11sanchez11 Posted Monday at 06:30 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:30 PM let him sit 4 games then bring him back, unless Dalton is so good you can't bench him. maybe he'll learn something from the sideline 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to play Bryce Young through this regardless to see if he's worth keeping around or not. Even if he's not, his abysmal play gets you the high pick you'll need to replace him. Benching him now is stupid to me. Put bluntly, I think they know Andy Dalton isn't good enough to win that squad many games and a high pick is all bit certain either way. But the Panthers may or may not have more holes than just QB (they have more, obviously). Bryce isn't just playing bad, he's downright abysmal to the point it's probably near impossible to even evaluate other positions and areas of need. When someone isn't even playing bad but functional football, how can any real evaluation take place? Andy Dalton won't be a true difference maker in the W/L column, but he's at least an NFL level backup QB who will play well enough to make calls on other positions. Either gets you a high draft pick, but one of them allows you to continue evaluating the rest of the roster for the new QBOTF. The other is only fun to watch as disaster porn. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see what it gets the franchise, especially since they have a brand new head coach who can just point the finger at Young and take a new QB with a top pick of he wants.

Plus Canales might lose the locker room if he kept trotting out Bryce. Players aren't stupid. They watch the tape as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ_Eaglesfan Posted Monday at 06:57 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:57 PM Wonder what Canales job security is like with Tepper at the top? Is he seat already getting hot? Wouldn’t surprise me if that was part of this move tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the idea is Young is so bad the coaches can't develop anyone else on the offense because he can't get them the ball, and on defense because when a team 3&Os habitually the end is purely about fatigue. His career is over. He, Bo Nix, and Zach Wilson are the 3 worst 1st round QBs I've seen since Paxton Lynch. And he might be among the worst 1st round QBs ever, not just the worst #1 overall picks ever. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tepper fires Canales after year one, nobody will want that job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warfelg Posted Monday at 07:01 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:01 PM I wonder if DJ went after him in the lockerroom and Canales had the same reaction as Tomlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
