Speaking of Thielen catches, the one he made just before the fumble was ffing amazing.  

For those that think he should be cut for someone younger, well that is beyond foolish.  

He's this team's version of Ricky Proehl.

He was amazing tonight. We saw that catch live and it was electric. Shame Chuba screwed up on the next play. It’s almost disrespectful to fumble after Thielen’s catch to keep the drive alive and get into FG range. It really hurt realizing we saw potentially our best play of the year get completely wasted one play later.

Exact same as the hail mary against Atlanta couple of years ago. From the highest high to the lowest low in 30 seconds

Proehl wasn’t on Thielen’s level.

I think Mr Scott was just referring to Thielen being a veteran presence who doesn't have super speed, but knows how to get open and makes the clutch catches, and not so much to the skill levels of the individual players.  

And Proehl had two really good receivers beside him (Steve Smith and Moose).  Thielen is going to get more targets because the rest of the receiving group isn't at that level.

Thielen still has a decent amount left in the tank. He's far from washed, and plays like yesterday, or even the Raiders TD where he hurt himself show that. He's the vet presence we need to keep around next year, because then...

Sign Higgins or draft TMac 

Thielen

XL

Coker 

JT/Tremble/FA TE

Brooks out of the backfield

      Legette is killing us

      I get what you're saying, and to a large extent I agree, but I'm not sure what our #1 overall pick is supposed to do when good/great throws are hitting WRs/TEs in the hands and they're dropping them. That's been the state of things these last 3-4 weeks. I'm not sure why you're on this crusade to defend every player on this team not named Bryce Young from criticism as if Bryce is the one and only problem on this team.

      What Exactly Caused Bryces Turnaround?

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Someone, something, somewhere helped him to get his head right. A knowledge deficit would not have been overcome to this level this quickly. Likewise for physical. His give a damn was shattered. I’m sure Andy has played a large roll, but it’s more than just that. It’s hard to ask for a better mentor. Maybe he’ll open up at some point.

      "Bryce hater" here and I could be wrong, but his football journey involved him being one of the best players wherever he went, and surrounded by all the best players. I don't know if it's entitlement or overconfidence, but that mindset didn't translate to the NFL. Maybe he put a lot of pressure on himself being the #1 overall pick, but his demeanor his first 18 games of his NFL career exhibited someone who didn't care. Maybe after his benching it gave him some much needed maturity and perspective.  He's definitely a different player on the field now and I hope he continues to grow. I went from team Stroud, to cautiously optimistic Bryce supporter, to cut and trading that fool, to now a Bryce defender. The guy has earned my support by the way he has handled the benching and actually growing from the experience.
