OMG, relax people. Canales reports to one person and Tepper’s not stupid enough to not realize Canales didn’t build this team.

I’m actually hopeful that Canales can take the lead and get the franchise backing to say we need competition for Young. That’s what we all hope happens this year, an answer on whether or not Young is the guy. I know my thoughts but that was an expensive trade up with disastrous results. If I’m the owner, I want my coach to give it to me straight. If Young isn’t the guy, how do we develop the young skilled guys like Leggette and Sanders and Brooks. Do we trade anyone (lol, I know, is there anyone to trade?)?

No more sugar coating, one guy away, everything is fine poo. Time to be real and decide what our future is.

Flame away.

I know what you are saying but I wouldn’t say it’s nothing. We went 2-15 last year and there was some hope that Young might get it. 47-10 later and we need to map out a real rebuild and determine who’s worth saving. I think it’s important (as an owner, I would think this) to trust that my HC isn’t sugar coating and has a plan to develop young guys while looking at 2025 QBs. We know where most people in here will go (meddling, forcing Canales to start Young) but I think this could be a key first meeting to make sure the football guys are on the right path and not trying to put lipstick on a pig. I don’t want Tepper deciding who to draft but after that humiliation, I’d want to sit back and listen to my coach to see what he thinks of where we are now.

Yeah I think Reich said he had a meeting every Monday after the Sunday games and said those meetings “aren’t necessarily fun but they are helpful and Mr. Tepper just really wants to start winning sooner than later.”

 

Didnt read the article yet so my bad if this was mentioned in it

I could certainly be wrong but I think Canales and Morgan will tell Dave or have already told Dave that they can't win with Bryce.

Dan: "It's a big man's game"

Canales: "I want my QB to plant his foot and let it rip" ***Bryce is standing on tippy toes to see over the line

Dave Isn't stupid. Just a matter of time.

I don’t understand why people make such a big deal out of this. All coaches for every team meet with the owner sometime during the week. It isn’t abnormal. 
This has never bothered me. But the Panthers media and fans seemed to think this is some big bad because they hate Tepper. 
Not defending Tepper just think the reaction to these normal meetings with the OWNER of the team are overblown.

The GM and HC directly report to him so no surprise. I know it's been reported he is hands off the football stuff but he can't be hands off the management for his employees who report to him. We are about to get a glimpse into what's changed really.

I'm a little surprised DC didn't already bench Young in the 4th. Game was over and it's not his rookie year. Just felt too much like last year but thems just feelings.

Because it was so bad last year and Reich was transparent early about that and those meetings. It's all about him meddling or micromanaging. If it was simi normal the meetings would be less frequent and more managerial. Don't know yet but I do want to see which way the wind is blowing now.

that is simply not true, like at all.  We did this conversation last year.

 

For someone saying they are stepping back and let the football people do there thing and coming off a 2 win season, its pretty concerning the teppers are doing the exact same thing.

      Anyone left who does not believe in Bryce ?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't need my QB to have arm talent for me to like them, but I do put a lot of weight to how it can affect that player's max potential when it's as bad as Bryce's is, particularly when combined with his overall size.  Even the most ardent Bryce supporters can't honestly deny that Bryce is likely to have the weakest arm of all starting QB's his entire career, maybe some year's he's only in the Bottom 5, but short of pumping steroids, that's never going to change. I'm not a historian of the league on QB's arm strength compared to others, but how many players with that weak of an arm compared to the rest of the league, also was an above average QB for a sustained period of time? I know Brees didn't have a great arm and that's the comparison people like to use for Bryce, but again, he's smaller and weaker armed than even Brees was, and Brees is one of the biggest outliers in NFL history as is.  Which is why Bryce was also betting on him becoming THE biggest outlier in league history at the position.  Bryce doesn't need to become any certain type of QB for me to like him or to be considered a success.  But he does need to become a QB who raises the play of your team, who can drag you to wins when needed, and has you as a contender in more years than not (all teams have down years, but the great QB's have their teams winning playoff games more years than not). It's why I didn't want to draft Bryce, because I just never did, and still don't, think he has that potential in him for a long period of time and at a high level.  Can we put the perfect team around him and we get the right schedule in any given year for a player like him to lead us to a high seed and maybe make a run, sure of course.   But those teams don't have sustained success because it takes the perfect combination of rookie contracts and lucky picks/signings that all pan out at the right time.  They have a great regular season, flame out in the playoffs, and then go back to being that team that either just misses the playoffs or just makes it in to lose in the first round every year.  Picking in the 13-20 range every year, always missing out on the true elite talent in the draft but still not contending. Is that who fans want us to become?  I know it's better than what we've been for a while, but I want better for my team, I love our Panthers and I want us to win the Super Bowl. Prove me wrong, I want to be wrong, I don't want to be stuck in NFL purgatory, I don't want to need to have to find a new QB in 2 or 3 years because we still can't get into the playoffs. But I am who I am, and I am someone who doesn't keep his team colored glasses on at all times to only looks at the positive, I look at realities and call them how I see them.  And I see Bryce as our path to NFL purgatory at best right now and it scares the living hell out of me. Bryce, prove me wrong.

      I miss Luvu, haha.  Chinn too, but really we hadn't used him well since his rookie year.
