I occasionally checked in on him while he was at A&M, hoping he would blow up and become a great NFL prospect.  This is awesome.  I feel like his dad doesn’t get enough love for how great of a player he was.  I certainly hope lil Moose eventually gets on the roster…  this is the stuff movies are made of.

Cause he played for us and the Bears lol.  He was a very good starter for a relatively long time.

hes pretty good.  has a shot. WR room is crowded.  people may not like it but theilen may get traded to eliminate the tunnel vision to him from Bryce

It won't be to eliminate Bryce's tunnel vision, but unless we're legitimate playoff contenders at the deadline, I'd be shocked if Thielen isn't traded during the season.

I can't see any way he is a Panther next season, he either retires or signs with a contender for one final shot at a ring.  So if that's the case, we're not legit playoff contenders, and he's playing well, I do think some contending team that could use a steady WR will give us like a 4th for him at the deadline hoping it will be the last piece to the SB puzzle they need.

Keep Thielen around through camp and the early season to help the young guys get up to speed, then if we can get a 4th for a guy who won't be back next year you jump all over it and then go out and sign whoever the best vet FA on the market is to replace Thielen's mentorship in the WR if needed (maybe Renfrow after he doesn't make the final 53 in the end?)

Crazy. I was with Moose about 22 or 23 years ago in Charleston. He was signing autographs at the Bank of America Panther Caravan Tour meet and greet... I was the last guy to speak with Moose, and he apologized and said he had to go. His wife just went into labor. As he was walking he grabbed my stuff and signed it as he walked off. I congratulated him, and he thanked me. I was with his dad on his birthday. 

You definitely need to bring your gear to training to get Lil Moose to sign it too. That would be the coolest poo ever!

Oh, man. Hearing "Muhammad!" from the play by play announcer just unlocked a core memory for me. That brought me right back to the call of the 85-yarder in the Super Bowl, which just lives deeply in my psyche.

"Looking. Looking. Gonna go deep. Has his man WIDE OPEN. It's Muhammad. MUHAMMAD! To the 15, 10, 5, Touchdown!"

 

Okay, I now have an active rooting interest in him making this roster. I need that back in my life.

Rooting for him. Was just reading up, doesn't seem like he got a lot of opportunities. Seems like his mental game is what he will have to overcome. Hopefully being close to home lets him focus. A little insight ( second hand, just what I saw posted ) : 

 

 

He has all the skills but was nonexistent under two different coaching staffs. He butted heads and was benched under Jimbo (for wearing sleeves under his uniform after the coaching staff told him not to 🙄). Then under the new staff, he rarely saw the field – he had just 55 yards last season.

When he saw the field, he either made the most impressive play of the game or would get an unsportsmanlike penalty. Just a bizarre case because he has the talent.

 

 

 

Aggie here to provide some insight. As the other poster mentioned, Moose had a weird time at A&M and it didn't help that Jimbo's offense was painful and wide receivers never seemed to excel. His third year was promising but he was also competing with Evan Stewart, Noah Thomas, and Chase Lane who I'm pretty sure were all 5*s. Also Ainais Smith and Devon achane ran majority of the offense.

That said, going into his last year with Jimbo, a couple guys like Lane and Achane left, and most Ags thought this would be the year Moose really steps up. Unfortunately as the other poster mentions, he disappeared into misconduct and coaching change.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
