gilthorp Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Handcuffed with Osborne, but I'd prefer Thielen if he's healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(For my son's team) He's not lucky enough to have Osborn. Depending on what time the news goes out the choices would be either DeSean Jackson, but he plays at 5 pm and probably won't know about Thielen by then, Boston Scott or Reagor for the Tuesday games. There's nothing else out there from the Monday or Tuesday games. We get points for return yards, so that could help Reagor by a point or 2. I'll have to check the WW again.

stevegrab Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 A Vikings based web site had an article on Saturday saying his trajectory changed towards starting, that a source told them he'd be playing Monday. https://vikingsterritory.com/2021/general-news/adam-thielens-trajectory-for-mnf-changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fastdoc Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 But if he goes with a sore ankle, would he be limited? I suspect if he's in it is simply to draw coverage and Jefferson (or Osborn) will have a good night, although the latter seems boom/bust. Then again, it's the Bears so the offense may not have to much work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcat Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 My fear is that he is active, but not much more than a decoy. Worst scenario is starting him and getting few receptions and minimal yards. I'd almost rather they bench him so I can get on with my business of figuring out whether Njoku is his best replacement or someone else. Pretty thin player pool with only 4 games left. At least there is a player pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeductiveNun Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Yep. I don’t have Thielen but I do have Osborn. If Thielen is active, I need to make the call of rolling the dice with KJ, or scrape up a body from tomorrows games. It’s almost looking like my best bet would be Gerald Everett then.

gilthorp Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 The Bears aren't in very good shape for tonight. Lost their best CB Johnson, and Eddie Jackson as well. In my opinion, a 70% Thielen is going to be just fine. If he goes, I have to play him, even though this is a monster game for Jefferson.

You should still play Osborn. JMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
