Dave Canales stepped into a challenging situation as head coach of the Panthers, inheriting a team lacking talent and direction. His decision to bench Bryce Young in favor of Andy Dalton was strategic, aimed at evaluating the roster and securing wins. Initially, Dalton's performances were promising, but they quickly deteriorated, leading to Young's return. Under Canales' guidance, Young has shown marked improvement, regaining confidence and displaying a more dynamic playing style. Canales, known for reviving quarterbacks' careers, has effectively helped Young reset mentally, positioning him to become a competent leader on the field. With continued support and development, Canales is poised to build a successful offense around Young.
