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

I don't know if Canales is any good as a head coach yet, but he has done well with our non-XL receivers. I personally think he is handicapped by a key personnel and that is partly out of his hands for the next couple weeks.

He's also very young, so will absolutely have head scratchers and growing pains. But outside of Wilks he's probably already out best HC since Rivera, which isn't saying much, and imo his ceiling is unknown vs Wilks' which unfortunately seems well known.

Wow that’s actually really cool chatgpt can do that

Although, as we know Arizona sat in soft zone the entire second half. So there was a lot of dinking and dunking, but that’s the right thing to do in that situation. 

Week 1 pass chart doesn’t look bad. He pushes the ball downfield more than several other quarterbacks I’ve watched. For some reason the huddle thinks other quarterbacks are constantly throwing 60 yard bombs. That is absolutely not the case. Some quarterbacks aren’t taking any deep shots at all.

Most of us are advocating for him to at least push the ball down field as much as he did last year, which he isn't really. I'm not super interested in all his incompletions beyond 15 because we all see the wounded ducks.

Of the overwhelming majority of young starters he has more attempts and far fewer completions deep. The only comparison in raw numbers is Bo Nix but of his 3 completions beyond 15, 2 are 35+ yards, so he is threatening deep.

I don't need that. I just need him to be doing something more than 5-10 yard passes in front of the sticks. If he doesn't, our running game will continue to suffer, too.

What QBs threaten downfield less than Bryce Young?   

If there is one, it's got to be some weird cherry pick that doesn't compare to BY.  Like the Eagles hammering the ball on the ground and playing D.

What QB has less offensive firepower to threaten downfield than Bryce? It’s a team issue not a Bryce issue.

The term is “threaten.” As in make the defense think about it, not pull off da bomb flip every play  

you don’t need prime Randy moss to toss a go route to the sideline to keep a safety honest. 

you just need a wr to run deep and a qb with the arm strength and accuracy to….hang on I’m getting an update

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...

      Canes vs Leafs 7pm

      Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning.

      The team store should re-release Dan Morgan's jersey.

      I like Morgan's approach but I'll wait for a few winning seasons before giving too much praise.
