You could put Madden as coach with prime Tom Brady into this team, we will win 3-5 games.  It’s the culture… it’s toxic.  After 8 years, some folks still did not figure it out.

The official story is that Tepper is no longer so hands-on as he used to be.

If this is true, it's a start.

It's not a guarantee of improvement though. There are still a lot of things that would have to change.

No hands on?  Didn’t he just chewed Canales out after the game?  I’d say that’s pretty hands on.

If you can call being read the riot act constructive......

I once worked for a company that believed anyone who was competent in one area would automatically be competent in another (i.e. the Jerry Richardson philosophy). Management had absolutely zero understanding of what a skill set was.

As a result, what you got was people telling you that your performance wasn't good enough. But when you asked them how to make it better, they had no clue.

"Be better!"

"How?"

"I don't know! Just do it or else you're fired!"

Even though Richardson is long gone, I suspect there's still a lot of that kind of thing in the Panthers team culture.

We only know that they talked. The character and tone of the conversation is unknown.

My own take is that I believe him when he says he isn't meddling anymore. Unfortunately, the idea that this alone actually solves anything is fallacious.

To be fair SS was always a psycho with a giant ego. Haven't heard anything near that with Tillis. 

Some folks would tell you it's okay to have someone psycho on your team as long as they're good at what they do. 

My response is typically to apply that concept to a marriage and see if you still think it's a good idea 😳

As long as Tepper is the owner, the team is doomed to be below mediocre. He got rid of Steve Wilks because he was an alpha male. He only wants yes men, choir boys, and people that fit a certain profile. He refuses to let others lead. He is doomed to fail.

I’m not…. Dan Morgan is a GM last time I checked, not Tepper.  Manager should be talking to his employees, not managers manager.  When big boss talks to you, overstepping your manager, that’s either means your big boss don’t trust your manager or he’s meddling and sticks his nose into everything.  You pick.

Under Tepper they need to be well adjusted and not sycophants or the worst comes out. Wasn't that the year the staff went knives out?

I think Canales is safe no matter what. If he gets to select his own QB and he sucks next season that may be all she wrote. 
Evero should have been fired last season. I think Tepper has given Canales a long rope. 

He has chosen 3 and has no option behind Young this year. His coaching alone is enough to justify a firing if it keeps going the way it's going again. No need for a year 3 where he gets fired mid way for being who he was in year 1 and 2. That's like saying Evero deserved a year 3 after last year. It makes no sense logic wise. Plus he chose Young when he signed up for this while others walked.

      Dan Orlovsky on Bryce Young

      By Coheed · Posted

      I get what you’re saying but the reason I think his mentality underscores it all is that he did have legitimately solid and sometimes even good games at the end of last year after his bench, and against some good teams (PHI, Tampa, KC)   but that was only after the season was shot and everyone thought he was done for. then once he had to play a meaningful game on Sunday he crumbled right back to pre bench form. It’s like he’s only able to when it *doesnt* matter  But all just semantics tbh, we both agree that he ain’t it lol

      The Panthers’ Bryce Young Problem is Getting Old

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      I'm still a big Bryce supporter. I don't look much at his rookie year as that only deepened the hole he has to climb out of. I see this past game as the 1st of his 2nd year.  Judge him based off of his play after his benching.  No argument that is play those first two games last year were about as bad as it gets.  No question. This is the start of year 2 for Canales and he was out coaches against the Jags but I like his process and how he goes about things.  I like that he, Morgan and Tillis seem like a unit and on the same path. Saying we never should have drafted him based on his height and weight is a valid opinion but he was a universal top pick in the draft and elite talent coming out.  I have seen little evidence those are still issues.  He is physical enough to take some monster hits and I don't see a limit to his passing due to his height. The lack of arm strength is a tired argument.  He has the physical ability to make all the necessary NFL throws.   Of course he doesn't have the cannon Cam did coming out but he also doesn't have Cams accuracy and throwing with touch issues.  They are different players and Bryce has a ton of work to do just to be in Cams shadow. Bryce IS part of the problem but he isn't the problem.  His play the last half of the season last year was impressive and showed a ton of growth and improvement. Outside of Horn, Nola and Chuba the whole team and staff looked severely off and not ready.   If Dave calls a great game and other players play average NFL level football and Bryce still plays like this that is when we'll actually have as big an issue at QB as the haters believe. The issues are team wide and it's one game. Also, I like Tepper.

      WR drops

      By CRA · Posted

      They aren't credited with drops.   That's just PFF.  Not sure why they are still being pimped this hard when week 1 really highlights how bad they can be at times.  Especially when they manufactured Bryce's grade like they did.  Some 1984 stuff going on there....PFF telling folks not to believe their eyes and ears.
