We have to give Canales a chance.

Canales has to make lemonade with a lemon at QB. He’s not the problem. The improvements to the line and playmakers were apparent in the offseason and it showed today. Guys were open and the offensive line held up (sacks were on corner blitzes). 
 

its my own hypothesis that Canales knows his QB1 sucks, and is doing all he can to show Tepper that. So now were 1-0 in that department.

Reich got fired for the second time in one year because he sucks at coaching 

He may well suck at coaching but Knute Rockne could not have done anything with that situation. 
And he was nonsuck enough to know Bruce belonged on the bench. Of course I could see that and am no ex NFL QB coaching lifer.

I'm actually worried that Canales will be judged on how "he's not able to fix Bryce" rather than his actual system

There is a mentality represented here that would go there. But I don’t think reasonable people would do that before seeing him in a better situation. 
It is as hard to find a great HC as it is a QB so you want to be certain. 
To me, it is a parallel to the Bruce situation. Bad situation for judging in year one. And he has a better chance than Bruce does.

Yeah you tend to see overlaps. Like Rhule stayed and Hurney was kicked out, then Rhule got the hot seat, then back to Fitterer who got canned, now Canales/Morgan are in their new roles together and I think the hot seat shifts to Bryce. I don't think Canales gets the boot until it shows his system doesn't work with an additional QB. Bryce is the one in the hot seat now. 

EDIT: HOWEVER!- Canales has to be willing to pull Bryce and show that with Dalton. He can't just ride the tide with this every week or Tepper will fire everybody including the janitors.

Well….. he has designed the O for a college QB. Sold out to it I bet.

Makes it harder to just slip a pocket guy in, I would think. I surely don’t know what they have done in that regard. But that would be my caveat. 
 

and good way to put it, overlaps.

I would argue that Dalton (even at 36) is equally mobile as Bryce.

You must like to argue lol. 

I'm just saying, I've never seen an athletic Bryce Young scramble in the NFL. He dodges, gets past the LOS and falls down, he couldn't even slide properly last year. 

Many moons ago, Dalton could move around a decent bit. He wasn't a scrambler but he could get where he needed to. Old fella should start his calf and hammy stretches this week.

My first thought was I bet his knees creak. When I got in my 30s is when I had to go home and ice my knees after a softball game. 

I saw Bruce slip a couple of people last year and get to the sticks but he does not need to be doing that. Besides injury, there is not much ball security if they can get a hand on him.

Listen, we’re all some kind of professional here. We all have jobs we all have managers we all have reports. By this point most of us are old enough that’s we can smell bullshit. 
 

every one has met a new manager brought in, or a consultant, or seen someone get promoted, and gone “unnnnnnnnnn”

and then there’s that first moment of adversity and the person completely crumbled and everyone knew it was going to happen except the person that promoted or hired him. 

In what professional setting could someone say “we knew it would be a long journey to become us” after a failure of that magnitude and not be laughed out of the room.

The sad part is, Bryce likely gets one more season.  He'll get the "new coaching staff, new system" excuse to survive another season.

there is no way in hell any professional coaching staff will run bryce out there for a 3rd year if he looks like he did yesterday.  Hell I think they pull young when we are sitting at the inevitable 0-4.

    • take a  look around the league at other young Qb's around Bryce Young's age group  such as Drake Maye , Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix , CJ Stroud  & Caleb Williams who at the time like Bryce Young they also were drafted also joined teams with a losing record .the only difference with these Qb's is after joining their teams with a losing record they led those same teams to a winning record in a very short period of time .it's simply what you call a game changer & or elite Qb's & then take a  look at  the other side of the coin you have Qb's such as Trey Lance, Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, Justin Fields  & Anthony Richardson also like Bryce Young all first round picks who instead of winning either did not play or led their teams to a losing record while playing  just because Bryce Young was a #1 overall pick does not necessarily mean that he will become improve with time if history tells you anything it's matter of fact just the opposite . lBryce Young who has an overall record of 14-30 & wildly inconsistent & never in the history pf the NFL has a Qb 5'10" or shorter had a successful carrer as Qb in the NFL  you have to ignore alot of FACTS & be really ignorant to the FACT to think Bryce Young is the future at Qb if anything history is telling you exactly what ?..just saying

    • to me these two signings were so bad for the Panthers at the time of our young team. "Sean Gilbert was signed by the Carolina Panthers on April 21, 1998, after being traded from the Washington Redskins in a deal that sent the Panthers two first-round picks (Nos. 5 and 12) to Washington. The Panthers then re-signed Gilbert to a 7-year, $46.5 million contract extension on the same date"  The other was Jason Peters being picked in the First round of the 1998 draft. "Peter played for the Panthers from 1998 to 2001, appearing in 38 games (starting 20) and recording 88 total tackles, 7.5 sacks, and 1 fumble recovery His NFL career was cut short by a chronic neck stinger, forcing him to retire after the 2001 season
