How Brian Callahan manages QBs

Disclaimer - I would take Levis in a heartbeat over Bryce Young.  Cannon for an arm and actually played decent in both games this year but has a knack for making dumb turnovers.  

Callahan is who we really needed, he doesn't coddle him, called him out privately and publicly.   I applaud him for this

Titans head coach Brian Callahan isn’t losing any sleep about blowing his top on Sunday.

Quarterback Will Levis’s decision to try a lateral while under pressure in the first half of a 24-17 loss to the Jets led to a turnover and Callahan responded by asking Levis “what the f—k” he was doing as Levis came off the field. After the game, Callahan called it a “dumb” play and noted that it was the second straight week that Levis has turned the ball over in that fashion.

On Monday, Callahan said he wasn’t remorseful for how he reacted.

“I don’t regret my feelings about it and how I felt in the moment,” Callahan said, via Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. “I am generally pretty composed. That one just set me off, and I, I’m human like everybody else. I have blackout moments where I’ll lose my mind.”

It’s generally not a winning plan to employ a quarterback who creates blackout moments when coaches lose their minds, so Levis will need to clean up the play that’s led to five turnovers already this season.

It was refreshing and 100% preferred callhan over Canales. 

Panthers cuked that one up by letting him out the door the first time. He was scheduled to have a 2nd interview the day after the titans one, but they wouldnt allow him to leave. Morgan moved fast to try and save face by hiring his buddy mr.happy soon after. 

Just another huge mistake in the recent panthers history.

Too soon to bash Canales. Let's see how he does with a QB who can throw it farther than 10 yards.

SO you have seen enough of Bryce Young now??

In honestly- it doesnt matter who is the HC for the next two years, might as well be someone like canales. Much like frank, he knew after 15mins of watching young practice what his faith was. No HC in history is winning with this group of lower level players.

    • He has a lot to work on for sure but he has been a huge boost to the offense. It's nice to finally have an elite WR.
    • We have been on that roller coaster ride already. He needs to have streaks far longer than a couple of good games.  People raved about the Green Bay game in 2023. Which was mostly a good 2nd half and hot 4th quarter.  Ask me what happened the next four games, if you don’t remember. or just go look them up. There isn’t much to see.  The end of last year had some good things and one excellent outing, and look up what followed that, which you won’t have to but he came out this year looking like week 1 2023.  Now he is on a game and a half streak, against a bad Miami team and lowest rated defense in the league - at home.  This is the reality in the big picture. He needs to break his pattern, in a positive way. 
    • This "noodle arm" characterization just baffles me. There's way more involved in a successful downfield passing attack than simple air yards. Let's take two stat-lines for throws of 40+ air yards (no YAC) from the last 3 seasons: 5/29 (17%) for 3 TDs and 2 INTs 1/9 (11%) for 1 TD So with three times the number of attempts, you net +6% completion percentage, the same TD rate, and 2 arm punt INTs to boot. The first player is Mahomes, the second is Bryce. Clearly Bryce attempts these throws at a much lower rate, but his success rate is quite similar to one of the most talented downfield throwers of all time. The takeaway isn't that Bryce is Mahomes-lite (if he was his usage rate for these would be much higher) but that these throws by their very nature are extremely difficult, very scheme-specific, and even an elite thrower can have wildly differing success rates season by season. And before we get into the complaints of cherry-picking, this is far more substantial information than the various insinuations that Bryce struggles to even get the ball 20 yards downfield, much less 40+. And the wildest part of this is that every time Mahomes threw a bomb over the last 3 season, 83% of the time the end result was failure, yet many Chiefs fans complain that he isn't taking even more shots downfield.
