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.

I just wonder what he will have to say about it in the postgame. Probably more interesting than the game.

Except now he’ll have answer 50 Bryce questions. 

[Mr. Scot]

Canales wasn't good, but he is still a rookie coaching his first few games. 

Too early to have a complete read on him either way.

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.

[JawnyBlaze]

Yea this was a poorly coached game, particularly the offensive playcalling. But it’s one game. We’ll see how the rest of the season goes. 

[Loyalty4Life]

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.

Few HCs outside of Andy Reid can do both

Dave is no andy reid  …he is  Not a seasoned coordinator and he is a new head coach

gotta give  him  a chance to grow into,  or out of, some thing 

let’s be far as well, the drafted players he inherited leave a little bit to be desired

This is what happens when the League finally gets some tape of you. I expect a different looking offense next game.

He’s a rookie too.  Hopefully he can identify it, understand it and learn from it.

IMO he still looks like the best HC prospect we’ve had in years.  Not to mention this roster wasn’t great to begin with and with injuries it’s down right ugly.

Rhule started off 3-2

[Gapanthersfan]

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.
