Panthers' Bryce Young Struggles in Season Opener Loss to Saints

Rookie coach Dave Canales takes responsibility for offensive woes as Carolina prepares for Week 2 against the Chargers.

  • Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young had a career-worst performance with a 32.8 passer rating in a 47-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
  • Rookie head coach Dave Canales admitted the coaching staff was outcoached and took responsibility for the team's poor offensive showing.
  • Young struggled with protection adjustments, taking three sacks from cornerback blitzes and completing only 43.3% of his passes.
  • Despite the loss, Young expressed confidence in the coaching staff's system, which allows him the freedom to make pre-snap decisions.
  • The Panthers face the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 2, with key players like tight end Tommy Tremble returning from injury but others, including Jadeveon Clowney, facing fitness concerns.
