BY shoulda been Howell'd after his rook season. But no...we are going to trot him out there another year...like he grew 5" and has a strong arm and processing abilities. We need someone for when hes benched next year. It wouldn't take much to beat him out in competition...if there wasn't an agenda.

I mean Reich literally quiet quit when they drafted Young.

You could see the light go out of his eyes. The highly respected NFL HC (and original Panther!) was fired mid-season because he knew he couldn't win with Young.

Any self-respecting franchise would have seen his play and pivoted, moving on from Young that year, but no we continue to trot him out there with no competition. It's maddening.

Evero, Canales, Bryce all tied together through at least next year. Honestly, it’s one of the smarter things Tepper has done. 
 

it gives you the opportunity to see if this squad can continue to grow before making any extension decisions. 
 

If next year bombs out, you have a pretty easy reset with a fresh staff, a high pick, a talented roster, and no qb crippling contract. 

Well besides paying Young $27m for replacement level play of course.

There's nothing wrong with the coaching staff and the roster very much is a rebuild in process. It's still not an attractive proposition for a Head Coach with this meddling owner in charge.

They don’t have the balls to move on.
