When Bevell  will came here I suspected maybe he would be that play caller. 
I did not at all expect him to be here as an assist to Idzik at being the play caller. Not sure what to think.

Idzik is like the third generation of a football family so him being just some dumb ass assistent with a token OC title isn’t necessarily the case even though it seems an automatic assumption.  It is possible he knows his stuff but is just inexperienced.  
But damn I didn’t see this coming until last week when I read someone like Person or another writer floated this scenario.  And didn’t really take it as a foregone thing.

Yeah hopefully Idzick has grown as a playmaker and preseason was not a good indicator of his abilities. Otherwise ooh we mayne

His hiring has always been a "WTF".  He was an "OC" that didnt install the offense and didnt call plays and is so inexperienced it took him 2 years on the job to call plays but he still needs an in game handler.

Thats good for the long term. Shows maturity as a coach. 

I like Canales. 

This is similar to his who to start at RB after Rico had 500 yards in 2 games. It took him calling a leadership council to figure it out. His offense has been stagnant for 2 years. This doesn't show growth to me. It's either extremely slow recognition of something any Huddler could see and has been beaten like a rented mule here or someone's told him your offense better improve or else. I tend to think it's the latter.

I kind of like it because play calling seemed to be a weakness of his.  Having a vet play caller in Bevell to help Idzik learn could be good.  Plus I think Canales is too green of a HC to try to handle play calling too.

I am not saying you are right or even wrong I just think its an odd set up and I cannot recall anything similar in the nfl.  I am sure there has been something like this but its certainly not common.

Wow I didn't see that coming.. wow. 

I'm hoping this somehow can lead to him being more likely to over ride Everos decision making as well, maybe it'll free Canales up to actually notice what's going on on defense

Lol...just gonna be another scapegoat by the end of the season. 

That will be 4 play callers at that point that are just "holding bryce back".

Of course. I mean, thinking the playcalls or available plays are dictated in large part by the limitations of the QB is just plain ignorant!  It has to be on the play caller’s lack of imagination.

We have a QB that is standing on his tip toes trying to see the field, that couldn’t possibly be affecting anything, right? 

Anyhow I do agree that Canales was trying to do too much too fast, and was overwhelmed at times because of that.  
 

I will hope that we get a more diverse offense in the third year HC and QB are together, the same old passing charts we have seen most Mondays have to get more spread out. 
Maybe Bevell can help with that.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
