Adam is due for some regression this year but sure we can blame it on the qb

Wasn't Thielen's first TD in London last year?

Re: Theilen/Cousins connection problem?
Take this for whats it worth, but my neighbor has a cousin who works for the purple. Word is, Theilen has been becoming increasingly disenfranchised with the Vikes due to his contract, and more importantly Diggs contract.
I guess this all stems from he was starting to be given daily updates on Brison's posts here on RC. Coming into the season he was happy and knew he was one half of a dynamic duo of WRs and part of the perhaps the best starting tandem in the league. Slowly, however, he began realizing from Brison's posts that he actually is clearly the best WR we have, and Diggs shouldnt have gotten more money than he did, and what a colossal mistake it was to have paid Diggs that kind of money.
I am hearing he may now holdout if we dont address the contract, or unless Brison tells him its ok Diggs got paid.

Yeah that’s BS. He would have needed to held out already.

Re: Theilen/Cousins connection problem?
It's obvious that Spielman told Cousins about not letting Thielen shine so that Rick can sign him to a cheaper contract.

Re: Theilen/Cousins connection problem?
I listened to Theilen on KFAN a few weeks ago and they brought up digs contract and Theilen was really cool about it and pretty much said hey I'm happy that I'm already making millions and can take care of my family. Not sure I buy your guys cousins story. No reason for him to cause a stir right now. Seems like a next offseason issue if its a issue at all.

You sure? It seems like a pretty solid reference, based on a totally logical scenario.Seenin wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 12:31 pm I listened to Theilen on KFAN a few weeks ago and they brought up digs contract and Theilen was really cool about it and pretty much said hey I'm happy that I'm already making millions and can take care of my family.

Re: Theilen/Cousins connection problem?
We don't know for sure. But he was so natural in his response I was impressed. Maybe he's a good liar and in comparison if he has another solid season then he deserves a pay raise. Not every player is all about the money though. Gotta remember this guycomes from a small MN town and plays for his favorite team and his current pay scale trumps any of us. If he invests 1 million of his 5 he could live off the interest. Not every player is cut from the same cloth but if he ends up asking for a similar contract I would not blame him.

Cousins was micd last week, and I think the comment was directed towards Thielen when he said something like "just do what you do, and I won't miss you when you're open like I did last week."

Adam Thielen is leading the NFL in receiving yards after week 5, pending the Monday night game.
Kirk Cousins is 2nd in passing yards.

Re: Theilen/Cousins connection problem?
It might be because Thielen is allegedly is Minnesota. Jack Buck today mentioned that he thought Thielen was from Minnesota and that Thielen went to college in Minnesota. Maybe they are having a hard time understanding each other or getting along because they are from different worlds.
