Watching 2024 week 1 Cannales Presser again

[Newtcase]

Watch a few minutes of this again and imagine he's talking about today's game.  It's eery.

He was pretty quick to bench Young last time. Problem is he doesn’t have anyone to replace him with, we saw Andy slowed down a lot in just a few games. If he benches Bryce again he’s probably done, we’ll probably see Hooker before we see Bryce again if that happens. 

Dave has this whole nice guy thing but I get the feeling that he hates looking incompetent especially after publicly supporting him all offseason. We probably wouldn’t have seen him last year if Andy didn’t get hurt.

The only plus from here is over the course of the rest of the season Canales is either going to reveal himself to be the guy we hired him to be or he is going to flounder like Bryce has.

[Bear Hands]

If his job is on the line, I think you can only really give a performance like today 3-4 weeks max in year 3 for a 1.01.

I’m not sure Dave is on the hot seat. I think Bryce has the shorter leash. Dave nor Morgan drafted Bryce. Think they will get a shot to draft their own QB and let the chips fall where they may from there. I still think Canales has a chance to be a successful coach here, but there are going to be a lot of bumps and growing pains along the way. Evero and Bryce will be shown the door before Canales.

That’s what my more practical side tells me. But if Tepper feels extra embarrassed, then who knows

[Super Grateful]

the thing that worries me is that since Tepper has a rep for firing coaches, I think he will give Dave longer than he deserves. Sadly, a lot of this has to do with Evero who should not have been retained. Dave seems like a nice, cool guy but his rah rah youth pastor shtick isn't working as an NFL HC. Especially paired with a youth pastor QB.

I mean most of these press conferences by losing coaches sound the same. They made more plays, missed opportunities, gotta get off the field on 3rd down, etc.

I've never liked this carousel.  GM/Coach/QB carousel that is.  When you cycle through them there's always a scapegoat.  We've had 3 GMs, 7 Head coaches (including interims), and 9 different quarterbacks (starting) since Tepper bought the team.  By and large this has been rotational with coaches inheriting quarterbacks, or GMs inheriting coaches or even worse GMs not picking their coaches.  It's just terrible organizational hierarchy all the time, very dysfunctional.

Hire your GM, let him hire his coach and get the players that coach says he need for his vision.  Create top down accountability.  Cannales was hired to make Bryce look like a good draft pick, if he can't do that then he's failed at the thing he had to have sold himself on.  

Morgan was a head scratcher from day one.  A hold over from the Fitterer mistakes, certainly no history of success as an executive.  Has always felt like a yes man for Tepper or a blindfolded visions of going young everywhere and letting them learn on the job.  Just terrible, terrible organizational vision in a league being dominated by real professionals.

Yeah no doubt, the eery part is it could almost be the same game.  Starts off talking about three turnovers and it tracks pretty close as it goes on.

Canales' presser next year week 1 if we keep him and Bryce:

[HPPantherzfan]

Did he not talk to the press last night?  I missed it

[PanthersNCSU]

Canales will get the chance to pick his QB next year. Unless Tepper goes full blown Tepper and hires Belicheck or some poo.

Canales is not on the hotseat as of right now. 

If Bryce fails, the plan is for Canales and Morgan to get a QB shot in either the draft or FA.
