Assistant special teams coach Darren Bates returned to his podcast, Raw Room, and spent ~15min early in the episode reviewing the Panthers' season. Panthers' portion starts at the timestamp.

For folks that have problems with XL's accent (or accents in general), put on closed captions because DB's Memphis accent is probably going to beat the dog poo out of you. 💀

Love coach Bates, I actually watched RR before he was a coach for us too. Love his energy, and you see him on the sideline every game chirping guys up. He's got that dawg energy!

This team did not quit. That tells me everything I need to know about Canales. We got our guy at HC and QB, lets get it! 

 

Even if Bryce isnt "the guy" he is playing well enough now to be at least a placeholder until we are ready to compete. 

Lets see him put a full season of good ball together before claiming him to be the guy.

Nah, IMO he is the guy. He just needed to get his mental right and he did. Not worried, that boy ballin.

Agreed, and I think that really comes with alignment of vision for the team too. It's been spoken ad nausium, but when we tried last year to blank check the best coaches available at their position, regardless of their relationship or fit philosophy-wise with Reich, and it was a train wreck. Not defending Reich, but I bet if he got to pick his coaches, it might have worked out better cuz you can't keep changing things mid-season and expect the team to be on board, especially with all the infighting and rats in the room sneaking off to Tepper. One voice, one vision where everyone is on the same page, even when we were down 1-7, they never gave up, and kept pounding the drum of Canales vision, and they eventually turned to page.

Here's hoping we keep this momentum into next season, I'm feeling glass half-full on it.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
