Adam Thielen sideline meltdown


Recommended Posts

I don't, but I'm glad he had it. It's painfully obvious to us as fans that Bryce is terrible and I'm sure it's even more painfully obvious for the players because they practice and play with the guy. You can defend the human being, but the player? nah, get him out of here.

Feel bad for this dude. He is wasting his last few good years getting wide ass open for a QB who can't even see him downfield.

Trade him to a contender plz.

If we are heading towards the end of Oct with something like 1 win then I would move whomever I could for draft capital.  Theilen, Johnson, whatever to try and get something to build with.  We got a long road ahead and those dudes are not going to be around to help out.

This! 

Both Theilen and Johnson should be traded. Those guys could help a lot of contenders. I would wait closer to trade deadline tho to see what WRs get injured. If we play our cards right we might could get a 2nd Rd pick for Johnson.

 

I think Theilen because of his age is probably worth a 4th Rd draft pick.

Makes sense.  Bump Coker up from the practice squad and trade the vets for draft capital if we can....

Doesn't matter if we trade for picks or not. The same GM that helped get us in this position is still here. And if it was Tepper making picks and forcing the coach to keep BY starting without any real QB competition, well he's still here too. Right now we're fugged and it all starts at the top.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
