Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

So Browning is a sophomore

and I really dont see him leaving early for the NFL after next year. He is a pretty thin guy and seems to struggle when CBs or d line are good enough to throw off timing routes.

He struggled against USC, Colorado, and Bama. A lot.

Granted, our WRs are not physical and each looked about 30 lbs lighter than the Bama DBs. They could not get seperatation outside that one awesome post route by Pettis. The o line is scrappy, but really young. Maybe next year they could hold up better to Bama when Harris gets some more time in the weight room and roids.

We also abandoned the run way too soon. Yeah we werent breaking off 15 yard runs, but we were making it beyond the line of scrimmage for 2-3 yards with Gaskin and Coleman. You need to stick with it and those runs go for more late in the game when people are tired.

Im kind of rambling, but my point is this...is Browning a hindrance to the offense going forward? Or is his inefficiency in big time games more a product of sub par play calling, young o line, and lack of receiver seperatation?

    I think he could still get a little better. He made a big step this year. He's a lot better than what we have had recently but he isn't a national championship QB. Only way we win one with him is a Alabama caliber defense and O line. With that you could really almost plug any QB in to start and win a NC.

    Agree, which seems unlikely in the 2 more years he is gonna be in the program. Will our line get better? Yes, too many young players starting for ot not to. Will it ever be good enough to allow us to win an NC? I doubt it.

    The playcalling definitely lost us the SC game. Against Bama I dont see a scenario we win without forcing 3 turnovers

    He's going to win 24 games at least over the next 2 years. We'lol have to wait until we get a bigger armed QB and the OL improves.

    Thing is, I don't see a scenario outside of injury where any other QB steps in over Jake in the next two years. It just doesn't happen. He's put up some numbers but definitely needs to step up (HGH) this offseason to take it to the next level.

    Do I think it happens? 50/50 at best, worse odds of Smiff is still around. I think JAKE is a known quantity at this point and we need to look to other positions (coaching/OL) for areas of realistic improvement for next season.

    You really think we stomp the conference and get 12 wins the next 2 years? I hope we do, and we have the coaching staff to do it, but that is hard to do
    I'm not one for hyperbole. I think we will. Yes. Our D is way ahead of the PAC with the exception of SC. We don't play SC the next 2 years. Soft OOC schedule. So yes, I think 24 should be the figure.

    I hope you are right. We need to throw a lot of money at Kwiatkawski and Lake. They are amazing coaches

    Smiff is ruining Browning. Those who can't see it are blinder than Grandpa Sankey.
