You HAVE to give Canales more time. You can't keep burning through coaches. It's already the least desirable job in the league.

Why is it the least desirable job? Aside from lack of talent, we have an owner that has admitted he makes his football opinions very well known in the front office. He's made extremely poor executive decisions and continues to try to pretend he's the smartest guy in the room. 

JMO but this is the least desirable job in the NFL because we have an owner that can't help himself exercising a football "expertise" that's been repeatedly bested by a fan message board.

And here I am thinking it was the bear mascot's fault the whole time.

He needs to get 3 years minimum.

I disagree. I predict he will be fired either after 2025(agree with the top 5ish pick take) or early in 2026.

TBD if Morgan goes first or not.

I don't believe we are out of our chaos era yet.

Here's the thing: there's absolutely no guarantee that works. 

What this team needs above all else is talent and stability. 

You can't get talent if you keep going "all in" on bandaid fixes. 

You can't have stability if you keep turning over the entire front office and coaching staff.

Along those lines, and it is not to downplay the two guards Morgan bought, but I was thinking you don't need superman at every position. First of all, how can you do that? Can't. But the point is you need good players on the OL and teach them to work together. Teamwork and execution is a major equalizer. 

To your point, you don't get that without some stability. And continuity. It is really clear.

Some things don't change, getting to the quarterback is number one priority. But no half measure like Burns. I don't mind that we didn't make that investment, we didn't compound our mistake on that one.

Especially with no Luke and TD second line, we at least need a faux Peppers and Rucker to go beside DB. A'Shawn looks much better in a sidekick role. Everybody does. It is kind of like when we jumped Theilen with Diontae, everyone got better.

Call me crazy, but so far Tepper has stayed to the side, our draft is looking promising, and if we hadn't been cursed with injuries we would be in a MUCH better spot.  Things are better than last year, period.  DC had the stones to end the BY disaster when it needed to be ended.  Even if BY ends up starting again at the end of the year, DC showed no one is above the team.

Pete Carroll was an extremely underappreciated coach.  If the Seahawks weren't such a rival to us back in the day maybe more of us would share that opinion.  We are headed in the correct direction.  Buffalo, Detroit, Washington, even San Fran had extended periods of struggle before they figured it out.  I'd put DC ahead of many of the coaches most of those teams had during their struggles.  DC and DM being able to pick their own defensive coordinator might be the missing link for full alignment of the team vision.

My 2 cents....

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
