What's your confidence level in Canales?

Definitely more positive than I was about the initial hire. What's impressed me more than Bryce's journey with him is how the coaching staff and play calling has evolved over the course of the season. They're clearly focused on getting better which in turn is going to lead to winning.

Very interested to see what they lean into more next season vs. show less of.

I am gonna go B - 

He got Young playing much better in the 2nd half of the season and it has given the fan base hope. 

Some concerns I have with him

1) he seems too nice and to peaches and roses. i like to see some fire out of a coach. 

2) he doesn't seem to interfere with the DC when he ought to. if I am the HC aint no team gonna just keep running the ball down my throat. hell naw. ill tell the DC to blitz the hell out them up the running gaps and force you to beat me through the air. no one is just gonna sit there and beat me doing the same stuff all game.

Confidence is sky high with him on offense he took Bryce young and took him from horrific to looking like an nfl starter.  Defensively I have no clue why he wants to stick with the DC.  Not sure what he sees in him but maybe he thinks its just a lack of talent overall.  But I remember some of the panthers dcs int he past taking teams with no talent and making them look good Jack Delrio I felt was good at that.

Agree or disagree? 🤔

Still a meh for me. 

2 wins to 5 wins isn't that big of a deal. Remember how much we screamed Rhule sucked and he was a 5 win coach. 

Rebuilt the oline? More like bought the oline. Most expensive line in the NFL. Plus this would be more of a Morgan thing than a DC. 

Unlocking Bryce's potential is a wait and see. Bryce looked like ass to start, got benched and then began to play well once the season was essentially over. That's a load of pressure off the QB. Do I like where BY is trending, yes. Can he do it for a full season? We'll see. 

Chuba as a 1k yard rusher. Most expensive line in the NFL. If we had less than a 1k yard rusher I'd be pissed. Chuba has looked much better as a receiver and has obviously put in the work. 

Do we have a HC? Yes. Is he going to be a good one? Way too soon to tell IMO.

I'm probably at 5/10 for Dave. I'd love to see more consistency, and I also feel like he needs to continue to grow into being HC and play caller. Sometimes the whole operation on offense looks fantastic, and then there are major duds like the Dallas or TB away game.

I'm more wait and see on Morgan. I agree with some of the other posters who mention a need to improve college scouting. If that happens I think we have a good HC and GM combo.

This was quite literally Morgan’s first offseason calling the shots. He had input before but that’s different from being the shot caller. Now he’s got those 20 inch blades on the impala. 
 

We don’t know what he will do, or how he may give more input from Canales regarding offensive picks moving forward. 
 

trust the process.

    • yeah, Canales nor Bryce really offer what that show wants.   We would have to be bringing a lot to the table given we are a small market team.  We just don't have the personalities.  XL just ain't enough
    • I am the same way--look back at the draft history of the Panthers and see how many fourth rounders stuck--While I agree that we need all the picks we have to address needs, backup QB is a VERY IMPORTANT need.  While people do not want to spend a draft pick on a QB--I think the best value in round 4 might be QB.  Besides, backups cost more cap room than a mid round rookie--so what you lose in the draft you gain in free agency.  We have coaches who have developed QBs--and other players.  Let them do their work.  The concept that a third year QB needs a mentor is myth.  They can develop just as much by mentoring a rookie--and there are these things called coaches (often former QBs) who can do that. THIS DRAFT has some strong, developmental QBs that should be available in rounds 3 and 4.  The Pats drafted Brady when they had Bledsoe--same thing.  I want my backup QB trying to win a starting gig, not looking to stave off Shady Acres.
    • Definitely want a guy you can count on for a few games who gives the team a chance to win--I see that perspective.  My view is the backup needs to be competing and developing for 3 years from now, when Bryce may be a mediocre QB asking for $80m.  In addition, his success has been a relatively short stretch; we don't know if old Bryce might return.  I would like to be grooming a backup to be an NFL starter (here or elsewhere) than keeping a guy out of retirement.   But there is benefit to any approach, and what I like probably matters little--Cousins behind RGIII, Brady was drafted when Bledsoe was a big name, The Niners drafted Purdy when they were grooming Lance, etc.  If you sign a 38-year old veteran, you don't develop the backup QB.  Here, we seem to be able to develop QBs (Coach has the rep for developing QBs), so I would like to see us prepare for an uncertain future and use the talents we have on the staff.
