    Yes I do believe Tepper told Canales to bench Young because he wants his franchise to look a little less like a laughing stock in the NFL. Tepper is also the kind of owner that seems like he makes all the decisions about the team but wants none of the recognition for it especially when it goes bad.

      OK, but have you considered the possibility that Tepper is listening to the criticisms of him being too "hands on" and so has given Canales free reign to make team lineup decisions? As much as Tepper is short tempered, he is also egotistical, and benching his first overall draft pick two weeks into season 2 doesn’t exactly make him look good.

    Dave Canales watched the tape. I don’t understand how anyone could watch the tape and think “yeah this kid will get better and help our offense produce the way we imagined it to”. No. Bryce is absolutely terrified to throw past his line of scrimmage, with a better O-line and better offensive weapons. Sure it could be this current coaching staff that made him worse but its much more likely that everything that happened last year ruined his confidence. He is a cerebral QB, and possibly the farthest thing from an athletic QB, with a broken confidence. Even if my dumbass was the coach I would start Andy.

    David Tepper is 90% of the problem, and Bryce Young is 10% of the problem in Carolina. First, owners who think they know about a sport (unless they played in a sport) don't know what they are doing. Tepper made the decision to draft Young at about the same time he hired Frank Reich. Well, Reich didn't last half a season. But that's another story. Tepper is showing that he is seriously incompetent. He makes decisions he can't comprehend. Now, let's get to Young. When you look at elite QBs of the past (Peyton Manning, Phillip Rivers, Dan Marino, etc.), they showed something that Young as NOT shown....leadership qualities. Even former Panthers QBs Jake Delhomme and Cam Newton had take-charge leadership traits. The Panthers rallied around them. Young looks like a broken man in Carolina. he doesn't exude confidence. Young may have excellent talent, but unless you can command the huddle and take charge, the team will not (and has not) respond to you. Andy Dalton will not take the Panthers to the playoffs, but maybe he can light a spark that can make them competitive.
