to be competitive.  Only a fool would have been optimistic.

The goal of preseason and the first few weeks of regular season has always been to not look like absolute shite. They are still failing at this

I broke my rule on that week one stuff last year. My mantra for a long time has been ignore it. Exception for last year.

    • And that’s where a lot of people struggle to see it with Bryce Bryce is never physically going to “wow” anyone. Which will ultimately keep him out of that elite QB tier.  Burrow, Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Maye, Stafford People want to put Herbert in that tier because he’s the ultimate highlight type QB. Highlights in this day and age trump just about everything. I’m more inclined to put Dak in that category than Herbert.  Then there’s the tier before the elite group. That’s where I believe Young’s ceiling is. Which is fine. You better have a good team and a good coach around these types though.  I believe Bryce has a higher ceiling than Goff. Put Young on Detroit and that team has a higher ceiling. Would also have a lower floor but you’d take that.  Bryce doesn’t have many true ‘wtf’ moments. He definitely did his rookie year. Granted the bulk of his “supporting cast” and HC are out of the league now and were well on their way out when the arrived here.  Due to lack of physical traits and what made Bryce good at Bama this NFL thing was and still is going to take time with him. He’s adjusting to NFL defenses.  So sure, we’re kind of in a pickle. Do we keep Bryce and have something like the 10th best QB in the league paired with Canales whose ceiling is probably similar at his position or do we keep doing what we’ve been doing since 2017? This team has been an absolute mess since Tepper took over. He’s finally seeing some wins. I’m all for spending a day 3 pick every year on a QB with traits. But for the time being Young is definitely our best option in 2026 and it would be tough to imagine us having a better option at this point in 2027 as well I know how much the huddle loves charts but this wasn’t happening his rookie year. This chart is 2 weeks old but point remains. It’s also why I said Dalton would be useless against Buffalo. Bryce has done a real good job at avoiding sacks this year and then making something happen. Bryce is fully capable of giving you those 4-5 big plays you need from a QB a game. Those 4-5 big plays just look a lot different than the 4-5 big highlight type plays you get from those physically gifted QB’s
    • 5 games without a turnover, the defense has surprised me a lot this year. Second to last in sacks, yet still getting the job done, impressive. 
    • Dave “Uncanny” Canales His choices are often inexplicable, but work absurdly well about half the time.
