This is correct.

Too late to edit: I can’t find anything regarding a struggle he had with alcohol abuse. I retract that portion of my post.

For the life of me I know I’ve heard/read it from somewhere. If it’s false then I retract the statement.

Perfectly stated. Cheers.

Bryce realizes that he is in the wrong line of work. His objective at this point is not winning. It’s to not die, and I’m sure he doesn’t have many friends in the locker room. with his admitted previous struggle with alcohol (that’s VERY big of him to admit that. Vast majority do not, and it’s very common), his mental health is probably in rough shape. Very strong correlation with alcoholism and depression. I can’t think of a better circumstance for his head to be in a bad way. Mental health is a really big deal that carries over to every aspect of peoples’ lives. I would fashion a good guess he’s probably seeking professional help. Meds can have the ability to dull the darkness but also turn the give a damn completely off. I’m in the biz and know what it looks like. I just know that if I were in his circumstances where the entire locker room and thousands more fans were plain personally hateful and I had to be around it every day… it’d be pretty damn rough. This is not a poor Bryce post or any assassination on his character. It’s just an observation of what could be going on.

Are we the only ones that see this? I so wish I could have seen what Tep meetings with Steve were like. The radio silence from all the former coaches makes me wonder if there is a non disclosure agreement built in to their contracts.

Here’s a really weird take that’s probably way off base but, if Dave is trying to drive morale down to the point where people are begging him to sell, is there anyone more well suited than Bryce? Weird take #2, does the o line eventually throw a full metal jacket style soap party on private Pyle? It’s obvious that poor play won’t get him pulled. Make no mistake, these guys want to win and with Bryce there is a 0.0% chance of that happening. There’s money on the line for these guys. Plummer/Dalton. We’re going nowhere with either, but at least some of the offense guys can show something. You think Hubbard is liking any of this? He’s about to get paid like a practice squad player if he doesn’t get some running room.

It’s all according to plan. Who else better than Bryce to usher it in?

Cheers to that. Played their asses off

Locker room nuked twice in 2 years.Nice. No contract offer to the first black coach (yes it matters a lot), who coded a DOA team back to life in 13 days so they could beat a division rival by 18 points, go .500 over the course of 12 games, but since he was unable to stop the best QB of all time from hooking up with his HOF WR while fielding a depleted secondary… he gotta go. …. And he replaced him with a washed up has been old white guy, with no creativity, which was billed as the top reason Wilks had to go… now he’s pissing on the entire locker room’s bank accounts and trying to see who he can get pointlessly injured. nice.

1 more week.

I feel bad for Canales being puppet #3 under the Tepper regime. His head coaching career is now a predictable 1 and done.

Have they ever had an NFL team that they just refuse business on?

Just thought about it: Bryce actually is the generational talent everyone promised he would be.

Canales is not allowed to

It’s the only move that the front office could do that would save any face with the locker room.

Good call big Cat. 2 games in, neither being even close. Seriously though, how do they even set a line with him in the game?

Comes from a good 2 parent household as well.

Telling you, announcers live for games like this. They work on their jabs all week in preparation

Now he’s just throwing hospital ball after hospital ball. These dudes don’t deserve this.

I will never let it go, ever. even long after the team has been sold in a couple years. 13 days should be a new chant in the stadium or shirt or something. Everyone can poo me, but this is what y’all ‘Steve gotta go’ people wanted, minus the addition of Bryce. A young and fresh offensive play calling head coach. 13 days is all it took him. 21-3 we killed the Bucs. With that game and atl the week after, the Darnold led Panthers put up 55 points in 2 weeks. Stadium was rocking. Players were playing for each other. Yes, I know I just picked a fight that’ll probably go 12 pages before it gets locked. Whatever. Just look at this ish. It looks like the preseason game they never played, only worse.

Wilks took 13 days after being thrust in to the HC job to beat the Bucs 21 to 3. He had only been with the panthers 8 mos at that time. The next week they went in to ATL and hung 34 points on the board, losing in ot by 3. Sam Darnold was his QB. I’m sure he ignored Tepp the entire time. Everything of where we are now is 1000% on T.

I think the locker room knows that it’s not anyone’s call but T’s

It’s not even close

The decision to pull Bryce is not on Canales. No coach that actually respects his team would allow this level disaster to continue. Dan sure wouldn’t keep him in either. Does anyone see this dude as any better than this? He may single handidly break Vegas because a line is almost impossible with him. This is clearly a T call. Andy probably salvages a couple TDs in the effort. If Bryce starts next week… yikes.
