The Season with Peter Schrager: Panthers Head Coach Dave Canales

Peter opens the pod by weighing in on the Lakers hiring of JJ Redick, his own personal interactions with Redick in Brooklyn, and why he appreciated his edge in his opening press conference. Then, Panthers first-year Head Coach Dave Canales joins to take us through his incredible career path and journey from running a training facility to becoming one of the 32. Canales takes us through his lessons learned from Pete Carroll’s approach, working with Russell Wilson, Geno Smith, and Baker Mayfield, and to his approach and mindset as he embarks upon the challenge of taking over the worst team from the 2023 season. Canales has incredible stories and a wonderful approach and outlook at life. He doesn’t identify himself as a football coach. He sees himself as a father, husband, and leader of men. Can he lead Bryce Young back from what was a rough rookie season? Peter and Dave get into it, and what it’s been like working for owner David Tepper.

I hope Dave is our coach for a very very long time

[@juandon609]

Agreed but we gotta see how it goes first

[@Nonchalantmaine]

He will be. he has at least 3 years to turn the team around to compete. Which honestly, I believe the way he revamped the roster and drafted we can contend for the division this year. might not win it but can be a contender.

[@charlie.h.4]

No kidding. Fingers crossed.

[@4u2c95]

​@@NonchalantmaineThat's the same thing everyone said about Matt Rhule. Until the season is over, I'm not making any statement on their behalf

[@Nonchalantmaine]

@@4u2c95 yea but the difference is Dave has nfl experience Matt came out of college and most of Matt staff was from his college staff. So we have coaches that coaches and had success at the highest level. And Matt never shown improvement just that we can win 5 games every season. With Dave we will win 5 this year and that total will go up. We have talent player on rookie that if they live up to the expectations for sure we can be a good team. Dan will proved to be a better gm than Scott who missed on picks and traded away key players.

[@brianabernethy3697]
