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....

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.

      It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter.

      QB 2026 (For the Young Haters)

      By Mage · Posted

      The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
