What led to the Panthers replacing Young, the former No. 1 overall pick, and what does it mean going forward?
Pat McAfee says Bryce Young still has a chance to revitalize his career despite Carolina benching him heading into Week 3.
The list goes on and on, but ultimately the Panthers believe Dalton gives them a better chance of winning after they spent the offseason making upgrades at the skill positions and offensive line to help Young. Canales knew benching Young would send a negative signal to the locker room. He also knew not benching Young wouldn't give the Panthers a realistic chance of winning.. They have the ninth worst overall DVOA of 1,397 teams since 1979 through Week 2, going back to 1979. The offense is even lower, ranking as the seventh-worst offense of any team through Week 2.
One veteran NFL personnel man had a different take."They had to bench that guy," he said."The offense was nonfunctional."
