Russini: Some coaches wanted to bench Young

Behind paywall at Athletic, but:

Despite the team trading up to draft Young No. 1 overall in April, a team source said that by Week 5 multiple Carolina coaches wanted to bench the rookie for veteran quarterback Andy Dalton. Some believed the team needed a change and that Young required more coaching. The team decided this wasn’t about trying to get wins in the short term but to stay on task with teaching and developing Young in the offense. From all my conversations this past week, the Panthers still believe Bryce Young can be an incredible quarterback. Another team source texted, “He needs better protections and weapons. He has ‘it.’ We do not protect the middle of the pocket. He needs it most in this area because he’s 5-10.”

Also says some Panthers insiders have texted Ben Johnson saying how “complicated” it has been to work here:

Some in the Panthers organization, per a league source, have been texting Johnson about how complicated it has been to work in Carolina this season. Johnson is expected to be the top coaching candidate in 2024.

Well yeah, by that point it was clear we’d win the division with competent QB play and Dalton had our best game by far. There would have been no downside for going into win now mode in terms of draft:..

But benching your #1 overall pick for Andy Dalton of all people would probably be a sufficient enough embarrassment that no team in the league would do it. It would probably also have been disastrous to his development.

I don’t think it was necessarily the wrong decision. The wrong decision was trading CMC for a bag of chips and then offloading our only receiver + next years first.
