Canales was awful today

He was awful, but at the same time based on what ive seen and his mentality, he looks like he's gonna learn from this. Seems like he's also trying a lot of stuff while we don't really have the roster to compete for playoffs. 

Agree 💯. This is going to be one long preseason with the roster we have currently, not to mention the growing list of injuries to the starters.

Dude our defense just sucks. Hard to get a good offensive gameplan when you are already down a lot of points and you are forced to just throw the ball. And other team knows it.

Thst has nothing to do with Dalton looking like young. The defense was just as bad last week but the game was still relatively close. We were up 7-0 and then got outscored 36-3 by an awful team. The coaching staff is responsible for this result.

The Bears defense is actually good.

Injuries.  A lot of them.

Wallace, a rookie, calling the plays and the Bears knew it.  That was the reason for all the hurry up.

Canales isn't the reason we lost.  He is the next logical person fans can blame.

PS.  There isn't any questions about Bryce that the Panthers and Canales haven't already been telling everyone.  If people don't want to believe him, that's on them.

There were a number of mitigating circumstances you have to acknowledge.

At the same time. This was a matchup that our team should have been circling as a game to show up big in even if we didn't win. To say the least the Bears and the Panthers are connected for all the wrong reasons and this was a game we really needed to look at least competent in as a sign of goodwill to the fanbase. Today was a really bad look for Canales and Co no matter how you might want to rationalize it. No excuses.

I made my rationalizations ahead of the season. He wasn’t ready, he was hired knowing that, I was for giving him the year to learn before I get on his ass.  Sticking to it.

They got cute. Instead of sticking with the run with a RB that was gashing it, they wanted to showcase their air attack, but it wasn’t there, repeatedly.! And they still stuck with it.

Incompletions on first down put us behind the sticks. It’s like they refused to run on 1st down. Andy was off. The whole line was off, but Chuba was still beasting. Dude could have run for 150 yards and 2 TDs easily, and the game would have been competitive. On first and goal, he got 1 touch. 

Something was off. There was just a weird vibe. Energy wasn’t there, like something else was going on.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
