Will 5-6 wins be enough for Canales to keep his job?

[hepcat]

I think every long time Panthers fan can see the season is over. With the hardest remaining schedule in the NFL with every game against a legitimate Super Bowl contender, the Panthers are done. Will the current win total with maybe 1 more win be enough to keep his job?

I think he gets another year.

I really hope not, the dowdle popoff games were fun but other than that its been a shitty ride

Yes, we've clearly improved.

He will probably get a 3rd year but I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets the Rhule treatment if he’s struggling mid season

Dude runs a hybrid air coryel with Bryce noodle would he a compliment young at qb what do you expect?

Let him get his OWN handpicked QB and then let's judge him.

Dave deserves a 3rd year but they need to sign a free agent vet QB like Garapollo, Jameis or Mac and roll with them, quit the Bryce experiment.

Chandler Zavala is so fuging worthless

[Moonraker]

We're just as boring as we were with Reich and Rhule. If we were gonna go smash mouth I would have rather stayed with Wilkes who already had us at 8 wins during an abortion of a season.

3rd and 23. TE screen

Jimmy G is still around? I'm a hard pass on him but I'm cool with almost anybody else

[tukafan21]

Hope not, we have no creativity in our offense, not play design or calls.

If we at least had those things, I could be on board with seeing him for another year with a better QB, but I've seen enough to feel like he doesn't have what it takes to be a great HC.

Remove the big games by Rico Dowdle and I’d argue the offense is exactly the same as last year. The defense has improved a little which isn’t saying much considering they were the worst in the NFL last year.
