Kaye’s Take: In the rush to blame one or the other, I think the missing thought for most is that maybe it’s BOTH Dave Canales and Bryce Young who aren’t performing consistently well as a tandem partnership together.

When it’s great (ATL/DAL), it’s great, but it’s rarely great. Typically, it’s bad (SF/NE/NO) or fine (MIA/NYJ/ATL WK3).

If you’re management or ownership, I’m not sure how you can watch these first 12 games and say this is a sustainable workflow. Sure, they’ll probably go and have another big one in the next five games but that’s a 20% firework, not a rocket ship.

The #Panthers are a 6-6 slinky of a team because consistency can’t be forged when chemistry is fleeting and fledging.

One way or another, there needs to be changes to offensive infrastructure (fwiw that’s life in an NFL offseason anyway). Even if a playoff run happens, the whole point of this slower, thoughtful process (which does have merit) is to not overachieve, accept, and then sink.

The team has done a lot of things well behind the scenes and they have generally improved in a lot of areas on the field (defense - talent and coaching, development, rookie class, etc), but you can’t just put your head in the sand.

Time for this good ole reliable gif

Canales has shown more than Bryce.   Get rid of Bryce, bring in a FA and let him pick a qb in the draft that actually fits anything he wants to do.  Bryce is the exact opposite of every scheme Canales has ever been part of.  I think thats why he was so fast to bench him when he got here.

I remember that poo well. It was an offseason of retraining Young’s footwork/throwing process.  
He had a decent single drive in preseason vs Buffalo where you could see him executing the new technique on a few passing downs. 
 

Go to the opener vs New Orleans and he stuck with it until the end of the first quarter.  It went totally out the window and he reverted to his horrible unique to him technique. That was, is and always will be a total fail. 

I think he’d have been yanked right there if Canales wasn’t brand new.  
Bryce was absolutely horrible those first two games. By the end of the second game we had WRs openly rebelling and pitching fits on the sidelines.  
Benching him was the only option at that point.
