Original Title: Since Cam Newton got hurt 2 games into the 2019 season, the Panthers have had 7 different HCs & 8 starting QBs. Whether Bryce Young is salvageable is besides the point. Canales needs immediate results in order to save his own job; David Tepper has no patience & no long-term vision or rebuild plan.


Since Newton’s 2019 injury, the following QBs have started for the Panthers:

  • Kyle Allen (12 starts)
  • Will Grier (2 starts)
  • Teddy Bridgewater (15 starts)
  • PJ Walker (7 starts)
  • Sam Darnold (17 starts)
  • Cam Newton (5 starts)
  • Baker Mayfield (6 starts)
  • Bryce Young (18 starts)
  • Andy Dalton (1 start)

The following have served as Carolina’s HC since Newton’s 2019 injury:

  • Ron Rivera (10 games)
  • Perry Fewell (4 games - finished out 2019 seacon)
  • Matt Rhule (38 games)
  • Steve Wilks (12 games - finished out 2022 season)
  • Frank Reich (11 games)
  • Chris Tabor (6 games - finished out 2023 season)
  • Dave Canales (2 games so far)

Whether or not Bryce Young actually has the potential to be an NFL-caliber QB is up for debate. But what’s obvious is that no QB and no HC will ever get the time to develop or to figure things out in Carolina. Tepper expects nothing less than immediate results. Frankly, the Carolina Panthers are looking more and more like a career ender for aspiring coaches. It’d be better to stay as a promising OC or DC than to take this job and get fired when you can’t spin crap into gold in the span of a half-season.

Canales is worried about keeping his own job, not developing Bryce Young.
