Overpaid?  The man is putting up Pro Bowl numbers.  He's the best FA investment Fitterer made this offseason and one of the best in franchise history.

Fitterer deserves a lot of blame right now, but signing Theilen has kept this season from being more of a cluster.  Theilen's earned every penny and more.

Right, hes on pace for over 100 catches, like 1400-1500 yards and 10 TDs.

He's good, but putting up better numbers than he would be if we had anyone else resembling an NFL-caliber WR on the roster.

Still, the fact that at his age he's the only viable receiving threat on the team and can still produce even though defenses know that is impressive.

I'm not dinging him because of his situation. He's doing his job, and he's doing it well. Other receivers wouldn't be, and honestly aren't as good of a route runner as Thielen has been over his career. The transition from the outside to the slot has been seamless. It's exactly how you want to do it. Hats off to him!

His skill set will allow him to play for another 3-5 years if he so chooses. Love that guy. 
 

These young guys can gain so much from him if they have the work ethic and want to. 

That was my hope when we signed him that these young guys could learn from a guy who's not the biggest or fastest how to create their own separation. Not sure if that will happen or not, but they should be.

Only guy Bryce trusts rn. I really was looking forward to the chemistry that 9 was forming with 15 and 17 during TC and preseason, but they have been a disappointment thus far. 

Hopefully Brown can unlock the code to get these other NPCs activated on gamedays.

    • Yeah I hear you man but this is not a litmus test for OUR character. All the sucking it up in the world won’t affect anything about that football team and the issue of a failed draft deal.  The point is would you want to go back to that steakhouse? I mean, no you probably don’t. I don’t have to suck that up. I am free to lobby and critique as it moves me, same as you. I am saying I don’t the team to go back to a crappy steakhouse lol. 
    • Dealing with the now and building a foundation to build a future upon would have been a great sign of change and a serious attempt to turn this thing around. Those guys that were all fired were also pitching the future. Rhule's 7 year plan and last year's platoff team while taking a still weak NFCS were just more of the same. You already answered you own question. 2 win teams don't usually develop projects well, stable and well run teams do. That is not close to the Panthers at this time. The future doesn't matter if it looks like the recent past for them.
    • Honestly I think you are more sensitive to other people’s opinions a little more than I am in the sense that the lack of a tie and the disciplining that resulted didn’t make me think much besides someone was being an asshole. And I don’t care if other people don’t think that; it won’t really change how I view it. They are free to think it. WTF does CMC have to do with it? I am sorry I don’t get it.  And I don’t see people talking about Darnold vs Cam the way you say. I really just think you might be looking and waiting for a chance to be taking some umbrage with stuff that seems to me is really fairly isolated and not reflective of how most of us think. Maybe you think we think that way? No offense really, I am just not seeing what you are seeing. If I say a criticism of a player I promise it is not motivated by some agenda other than football ands winning. Or losing wtf it is the Panthers. If that changes I will for sure preface what I say with my reasons for saying it.  And I know what saying this stuff may lead to in terms of characterization language but I hope it doesn’t.
