vike daddy Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 2 hours ago, The Gnat said: I wonder if Thielen might see about catching on with a team like the Chiefs or Bills to get a ring. I could see him wanting to do that as well. I'm thinking the Bills lost their window. Going to them might be no different than being in Minny - a team with plenty of wins that bombs out in the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that either team needs to make a play for Thielen. I assume Thielen is looking for playing time and money if he can get it, even if it means not playing on a team with a premier QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted March 14, 2023 Author Share Posted March 14, 2023 We'll have to see the impact of some of their losses, but I'd still take the Bills defense over either the Chiefs or Bengals...so if Allen can get his stuff together in the playoffs, they should be in prime position again to make noise. I actually do think it's the Chiefs that are going to take a step back...they made it work this year, but it's going to be difficult to repeat it with the defense they have, which isn't great. It's competent, but it's not great. So, if I were Thielen, I'd have no issues with going to Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A not as talented cook, Thielen hurt every other drive, and Diggs throwing tantrums, but a better QB. could be an interesting combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeybrowner47 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 This makes me sad. I was really hoping he’d sign with Buffalo or Kansas City so he could get a ring. At his age this contract all but guarantees he’ll retire without one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcticNorseman Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Good for Adam! I guess he'll get to play with a hot young rookie QB? I'm not sure how SB-ready the Panthers are, but I think their D is reasonably solid. Beyond that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
