When asked about the decision to pull new starter Andy Dalton and give Young some late burn, Canales clarified that it was partly because the Panthers didn’t want Dalton to get beat up behind a hurting offensive line. Oh, OK. That’s right. The Panthers are thinking about preserving Dalton’s health first for a long season, Young second. Oh man:

We have to just do better. We got to do better on third down, we have to get off the field so we could play complimentary football.”

Panthers HC Dave Canales was asked if he wanted to build Bryce Young’s confidence by playing him late in Sunday’s blowout loss to the Bears.
