Has this game changed feelings about Young?

[SOJA]

honestly not really. He had a bad day but the entire team did tbh. O line had by far their worst game of the season. 

I said in the last Bryce thread: it still remains TBD if he is a franchise guy, a good but not great starter or not the longterm answer. 

Can't make that call after one week

Not really. I like Canales as a head coach but we need better play calling with better weapons. Every other game I see i just see quick hit throws that get good chunck RAC. And I just wonder why can't we have nice things 

Here's the thing that bothered me about Canales play calling that bothered me. Olsen said it several times during the game. Why wasn't he calling play action more. Having Young in shotgun wasn't helping our running game and gave the defense time to tee off on Young. 

I like Canales but play action needs to be more prevalent in our offense.

He needs to get his own DC in there plus relinquish play calling stick to being the head coach

We ran a ton with Dalton if you remember. Canales' offense is actually built around play action. Dave didn't run it more because it takes longer to develop and the pass rushers get there before throwing lanes can develop for Bryce to see. You can see this everytime he gets pressured he sprints out of the pocket to reset rather than stepping into it or resetting- not only is he being chased, his view is more obstructed than somebody like Dalton, Darnold, Cam, etc. PJ Walker used to do this too.
