.why do the Panthers always seem to have such a difficult time properly evaluating talent ? if you have a player who has started since 2023 & in that time have amassed a mountain of film for reference & also seen on a regular basis in practice.then yes most defenitely going into year 3 you should have a pretty good idea of what you have in a player .if not, then being an NFL GM might not be your actual cup of tea

It’s not just the panthers FO/coaches. Look at people on this board, or almost any of the talking heads. 

everyone has their different reasons for staying on this sinking ship. Whatever you speculate as the reason at the top of the Panthers organization probably has some truth in it.

when the owner picked the qb, and he picked a coach to train the qb, and everyone on the team knows you can’t criticize the qb, here we are.

Young wasn't drafted by Canales.  Canales shouldn't be held accountable until he can hire his own DC and draft his own QB.

thats all Tepper really wants more than anything else is to be is right about the Qb he played a huge role in trading up to #1 overall & selecting in Bryce Young .& he obviously does not care how many seasons he has to waste in an attempt to prove that he was righ.so yes its more about being right than winning with Tepper & that's why I talk so much about his ego when I talk about Tepper 

however , the problem with the Panthers is much greater than just the Qb.the Panthers currently have assembled once again the least talented roster in the NFL & as a result have way more many issues than just Qb moving forward..just saying

Dave Canales was always going to be a lottery ticket.  Odds are against success but there was a small, tiny, itty bitty chance it could pay out.

At this point he’s the crumpled scratchy lotto ticket you find in the parking lot.

DC was hired to fix Bryce young. He has failed at that. 

he has shown nothing that indicates he should be able to draft a qb or hire his own DC. 

Who would he even hire? Who do you think Canales can call up and convince to take this job? What personal relationship can he leverage? Is there another evangelical masturbation enthusiast he can holler at

There has never been a football coach alive or dead that could make Bryce Young a franchise quarterback just to be clear.

Implying that Bryce Young can be fixed?

but but Tepper sucks, Canales sucks, receivers can't get open or catch, o-line can't block, defense sucks, and the special teams sucks. A young QB can't thrive in those circumstances. 

The "boy wonder" will not thrive anywhere. Back up or mop up duty is his high ceiling.

Oh not at all. But that was definitely how he was presented and how he (at least partly) sold himself. 

you don’t just get to “hand it to the haters” and get to spend another first rounder.

Rivera went 6-10 and 7-9 his first two seasons with an infinitely more talented roster.  Recency bias is absolutely absurd with this fanbase.
