I just think it's remarkable how Dave Canales turned Bryce around. I don't know if it was intentional, but clearly benching him and letting him cool off was an excellent move. I think Dave being coy with who will be starting has also been intentional. My personal theory is this is two fold: 1- it takes the pressure of Bryce to feel like he has to be the savior  and 2- it doesn't just hand bryce the keys without letting him know that just because you're the first overall pick doesn't mean you are guaranteed to be a starter 

When Canales was hired we all hoped he would get the most out of Bryce, he has done that in a very circuitous manner

I am glad for Young, the franchise and the long suffering fan base 

no one wins if Young collapses 

he really needs to continue to ball out

very winnable game at home Sunday…with what looks to be a near national audience 

panthers need to win this game. Draft position be damned 

I just wonder how much of Canales’s playbook is altered for Young…and what happens when NFL defenses shut down Young’s preferences and read his tendencies on film…can we adjust

I never lost hope that he could turn it around. But he definitely needed to be benched after week 2. Just to be able to sit back and watch and work on your mechanics in practice/behind the scenes.

Anyone who’s played sports knows how tough it is to try and implement changes during competitive play. You get in your head and think more than play. I believe that’s where he was at. Trying to focus on this footwork, or reading that coverage, or not rolling out this way, where there was no room to actually react and play QB. I play tennis and at the end of a bad day of practice, sometimes it’s best to just call it a day and try again tomorrow instead of putting your head down and pushing through.

My honest take is diontae johnson was not the only player who threaten Dave if he kept BY at QB. 

Again this current BY is NOT the BY of last year and first two weeks, just a totally different player. 

I feel the part where he needs credit is he didn't commit to BY even when BY was ballin/well. He wanted BY to take over and claim the QB without him answering the question.

Plus the game planning and play calling has been on point this last few weeks. Dave is a rookie at this too. Plus much like BY, I had nearly 0.0 faith in either, but that number is around 20 and I longer feel tortured watching. That's huge form where each was.

totally agree with every point, particularly the last one

      Ravens safety out for year. Torn Achilles… Panthers may need to do something

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. Nick Scott was awful last year. Like, even for a franchise that hasn't historically invested in that position, it stood out for how awful it was. If he sees meaningful snaps at S again we're cooked.  Maybe he has value for ST, but I certainly hope we can upgrade. Jordan Fuller, who was by all accounts an Evero guy, was almost as bad. Xavier Woods was bad, but not complete garbage. Still did not want him back. Those 3 guys seriously may have been the worst S group in the NFL. And they all were brought in, especially Fuller, as good fits for this system. Everyone knocks the defensive line, and they deserve a lot of blame, too, but so, so many times our safeties inability to tackle let 4-5 yard runs turn into 10+. And it happened over and over and over again if you watch the film. Honestly, Demani Richardson was the only S by the end of the year I remember making positive plays. I have no issue with Richardson being in the mix and/or competing to be a starter, but we still need another S desperately IMHO who has actually played meaningful snaps in the NFL. The only caveat/excuse for our secondary was the fact our pass rush was nonexistent for large stretches last year. Maybe that helps with coverage, but I dont see how that makes any of these guys better at tackling.  I know it somewhat feels like piling on at this point, but I feel 100% confident in saying this was the worst tackling team in franchise history. The 70ish yard pass play we gave up to Jamarr Chase where he ran through and past everyone in the secondary has to be up there in terms of most embarrassing plays I've ever seen. I can't imagine how embarrassed Kuechly must have been watching from the booth... I think bringing back Evero was a mistake, but for a team that has had nothing but change over the past 5 years, I'm willing to see this through. I definitely think we added significantly to the floor of this defense with the additions we made. I dont think Evero has any further excuses if he cant field a unit that can at least somewhat hold their own. Fixing the safety play is going to be a big part of that.

      Play Nikishin

      While I would like to see Nikishkin play, I definitely wouldn't want it to be for Chatty who is a lockdown defender like Slavin

      2 teams with sub 2% odds winning it within a span of less than 20 years. Quite unbelievable.
