Concerning Avg points per loss byPanthers HCs

Not an entirely fair comparison. Over the past 3 decades, rules have been changed to heavily favor offenses and to increase scoring. But the past 3 years have been blowouts.

More concerning is the Panthers have been down by 17+ (3 possessions) at half in 7 of Canales 21 games as HC. In fully one third of the games Canales has coached, the team has been DOA.

Ejero next job going to be arena league. They all play his style of defense there anyway.

That's honestly even a bit misleading because year in and year out we see Carolina score early and then get completely shut down after about the 2nd drive until garbage time/the opponent goes into super soft prevent. that margin would probably be at least 2-3 points higher if not for garbage time scoring.

Now every team has blowouts and gets padded by garbage time. However, games going all the way back to mid 2021 and to a lesser degree 2020 (moreso that teams started sitting on Teddyball that year and taking away the short pass) have followed this predictable game script. To me, that's a sign as much on terrible strategy/creativity as much as personnel. Which is the chicken and which is the egg can be debated.

I think it tells the tale

As do  the Ws and Ls

i hope i am wrong but Canales’ Mr Rogers persona is not working and neither are his  play calls   

who knows, however,  he came in as HC with no seeming control of Evero  and knowing what Young is and how limiting he would be on the playbook

No matter the reason, his team folds and once down by a TD, it is hopeless.  If they get punched in the mouth, it is over 

it does not bode well

Reich got so screwed over.  Brand new staff and a rookie Bryce Young, yet got the shortest leash.

[Jon Snow]

So what you're saying is when we suck we really suck.

[Waldo]

I wonder what historically bad crews look like in comparison.

[mc52beast]

Canales scripts the first offensive drive then it’s nothing but chaos after that. Also, how freaking long has this team struggled to get plays in to where they only have a few seconds to get the play off? It’s a dumpster fire everywhere you look and it’s hard to say how long it will take to turn this franchise around.

[PleaseCutStewart]

Lol, average margin of defeat of 18.2 ppg. Holy poo that has to be like historically bad right there for Canales

Not. Its fluctuated by a point or two since Capers. Hardly any difference and especially not to explain an extra 8 points per loss.

Scoring averages are higher now than 30 years ago. 

Should have been clearer. The past 3 years of Bryce have been blowouts.

Was referring to the other coaches, not DC.
