You see, this is why I'm more critical of Dave Canales

This is truly the first time my brain wanders to what we’d look like if we had kept Wilks. Not that it matters, but I wish I could peer into that window for a minute and see what’s up. 

Wilks wasn't going to change this teams trajectory. Thats just fans wishful thinking. He's not a headcoach plain and simple.

I think some of y'all are just trying to rationalize his fúcked up decisions, but I could be wrong. I don't think I am, but I could be. Everything seems kind of murky, but I still say Canales is responsible.

"There was obviously criticism, but Panthers head coach Dave Canales never wavered.

"So even after a rough season for a defense in a constant state of personnel flux, Canales knew who he wanted calling the plays for him on that side of the ball — defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero."

 

Canales is the culprit in my eyes.

 

"I've played against this defense, I've played against it in Seattle with the Rams for a bunch of years, I played against it twice last year," Canales said. "I know what this defense will look like, and I'm committed to that. Ejiro's committed to that, so it's about developing the players that we've brought in and evaluating our schemes. So we have to be able to look at our schemes and be really critical of all those things as well."

Yeah I mean maybe. But I also don’t think any HC in the league comes out and trash talks their DC even if behind closed doors he doesn’t want him. I think the cracks started showing last week with his comments over playing younger guys on D

Jim Caldwell was a decision maker in Morgan and Canales happening.   It’s like we suddenly forgot all the Game of Thrones reporting and the fact a massive % of the Frank era never left the building.   
 

Every new regime is rooted in the old one.  It's a death spiral.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
