Dave Canales has unrivaled confidence in his players. The head coach was disappointed after the San Francisco 49ers beat the Carolina Panthers on Monday Night Football. He also knew that they would respond positively to the setback.
The Panthers always seem to win after they lose, regardless of the opposition. Not many gave them hope of that against the Los Angeles Rams, but Canales' squad tore up the script en route to a stunning upset triumph at Bank of America Stadium.
It was a miraculous effort, one that kept the Panthers right in the playoff picture at their bye week.
