Is Canales digging his own grave?

The decision to keep the charade going between Chubba and Rico would be the start.

His lack of "dawg" in him.

Questionable play calling.

All of this and more seem to point to he's not the one we need running the show.

WFNZ and some other podcasts notably Al Wallace were incredibly vocal about how DC was massively out coached on Sunday

He has a team with no QB at .500 in season 2.

Just how high are our standards after a decade of basement dwelling?

You have to crawl before you can walk. Walk before you can run.

I get what you are saying.  Feeding off bottom dwelling teams is not going to be the highwater mark. 

I like him, he's had some good games and almost pulled of some incredible upsets but almost doesn't count.  I just don't feel like he has much more to give.

Look at Belicheat without Brady.

I refuse to fully judge Canales until he has a QB.

Don’t disagree 

He inherited Young

However, consider the decision to not get a better backup QB and practice squad QB falls squarely  on him   He is both HC and OC 

it isn't like he doesn't see Dalton everyday for  the past 2 years

Wouldn't all of this point to him being the one thats running the show?

He's the one calling the plays lol

Didn’t even try for Harbaugh and Vrabel, granted, we don’t know the whole story with those two, maybe they didn’t even want to actually be here (who can blame them) but settling in Canales…oof

Canales is just inconsistent week to week sometimes, we see a lot of good and a lot of bad. I think that can just be chalked up to growing pains of a probably too young NFL Head Coach. I still like him, even with his faults, and he deserves to pick his own QB for some continuity with the team.

This. He became a HC too early. If we want to see who he can be, we have to give him a few years to figure it out. 

It took Ron a few years and he had much more experience than DC.

Oh, and he needs a QB.

    • This is where we begin our "slide" similar to Matt Rhule's 2nd season Panthers L 35-9
    • Everyone is seeing it now, but nobody wanted to listen to me when I was saying all these things for well over a year leading into this draft.  And it's not that it's sneaky speed, it's like I said, he's not a quick twitch guy that has super burst off the line, but once he gets going with those long strides, he really gets moving.  Everyone was so sacred about potential 40 times, he was never going to be that kind of guy to have a crazy fast time, but he has more than enough speed to be an elite WR in this league given everything else he brings to the table. Which is why using him on the underneath stuff isn't a bad strategy, he excelled on those in college since he's catching it in full stride and was good at getting YAC on those routes.  The problem is Canales' play design and calling, the great coaches run certain plays to set up later plays that get that player running wide open across the middle just 7 yards downfield, but with acres of space and at full stride, and Canales just doesn't have that in him. But also yes, we need to be throwing more jump balls to him when there's no safety help on the outside, it seems like Canales won't let Bryce check to it for some reason, as he never does. Yep, I saw AJ in him from the second he stepped foot onto the field as a Freshman, to me the closest direct comp. But in the pre-draft process I saw someone say he's a combo of Plaxico and V-Jax and I couldn't help but feel that was scary accurate.
    • appears so don’t see him on the bench either.
