Dave Canales risks losing Panthers fans’ trust with the same positive spin
The Carolina Panthers are circling the drain after losing their third consecutive game and fifth overall this season against the Denver Broncos.
Week 9's game was marred by penalties, controversy, and the same suspects along the offensive line who allowed a game-winning strip-sack of quarterback Bryce Young in the final 90 seconds. However, much of the frustration falls on head coach Dave Canales.
Canales had a chance to be tough toward the officiating. Instead, he took a steadier approach, showing little conviction on egregious no-calls, and his personality may be getting in the way of the Panthers becoming a better football team.
