Don't rewrite history to fit your agenda. The Vikings hoped to sneak him through waivers and they were pissed when the Chiefs claimed him.
Last year, in his second year in the NFL, Thigpen passed for 2608 yards with 18 TDs and 12 INTs.
So you think this guy is a loser? Well, let me tell you the story of another loser. In his second year in the NFL, he passed for 2598 yards with 18 TDs and 15 INTs.
His name is John Elway.
I'm not saying Tyler Thigpen is John Elway. But it's freaking reeruned to completely dismiss what he accomplished last year on a team with no offensive line, no running game, and no defense.
Let me repeat that so that there is no misunderstanding. The Thigpen haters are reeruns.
