Canales presser

Ummm, seeing how he forced Reich to draft Bryce, I would probably say otherwise. I think Tepper hired him hoping he could be the QB whisperer that fixed Baker, but Canales probably quickly realized there is no fixing Young. I honestly think Dalton is the day 1 starter if Bryce wasn't the #1 pick from last year that we traded a kings ransom to get and it was a true open competition in training camp/preseason.

Fitterer drafted Young and according to him and Reich they were all on board.

Everything else you wrote is your assumptions on what you think happened.

How about we just quit with the Tepper is calling plays and deciding every draft pick stuff? Now Canales is a hero because he put Tepper in his place?

Occam’s razor would be wisely used here. Tepper didn’t force Young on Canales. Canales got hired to improve the team from last year’s disaster and determine if Young was the guy. Tepper and Canales met last week after the disaster and probably met this morning after another disaster and Canales confirmed to Tepper that Young is not our future. Now, I assume that Canales will be focusing on seeing what we have outside QB and Morgan, hopefully, is spending 90% of his time with scouts focusing on the next two draft classes of QBs.

Also, I think this change happened because I honestly think the locker room would have revolted if they kept trotting Bryce out there. Literally our top 2 receivers were pissed at Bryce and had to say some ho-hum I didn't mean nonsense.

I gotta imagine this is how the Jets felt last year with Zach Wilson at QB.

Tepper is a meddler it is what it is. We don't know how hands off he is currently it's still early in the season. But he's been having regular meetings with Canales and it's only week 3 so it's unlikely IMO that they never discussed benching the first overall pick the Panthers traded a fortune for.

Of course he’s having regular meetings. We literally just benched our 2023 #1 overall pick. Canales was hired for the exact same reasons that we all wanted to see happen in 2024. Figure out if Young could ever be the guy. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to think they likely saw the same poo all the announcers and fans saw. I agree that is 99.999% likely that Canales walked into Tepper’s office this morning and said, yep Tep, it’s as bad as we thought last week. The kid ain’t it and we need to move on and decide what we’ve got on this team and Dan’s gotta jump on the scouts and figure out the next QB.

I think we improve dramatically offensively with Dalton, probably enough to push us out of a top five pick.

Don't care about next year's draft at this point. We almost have a full season left to play in 2024. Losers give up with 90% of a season left to play

Every single person who watched the first two weeks knows Young sucks. It’s been confirmed. Some of us thought it was obvious last year but we traded away a chance to dump Young this offseason so unlike Josh Rosen, he got a second year.

I think this is even worse than what the Jets felt. They felt like his mistakes were derailing a good team. If Wilson was on the Panthers last year instead, we probably wouldn’t be benching him right now. Wilson has the arm that Young dreams about. We do not have a playoff caliber team with Aaron Rodgers so we’d probably be more patient with Wilson to see if he could improve. Young has no physical ability to hope he can get better.

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
