I’ll give him plus’s for team building and culture.  Clock and game management, not so much.

I think the jury is still out on the team building and culture thing. Let's see how this season plays out before we take a vote.

He needs to at least reach a Super Bowl in my opinion. Even RR was able to manage that.

He managed that because  Cam drug him/them there

i dont Know about Canales   Time will tell, I guess    He is no offensive genius, that’s for damned sure but the players respond to him and they cover his mistakes

It’s important to remember he wasn’t on the team that drafted Bryce young. 

it’s important to remember he hasn’t made a single excuse when things have gone wrong

he turned someone that people were saying was the worst first pick of all time into a playoff qb. That’s a start

I think the best thing he ever did was give up play calling. He’s not Vince Lombardi. Focus on managing the team. One you master that, then you can take play calling back if you want. But until then you are a head coach first. A play caller should be second

Let’s be real. Canalas misses the playoffs, his ass will be fired along with them moving on from Bryce.  I wouldn’t call that a rockstar. Rockstars have hits. Canalas has a writing credit on a top 20 song.  To reference music.  
 

I can see both sides.

    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.  
    • I still go back to the beat writers having a read on Rodriguez IF he was in play at 19.  If Dan puts his nuts on the table and takes him, pretty solid job of keeping the secrets in house. 
    • Not a chance. Maybe, just maybe if we move back far enough.
