It sucks a lot but we need to evaluate the younger guys and see what we have. 

If they end up being nothing, we need to pivot again at WR in the offseason.

Agreed

Now that Dalton’s playing there really isn’t a reason for Thielen to be out there. Like you said, we really need to see what we have in Mingo (especially) but XL as well

You mean a reason other than wanting to win football games?

We aren’t winning the Super Bowl this year

This staff keeps pushing the whole developmental thing so having a 36 year old WR out there while our 1st round rookie WR that we traded up for sits on the bench doesn’t do us a ton of favors long term

Jeez, 1 win and some of you completely change course. Tepper is the same way

I broke this yesterday, in a random thread. Anish confirmed this was a hamstring during the game on the radio broadcast. Obviously there was no prognosis but, as a 33 year old white guy with probably 60% the athleticism of Theilen, I can confirm that a hamstring injury would hurt, and would continue to hurt for longer than if I were 22. 
 

Therefore, I agree with the MD’s timeline of “I have no f’n clue, you’re 30 something bro, why are you playing a game?”

Thielen is a warm security blanket for any Panther QB.  He catches the ball when thrown to him and moves the chains.  When it’s third and 7, he’s money good.

[How are you going to evaluate what you have on offense when the team is perpetually three and out?]

Because I'm a god damn carnival psychic that's how. Good enough for you?

OK, then what carnival will I be attending in the near future? 

Normally, I stay out of spats, but I like to say things that are so stupid, people pause to make sure they heard it correctly, show empathy towards whatever happened to me, and to decide whether or not my statement deserves a response.  In that pause, I claim victory.

Oh it wasn't a spat. I was in a rush to get my kid this morning out the door for school and I was fooling with the site and saw his question. I didn't feel like explaining myself how I get that feeling so I just told him I was a carny. Seemed like the most simple answer.

How I know though is working with him personally the past 3 years before anybody knew who he was and watching him grow as a player as well as seeing his insane work ethic day in and day out. Speaking to him a few weeks ago and hanging out at our alma mater during a home game on the sidelines I could see a very motivated young man to prove any skeptics wrong. I'm obviously biased due to our ties to the school and our history together but the guy is going to make a mark eventually and get acclimated day by day and week by week. 

The final judgement is not out on Mingo either. We shall see how he does with a different QB throwing his way. He is far from bust category yet no matter what some others may think already. Development sometimes takes the right situation around a player with the right support even with factoring in a players solid inner drive and work ethic.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
