Dave Canales, Bryce Young aligned on positive outlook to start OTAs :: WRALSportsFan.com

The Carolina Panthers started OTAs on Monday in Charlotte.

YOU SAID ABOUT THE SITUATION. WELL, THOSE STORIES AND MORE AT THE TOP OF THE HOUR, LENA. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, JERROLD. TO THE CAROLINA PANTHERS ARE BACK ON THE FIELD. THEY HAVE A BRAND NEW COACH AT THE HOME AS WELL. THE TEAM HOLDING ORGANIZED TEAM ACTIVITIES TODAY IN CHARLOTTE LED BY COACH DAVE CANALES, WRAL. SPORTS PAT WELTER WAS THERE. HE HEARD FROM THE COACHES AND THE PLAYERS. >> ABOUT THE UPCOMING SEASON >> THERE’S BEEN A LOT OF NEGATIVITY THE LAST FEW YEARS AROUND THE PANTHERS. BUT DAVE CANALES SEEMS TO ME LIKE A COACH WHO’S EQUIPPED TO HANDLE IT. HE IS OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE. NOW. THIS IS HIS FIRST JOB AS AN NFL HEAD COACH. BUT AFTER 15 YEARS AND THE LEAGUE, IT IS CLEAR HE HAS A PLANT CAN NOW IS FOCUSING HEAVILY ON TEACHING RIGHT NOW. BRYCE YOUNG MAKES A WRONG READ. IT’S NOT A BAD THROW. IT’S CONSTRUCTIVE. IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK TO BE EASY FOR HIM TO TRY AND USE THE TEAM’S PAST AS MOTIVATION. WHAT IS MORE FOCUSED ON THEIR FUTURE AND THAT ALIGNS WITH THE MINDSET OF HIS QB. >> IT’S SOMETHING THAT I’VE KIND OF ALWAYS PERSONALLY FELT LIKE AN AGREED. AND THAT’S SOMETHING THAT NOW WE EMBODY AS A TEAM. SO THAT’S DEFINITELY DEFINITELY REASSURING. AGAIN, IT’S BEEN GREAT LEARNING, YOU KNOW, LEARN THE X’S AND O’S FROM COACH, BUT ALSO JUST WATCHING THEM LEAD. >> I’M NOT A NEGATIVE MOTIVATOR. I’M YOU KNOW, I’M ABOUT ABOUT HOW GOOD WE CAN BECOME AND I THINK MAYBE SOME GUYS WILL BE NATURALLY MOTIVATED THAT WAY. IF THEY DO, THAT’S JUST NEVER REALLY WORKED FOR ME. >> I KNOW PRIMETIME GAMES ON THE SCHEDULE THIS YEAR FOR THE PANTHERS AND NO SURPRISE CANALS HAD A POSITIVE SPIN ON THAT AS WELL. HE SAID YOU’VE GOT TO EARN IT, YOU KNOW, JUST GIVE THOSE OUT FOR NO REASON. HE SAID IF WE BUILD SOMETHING WE’RE PROUD OF HERE. PEOPLE
