Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to Chuba Hubbard, Joey Votto, and all the rest of my favorite Canadians.

When I walked in this morning, Hubbard was already here, working out alone, as is his custom. I have no idea what Joey Votto was doing today.

Sunday was Bryce Young's eighth game-winning drive in his young career, and his sixth in his last 16 games.

That comes down to a lot of factors, but near the top of the list is the "trust" they feel in him and he has in those around him.

Sunday's game-winning drive was about
Young now has eight game-winning drives in his career, including six in his last 16 starts. And his numbers get progressively better with time, especially when time is of the essence.

Dave Canales said WR Jalen Coker is "really close," to returning.

They're also going to open the window for OL Austin Corbett to practice this week, after his early knee injury in Week 2.

Rookie kicker Ryan Fitzgerald is not like the other kids.

But he's gradually earning the trust of everyone in the locker room, with his "nerves of steel" while making his first walk-off field goal in Sunday's win over the Cowboys.

"I trust that man with my soul."

The Panthers are winning games at home, and playing better than they have in years.

But as much as they talked about building a reputation as "fighters," there's also the recognition that this .500 record is built on a lot of small steps, taken daily.
