blame the officers, not the soldiers

this is the oldest damn refrain in the world and goes back to the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest.

In football terms, it usually manifests as "you can't fire the players."

stop pretending that the Panthers are a super bowl winner with just five new white dudes in head sets. It's the easy way out. the optimistic way out. In many ways, the cowards way out.

embrace the shittiness. Revel in it. Make it yours.

but stop pretending one man can fix everything right away.

sweet got any more useless platitudes i want to start my new bumper sticker business

it is the truth. Replace Fox w/ a good head coach and the change will be significant. Fox has always been a DC pretending to be a HC. It has caught up to him.

A HC that gives a damn could fix this team.

Fox was cracking jokes and laughing at them in his post-game press conference - that shows you where his head is at... he's checked out and could give a f**k at this point.

Of all the cost-saving measures, keeping a lame duck HC around is the one that bothers me the most, because it has poisoned the entire team.

new HC and coaching staff that doesn't suck

a GM that doesn't suck

an Oline that doesn't suck/get hurt all the time/doesn't take half a season to gel

DEs capable of a pass rush

DTs that don't suck

a secondary that doesn't suck

WR corps that aren't too old or who don't suck

a QB who doesn't suck.

these few things might make the team suck less. fixing just a couple of them won't turn things around. good thing we don't have (m)any huge long term contracts left.

team can actually rebuild after this year. hopefully it won't be anther crappy underachieving team.

    • Canales was brought in to fix Bryce. That was how he sold himself. He failed.  the panthers need a new qb, someone to coach him, and someone to build a defensive staff.  Canales has failed at developing a new qb. His big draft project XL is trending towards bust. His entire nfl resume before the panthers was one season as offensive coordinator on a stacked Bucs team, and being on the offensive staff when a 31 year old Geno smith finally put it all together. And he didn’t even pick his offensive coordinator. Assuming evero is gone, who’s he got in that phone to call? What low lvl porn addict evangelical from the bucs is ready to be Peter principled? There is nothing in his coaching history or his current performance that indicates he’s the person to move this team forward. Every other team knew this last cycle (panthers were only interview) and nothing has happened to change that perception   all people like you have is “well you can’t do it again it’s too soon but <random interval of time> will be different.  just pull off the bandage. There’s no reason to let this guy draft “his guy” except people wanting an excuse not to fire him after 2025. 
    • Both Reich and Canales were saddled with trying to build and establish a viable scoring offense around Bryce Young. The best the offense looked this season and last season was with Andy Dalton who is also terrible but still better than Bryce Young. Which should be all anyone needs to know but still somehow there are weirdos here salivating over a ceiling of maybe on a really good day the 25th best QB in the league. We've already canned one entire staff over our first overall pick. You can fire everyone again to satisfy your need for vengeance and quickly come to the realization that your next hire will absolutely unequivocally be a downgrade yes man or you can blow up this QB room and then assess. If no progress next season then you can make changes and justifiably so.
    • Surprised this is the only post with this take.  This is like the Rhule kiss of death lol.
