Officially worse than Matt Rhule

I think he could be a better HC than playcaller. Not sure why he abandoned putting the QB under center as much after the first drive - until he brought Dalton back under center at the end. FYI, those were the 2 TD drives. Bryce missed a couple of throws. But it wasn't as bad as I thought when I was watching live. He was successful for almost every playaction roll out from under center. And then we stopped doing it. The Patriots didn't stop it all game. They actually had a few "DJ Johnson-level" lose contain ends.

Coaches like Canales have to be paired w/ a gunslinger or elite QB.  It's a story as old as time.  Weak boring offenses need the aggressive chunk pass plays to compliment their O.   You saw that in Tampa.  You see that in his entire coaching tree. 

this is the frustrating part about the Panthers.  All this stuff is day 1 stuff and he waste years figuring out the knowns. 

Well he knew when he accepted the job who his QB was so he can fug off with that excuse.

Of course.

Although it is necessary to wonder just how far those conversations went in the hiring process. As in when they discussed the plans to "fix" Bryce Young how much leeway does Bryce Young ultimately have if he performs poorly and does Dave Canales have full autonomy to bench him when he feels it's time to make that call? Right now to me it looks like it's Tepper's decision. And if that is indeed the case we're boned no matter who the coach is.

Probably why Ben Johnson and others didn’t even bother to interview

He already bowed out after interviewing the year before. I think that was the year he skipped out on Washington after saying their new ownership group acting like they were running an NBA team. I think the Panthers leaked he had a bad interview or some BS.

it's not an excuse really.  It's just acknowledging realities.  And it really appeared Carolian acknowledged it and moved on from Bryce Young SUPER quick a mere 2 games into the Canales era. 

Morgan fugged up by not trading Bryce then.  They let him back on the field and they screwed themselves with this pointless year.  I blame Tepper/Morgan more than Canales. 

Canales is what he is.  We know what we were getting.  We knew his tree. He was also blunt about what he was.  From the jump, Bryce didn't fit.   Seemed like they acknowledged it last year and then went stupid.

    • The irony is the vast majority of this board are long-suffering Panthers fans.  It is inherent in the nature of it being a message board.  We are a prehistoric relic of glory days past.  The new fans are all on Reddit, discord, and all that other poo.
    • Again, it’s not about that single play.  Me saying that defines his era is reflective of 2.5 years of work.  Yes, Zavala played a big part in that failure of a play, but as the commentators mentioned, Bryce also has to get tf back as soon as he snaps it.  He has always had more issues operating from under center as well.  That all ties in to the fact that for over 2.5 years, he has these inexplicable plays that you never see happen anywhere else.  I’ve been on this Earth four decades and watching or playing football for three of them, and I do not recall ever seeing that happen before.  Have I seen someone fumble the snap in 4th?  Yes.  Have I seen someone try to escape pressure after getting the snap and falling over or flailing around until they were sacked?  Sure.  Throw a pick?  Yes.  Fumble after getting the snap?  Yes.  Lots of bad things can and have happened.  Not even getting out from under the center, falling on your back, then looking like you can’t figure out how to get up until you’re touched down?  Never.  So even when other players are involved in the fug ups since Bryce has been the QB, the point is, it’s some intangible quality that is present with him at QB.  Things happen that shouldn’t happen.  Inexplicable fug ups are the norm. And again, I I fully considered we had 3+ mins and the defense was playing well when I posted it.  I even believed the with the way Bryce was playing outside of the 4th down flubs, that it was likely we could win…  and I am ecstatic we won.  But again, the point of this thread is the play was representative of a much bigger and persistent problem.  Look how great we felt after getting over .500 and then had a gimme win at home against a fuging 1-8 team.  Bryce comes out and doesn’t even show up while getting outplayed by several magnitudes against a 27 year old 2nd round pick in his second start.  That is fuging inexplicable and should never fuging happen.  Brian St. Pierre would’ve looked like fuging Joe Montana in that scenario.  Dameyune Craig would’ve looked like Mahomes.  But it was likely Bryce didn’t even show up.  That’s where this thread comes from.  As good as winning today feels, do I trust him to come back out and do it again next week, or ever again?  Absolutely not.  And that’s the problem.
    • He threw long most of his college career.  He is a superb deep ball passer.
