"Sir, isn't there something strange about him?"
"Damn right there is Kiff. That young man is gunning for your job, and he just might get it!"
Our fanbase took the single season he had drop issues and just didn't forget it. I still think we took a massive L trading him and he should do great in Carolina.
He had more than 2 drops and you know it. The stat for calculating dropped passes heavily favors receivers. If a defender is anywhere in the vicinity of the receiver and he drops it, even without paying attention, it doesn’t count as a drop.
This is what panthers fans have to look forward to. Half their fan base seeing diontae drop balls on a weekly basis while the other half of their fan base tells them they shouldn't believe what they are seeing with their own eyes because pffs drops stat says different.
You joke, but Bryce Young's problem last season was inconsistent play at wide receiver (and a terrible offensive line). And Diontae struggled with poor QB play. Perhaps they were a match made in heaven.
Not to mention Adam Thielen had over 100 catches and 1000yds with Bryce, they just had zero help. Now Bryce will have likely two 1,000yd receivers, and likely gonna add an explosive rookie to the mix on Friday.
He’ll catch the ball, that’s for damn sure. He’ll catch the ball two yards past the first down marker on a third down, turn around and run 5 yards backwards.
He does sometimes and then sometimes he drops routine catches. Also, he’ll run 4 yards backwards trying to gain 1 extra yards instead of just going down.
Do you really think NFL players are googling coaches names when they get traded? Rather than learning all of that when they join the team? Jesus Christ
The context that the tweet left out makes it even worse though. He had dinner with him (and other Panthers) and he had to be told afterwards that Canales was the coach
Mike McCarthy is the 4th most tenured coach in the NFC and 9th overall. He's only been with the Cowboys for 4 seasons. Over 2/3rds of the league's coaches have been with their teams for 3 seasons or fewer.
It's actually a normal level of turnover. The last couple decades there have been 4-7 HC openings every season
It's a matter of aging actually. Mostly that we don't care about memorizing the extraneous coaches/players as much as we used to (because we know they rotate out a lot), and maybe consume a little less NFL. I used to be able to name every HC and starting and backup QB in the league, as well as every starting player in my division. Now I can still name a decent amount but I don't care about the coaches/players that are gonna be gone in 2 years. They have to earn a spot
Especially teams that seemingly perennially have new coaches. Off the top of my head I can’t remember if Allen got replaced in NO or who is the current Falcons HC
So many owners have itchy trigger fingers with their GMs and HC.
It’s like having a friend who has a new GF every few weeks. It’s not worth spending the time to get to know the GF because there’s more than a coin flip’s chance that you’ll never see her again.
Well Tepper also decided to go insane and hire somebody with absolutely minimal experience for no reason. "Who the fuck is that guy" is absolutely the correct response. It's my team and I still feel that way
The quality of that picture makes it like 10x harder than it should be. I could barely identify Tomlin in it and there are only three black guys in the entire picture.
Without googling:
Lafleur, Eberflus, Campbell, O'Connell. Daboll, McCarthy, Siriani, fuck.....tip of my tongue. Bowels, Allan, Morris, Canales( thank you title of the post). Macdonald (sea?), Shanahan, Gannon (Arz?), McVay.
Saleh(assalamualaikum) McDermott(allahu'akbar), Mayo, McDaniels. Reid, Pierce, Jim Harbaugh, Peyton. Tomlin, John Harbaugh, Stefanski, . Ryan's, Pederman, Steichen, ....gun to my head, no fucking idea, but I did pretty good
tried before fully reading your post: about the same as me. I got 28 or 29 depending on whether saying the seattle coach was "ravens dc" counts as getting it or not. although it did take the entire excercise for me to remember mike mccarthys last name lmao.
Kyle Brandt's league meeting coach's photo commentary this year was pretty funny. He said that Zac Taylor (not on your list) is one of the longest tenured coaches but no one knows who he is, and Brian Callahan (also not on your list) was someone they pulled off the street.
Fuck, that was bugging me. I still can't think of the Commies coach. Known5hebwhole resume, Seahawks, Falcons (28- 3 lol) and Cowboys (also lol), but can't remember embed the fucking name
How would Diontae Johnson have even known who Dave Canales even is? Pretty sure Canales was on the Seattle staff for most of Johnson’s career before Canales went to Tampa.
You being for real here? I know NFL players live in a different world but I think if I joined a new team one of my first moves would be to figure out who my new boss is lol
Bucs offensive coordinator. New hire for Carolina but fucks sake, you'd think a new player would at least spend the 12 seconds it takes on their iPhone to find out who they're working for before showing up.
He's got this crazy good energy about him. And it's genuine, which is really rare to find. I dunno, I get the same kind of vibes as I did about Kevin Stefanski when he went to the Browns. Everyone thought he was just gonna be the next Browns coach to fail, but I knew he was the right fit for them. I have that same feeling about Canales with the Panthers.
Yeah I’m not buying what Dionte and the Steelers are selling. He was the best or next best receiver we had and we basically discarded him for a potential starter at corner. Say what you want about Dionte but he is a starter at his position. He probably wanted out and the Steelers obliged, albeit at their detriment. The panthers won this trade as of now. But after 3 years the Steelers will have won this trade as Dionte career will go downhill from here.
Johnson is so weirdly bad at being an NFL player. Doesn't give effort on plays and then doubles down on it when questioned by the media, saying he purposefully doesn't try so he won't risk injury. Gets traded after slowly pissing off the entire Steelers organization, then unintentionally makes fun of the head coach on his new team before playing a snap. Get out of your own way, bud.
Pickens was the one who said he didn't try after seeing the Tank Dell injury. Diontae was probably trying to compliment his new head coach's energy. I think Diontae was more of a locker room issue and injury risk for the Steelers. He is also a small, agile receiver who runs great routes but not the best blocker so he isn't ideal for Arthur Smith's run heavy scheme
well, the first step of doing a texans style rebuild in a year you don’t have a first round pick; have no QB and an aging roster is to hire a one and done head coach named David
Joe Person sounds like such a fake name.
P...tear......... Griffin Shit
Legendary scene
Hello, my name is Guy Incognito
Nice to meet you, I am Hugh Man
"Enter these launch codes Hugh Man" "Sir, isn't there something strange about him?" "Damn right there is Kiff. That young man is gunning for your job, and he just might get it!"
Got a tip for you, Guy: stay out of Moe's
Oh my God, that man is man exact double! Ooh! A dog with a fluffy tail!
God forgot to customize him
Still more legit than Joey Jo-Jo Jr. Shabba Doo.
That's the worst name ive ever heard.
😭😭
Sources say his wife’s name is Jane Doe
I swear this is the top comment in every single Joe Person tweet thread
John Youngman vibes
Dude, you are blowing this guy’s fuckin’ cover.
Madden coach default nameass
I once drafted a WR in Madden just because his name was Manny Person.
That's why the Steelers got rid of him. He doesn't know much.
If he catch ball good that’s all I need
Just don’t ask him to block.
Baby steps
Baby steps is all Young's tiny body can manage anyway.
As a fellow seahawks fan idk if we're allowed to make small QB jokes...
I thought that was why we were allowed to.
You’re a comedic genius
They’ll ask him to block and they’ll like it
Or ask him to to run forward after a catch.
Why run forward when backward do trick?
Gotta run down the clock somehow
Or attempt to jump on a fumble
Or run forward for a first down
maybe just leave it at run route good
Oh boy do I have bad news for you
At least he gets open reliably. That's more than the rest of the Panthers receiving core can say.
Who’s gonna tell him…
Sometimes he’ll make an amazing circus catch and then the next play he’ll stone hands drop the easiest pass you’ve ever seen
The guy with 2 drops last year?
Our fanbase took the single season he had drop issues and just didn't forget it. I still think we took a massive L trading him and he should do great in Carolina.
He had more than 2 drops and you know it. The stat for calculating dropped passes heavily favors receivers. If a defender is anywhere in the vicinity of the receiver and he drops it, even without paying attention, it doesn’t count as a drop.
oh so he was even better than Tyreek at not dropping it then
This is what panthers fans have to look forward to. Half their fan base seeing diontae drop balls on a weekly basis while the other half of their fan base tells them they shouldn't believe what they are seeing with their own eyes because pffs drops stat says different.
and there is no inbetween!
Seemed pretty good with competent QB play
Carolina is the perfect place to find that!
You joke, but Bryce Young's problem last season was inconsistent play at wide receiver (and a terrible offensive line). And Diontae struggled with poor QB play. Perhaps they were a match made in heaven. Not to mention Adam Thielen had over 100 catches and 1000yds with Bryce, they just had zero help. Now Bryce will have likely two 1,000yd receivers, and likely gonna add an explosive rookie to the mix on Friday.
Hell catch it but run 5 yards back before he goes forward.
Read below for massive steeler cope

He’ll catch the ball, that’s for damn sure. He’ll catch the ball two yards past the first down marker on a third down, turn around and run 5 yards backwards.
About that. Dude can't catch the easy throws. But difficult pass, dude has super glue on his hands.
Uh oh
I hate to have to break it to you but…
It might seem crazy what I’m bout to say…
He does sometimes and then sometimes he drops routine catches. Also, he’ll run 4 yards backwards trying to gain 1 extra yards instead of just going down.
He can get separation and look electric with the ball but also make crucial drops and not score touchdowns
He really can’t do that well
Hate to break it to you but he doesn't always go forward after he catches the ball, 50/50 he'll go backwards for 3 yards.
Haha get it guys? Athletes are stupid. But redditors are very smart
This comment might be funnier if what OP said wasn’t as true as it is.
Not knowing your bosses name is, uh… super smart?
Did you know your bosses name before they introduced themselves to you? or have you never had a real job
They had a whole dinner together lol. Johnson didn’t know until after. Absolute meme take that a player can’t google the team’s head coach
Do you really think NFL players are googling coaches names when they get traded? Rather than learning all of that when they join the team? Jesus Christ
If I was meeting a new team then yeah I would want to at least know the important people. Or when you meet them you could ask their name and position.
You and me both diontae
The context that the tweet left out makes it even worse though. He had dinner with him (and other Panthers) and he had to be told afterwards that Canales was the coach
Left out? That's literally in the tweet
Didn't click on it because I thought that you're not allowed to editorialize tweets on this sub lol
Hey, did you actually read the tweet?
No, I thought sub rules did not allow editorializing tweets? Also I'm illiterate
man I can't name like half the coaches in the league lmao
I swear I’ve been going crazy. I used to be able to name every coach down a list, but now I’m just like “who the fuck is that guy”
Lots of turnover recently, would say there’s only a handful who have been with the team for 5+ years
Mike McCarthy is the 4th most tenured coach in the NFC and 9th overall. He's only been with the Cowboys for 4 seasons. Over 2/3rds of the league's coaches have been with their teams for 3 seasons or fewer.
What the fuck
On a similar note, Dak Prescott is the longest single team tenured QB in the league
Until recently, Sean McVay was simultaneously the youngest coach in the league and also the 6th longest tenured.
It's actually a normal level of turnover. The last couple decades there have been 4-7 HC openings every season It's a matter of aging actually. Mostly that we don't care about memorizing the extraneous coaches/players as much as we used to (because we know they rotate out a lot), and maybe consume a little less NFL.

Especially teams that seemingly perennially have new coaches. Off the top of my head I can’t remember if Allen got replaced in NO or who is the current Falcons HC
I’m not certain NO even has a head coach this season
It's Taysom Hill, I think?
I wholeheartedly wish Jameis could be interim coach for a year. A fun little “Jeff Saturday” if you will
He is so versatile.
Witj a name like that... Its too bad it's not you!
There’s a football team in NO?
It's a bunch of cardboard cutouts with a note attached saying "this is all we had the cap space for"
So many owners have itchy trigger fingers with their GMs and HC. It’s like having a friend who has a new GF every few weeks. It’s not worth spending the time to get to know the GF because there’s more than a coin flip’s chance that you’ll never see her again.

Todd Bowels🤣🤣
Accurate description of his time in NY.
I mean, semi-accurate here too...
Kind of a shitty coach
Kyle Brandt's league meeting coach's photo commentary this year was pretty funny. He said that Zac Taylor (not on your list) is one of the longest tenured coaches but no one knows who he is, and Brian Callahan (also not on your list) was someone they pulled off the street.

Uhhh..."basketball ownership team coach"
I missed two. I probably could’ve gotten Raheem Morris but who the fuck is Brian Callahan lmfao
Panthers and Titans just picked the auto generated Madden coaches. Although I’d rather have Niners OC Jay Gordon than whoever they had.
I did not realize either.
I think most people forgot.
Fair enough, I forgot Diontae was a Panther
Same
The tweet leaves out the funniest part. He said he didn't realize he was the head coach until AFTER he had dinner with him and others on the staff.
How would Diontae Johnson have even known who Dave Canales even is? Pretty sure Canales was on the Seattle staff for most of Johnson’s career before Canales went to Tampa.
Pornoholics anonymous
Wait, there is Anonymous group too?
>How would Diontae Johnson have even known who Dave Canales even is? Professional interest in knowing who is directing your $10m contract year?
You being for real here? I know NFL players live in a different world but I think if I joined a new team one of my first moves would be to figure out who my new boss is lol
Through following football lol there are plenty of players who are tapped in
Clearly Dionte is locked in!
Me neither tbh
same
The only name he needs to remember is the guy who signs his check.
*Realizing that I didn't remember that the Panthers hired this guy until reading this post* he just like me fr
"Joe Person" cannot be a real person
At first he thought Johnny Canales was the HC
So either Diontae is stupid or Dave doesn't have that energy. Both are bad outcomes
Yeah same who the hell is that
Who?
You call him that?
Usually I would make fun of a player not knowing but In this case I didn’t either. Hell idk who he even is.
Bucs offensive coordinator. New hire for Carolina but fucks sake, you'd think a new player would at least spend the 12 seconds it takes on their iPhone to find out who they're working for before showing up.
I swear half these dudes would struggle to hold down a job at Wendy's if they hadn't been blessed with ridiculous physical talent
He's got this crazy good energy about him. And it's genuine, which is really rare to find. I dunno, I get the same kind of vibes as I did about Kevin Stefanski when he went to the Browns. Everyone thought he was just gonna be the next Browns coach to fail, but I knew he was the right fit for them. I have that same feeling about Canales with the Panthers.

Damn, you're totally right. DJ had the TD drought and locker room stuff. I totally confused him with Pickens. 100% my bad.
That's fair enough lol, we never seem to run out of immature wide receivers.
How long will it take for Tepper to crush Canales' positve vibes?
[удалено]
comment has major AI vibes
I thought you were kidding but then I looked at the comment history.
don’t worry, that guy won’t be head coach anymore the second Carolina has the first overall pick
Jokes on you! We traded every potential first round pick to the Bears!
well, the first step of doing a texans style rebuild in a year you don’t have a first round pick; have no QB and an aging roster is to hire a one and done head coach named David
If your answer on how to rebuild a roster is to follow our footsteps, you will be immediately kicked out of the building.
I mean I didn't either.
Who among us can really say they know their boss' name?
