It was Tepper.  You take Canales post game talk + Monday meeting + benching = Tepper. Then the fact Canales refuses to comment on what went into it and the convo with Tepper speaks volumes.  Because if your owner had nothing to do with it....you EASILY could just say that.  But he can't.  And isn't.   Reading the tea leaves under Tepper has been easy.  People just overthink it. 

which I think is fine.  the benching is the right call in reality.  

but as I joked in another thread, the actual red flag in all this....is the Canales QB whisperer stuff IMO was always overstated bologna.  Geno rebounded because he went to long standing winning org in Seattle.  Baker just returned to being Baker.  Argued that this offseason.   Canales had all offseason with Bryce....and made Bryce worse.   Now, I don't think he NEEDS to be the legendary QB whisperer he was painted coming in by the fanbase.  But that narrative probably should be put to bed for a bit. 

Young does not have a single NFL level athletic trait.

At this point I'd need some convincing that he has a single NFL level mental trait either.

TL;DR ain't no QB to whisper.

Texans had Bryce ahead of Stroud.

Meeting with your boss isn't meddling.

Coaches and GMs have made all of our draft picks.

We did land on the moon.

9/11 was not an inside job.

Dunning-Kruger is rampant with NFL fans.

The sun will shine again in Panther land.

It could be that Canales is a new HC and doesn't have his "coach speak" game up to par yet, but I was surprised how matter of fact and honestly final the decision sounded. I expected something along the lines of "We want to give Bryce a chance to take a step back and be able to sit and learn without the pressure of playing right now. Andy Dalton gives us the best chance to win right now and we think it'll benefit Bryce to watch how an established vet operates in a starting role." But the way Canales put it out there it honestly sounds like we've flat out turned the page. 

Spot on. In a very tough situation I though Canales handled himself well. It had become painfully clear that Bryce was the problem not the personnel or the scheme.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
