Life under Dave Canales is a little different than the previous season for now second-year quarterback Bryce Young. 

During Young's rookie season, he had multiple voices in his ear. The result was a 2-15 season that saw him produce some of the most pedestrian rookie quarterback numbers in recent NFL history. 

To remedy the issue, the Carolina Panthers hired Dave Canales, who helped resuscitate Baker Mayfield's career in Tampa Bay. On Tuesday, Young detailed the key difference between the Frank Reich regime and the Canales regime. It boiled down to one simple word – consistency

"Just to have one consistent voice and for us an offense, obviously this is new for everyone, so us being on the same page, us being able to ask anyone a question and there be, everyone has an answer and there be the same vision, that's huge for our offense," Young said. "That's super important, for me definitely." 

Carolina invested heavily in Young's success during the early portion of the offseason. The Panthers traded for wide receiver Diontae Johnson, who is a former Pro Bowler. Carolina also inked deals with guards Robert Hunt and Damien Lewis, adding assurance to an offensive line that was suspect at best during Young's rookie season. 

Through the draft, the Panthers have openly admitted to looking for wide receivers. Recently, South Carolina wide receiver Xavier Legette said the Panthers told him they want to take him at pick No. 33. 

Johnson will be the "X" receiver within Canales' offense. Young still has veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen. With a consistent voice in his ear, the arrow is pointing up for the second-year signal caller.
