The argument lines about Teppers role in the team always expose to me who has and hasn’t worked in a corporate environment. An overbearing manager/owner with a poorly defined org chart is just an awful, inefficient, soul crushing place to work. I’ve worked for a few companies now. My current employer is basically the healthcare equivalent of the corporation from robocop but my god at least it’s competently managed and I know who my direct report is and I know they have at least baseline qualifications. Carolina must be absolutely miserable to work for right now, top to bottom.

Thanks for giving us a glimpse of competence.

People are shifting on this trade but the panthers got nothing and managed to not give away first round picks in the process. That’s a massive improvement.

Hes a thumper and effort guy but holy poo he has no range at all and they were eating him alive on routes over the middle all game. he’s a limited 3-4 ILB at best, rotational guy most likely. Which is fine you need people like that but he moves slower than poo rolls up hill.

Lmao guess he didn’t suck up to Nicole enough

Ricky’s dealing.

it's wild if you watch all his passes from week 1 last year you can see the defense figure him out in real time. watch his footwork deteriorate as well. after that second pick he just starts airmailing everything. also good god does he throw some hospital balls.

He also threw a hideous corner end zone fade that got picked when Coker had him beat. And for every time he connects on that sideline go, he throws five uncatchable balls on the same route.

Yeah but thielen was his blankey last year and is a legit loss for him. maybe thielen is his 1 and 2 himself.

People are talking about his too top two receivers are out; did Johnson ever even catch a pass from bryce?

What has Canales done to suggest he deserves a chance to bring in a qb? We’ve had 8 games of this and it’s getting worse every week. What about what you are seeing on Sundays fills you with confidence that this guy can pick a qb? He didn’t do it in Seattle, he didn’t do it in Tampa, and he sure as poo hasn’t done it in Carolina. He went into training camp with these qbs. what do you mean he thinks things are going to work because they work in practice? That isn’t how game planning works….at all.

What injuries have the offense dealt with? Thielen? WR is looking like the deepest spot on the team. the injuries have been on the other side of the ball where Dave Canales does nothing. He didn’t even pick the defensive coordinator. everyone would be fine with the defense sucking poo and the team not winning if the offense wasn’t worse than it was last year. What do the injuries to Shaq and Brown etc have to do with barely averaging two tds a game?

Can’t wait for the defensive rebuild to be led by a guy who’s never had to select a defensive coordinator. Not sure if any bucs or Seahawks defensive coaches were in his circle jerk club.

I think they were a very good defense last year that was actively hampered by the offense, far more than this years offense is hurt by the defense. I find the argument about the defense holding Canales back funny because it’s not like the 2024 panthers offense is going up against defenses that have had any rest. sure, number numbers I get it. At the end of the day, moves were made for one side of the ball at the expense of the other, Dave Canales was involved in these decisions, and both the offense and defense are considerably worse if you take away what’s looking like a complete fluke against the raiders. Canales is not exempt for blame for this. He cannot use the team he had a hand in constructing as a way to escape fault. It’d be one thing if there was any improvement in the offense from last year, but I don’t really think anyone can say there has been. Certainly not any that justifies the overall regression of the team.

Except that in this case Dave is in charge of and hired the pit crew.

The best part of that opening td drive was Bryce’s scramble drill where he missed the guy at the back of the endzone. It doesn’t matter because he got XL right after that, but someone (I think sanders) was COMPLETELY uncovered slightly to his right just walking across the goal line. Like a pass that zod could complete but it was slightly to the right of his vision so Bryce probably couldn’t see him.

I’ll never forget those first drive Bryce passes sailing majestically behind the line of scrimmage to a wr who did literally all the work. So beautiful it doesn’t matter he couldn’t manage a first down until the third quarter hang the banners

And yet all those players were part of a defense that was top five in the league, and without them…. At the end of the day the defense was gutted/allowed to leave so the panthers had the flexibility to improve the wr corps and offensive line. The result is what we see. Dave Canales deserves blame for parts of this. He was the coach. If he had no say then there’s no need to keep him for a rebuild. If he was in favor of it then he’s a moron and doesn’t deserve to be kept around. if he was against gutting the defense and overruled, which I sincerely doubt since it’s not even a unit he has say over, then fug it keep him around because nothing matters with this team.

Did Canales not have any say in the roster composition?

As a leader of men can you see the only person bringing up religion here is you? In multiple threads? I intentionally left any cracks about this freaks beliefs out because because people like you would happily hop up on the cross to deflect blame. I guess you’ve shown me that doesn’t even matter with my you people? Also “as a leader of men” are you fuging kidding me get the fug out. Go teach fat kids how to set up a tent.

/glances at records and point differential

I wouldn’t follow this guy into the appliance section at Lowe’s.

I mean it’s been a while since I read X-men regularly but maybe Mr. Sinister could figure it out?

Oh my GOD

Okay today he’s the worst head coach in team history.
