Dave Canalas is a bum

hes doing what everyone wants him to do while at the same time growing this team.  Tank. Carolina is not going to the playoffs this year. 

Do you think he would have abandoned the run if Carolina had been a better team? The Bucs had one of the worst run offenses last year. I am beginning to think it wasn't because the RBs were bad but because Canales just doesn't see them as the focal point of his offense. Canales wants to pass. Problem is I think Young would be better, much better in a run first offense. I imagine the perfect offense would be like the one the Chargers have.

I’m not overly concerned if a rookie head coach makes some fixable time management or play-calling mistakes in his first year, especially on a team that was already destined for the bottom of the standings. Those issues are fixable, and I’ll only start worrying if they become a consistent problem in years 2 or 3.

 

What matters to me is how the team has progressed from the start of the season to now. From what I’ve seen, after being benched earlier, our undersized QB has steadily improved week by week, even managing to make games competitive despite the team’s flaws. The coaching staff, led by Dave Canales, has taken what seemed like a long-shot rookie and helped him develop into at least a serviceable quarterback, with the potential to become our long-term QB1.

 

This season, all I wanted to see was improvement and evidence that Canales has a plan that works—and so far, that’s exactly what we’re getting. The team has shown consistent progress as the season winds down, and on top of that, we’re likely securing a good draft position without needing to reach for another rookie QB.

 

Canales’ development of this team has been top-notch. That’s what I care about most, and he deserves credit for it. Now, if he uses the offseason to refine his game-day management, we’ll be in great shape moving forward.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
