    No, there is no way to fix Browning

    Can't be fixed but to improve he needs to learn how to compete. Spend time in casino... Pickup games of sports. No amount of coaching can fix inability o COMPETE

    Pickup basketball games with @Tequilla in the IMA?
    Anything would help. He is like an autistic chess player that knows all the proper moves but has no grasp of what competing is
    Don't talk about Tequilla like that.

    Jake's ceiling is as a good game manager ... he lacks the skills at an elite level to be able to win a game through his own talent.

    This. He's Ken Dorsey, without Moss/Wayne

    I hate Jake more than anyone, but I think Bush will be as good of a coach for him as is possible.

    I think he will improve a bit. I don't think he'll be AMAZING but I think he will go back to being competent could possibly be even average.

    Optimism? Who the fuck are you, and what the fuck did you to to Dennis??

    I find it amusing that when the window is temporarily cracked open for UW to possibly go further than a playoff loss, Pete continues to stubbornly use a QB that can't get it done. Tick tock.

    I would too if I was you.

    I say no because Jake Browning sucks. If the receivers take a step and Bush runs Petes offense to better compliment Jakes skill set (can't believe I just wrote that) instead of multiple 40 yard throws on 3rd and 5 he might be better than this last year when he bottomed out harder than Swaye with dnc.

    I'm still finding it hard to handle the ups and downs of new play calling and possible player development. Either way it will be chinteresting.

    I don’t think Browning can be fixed into a great QB. A lot of it is confidence though. If Bush can improve his confidence, he will be better.

    Browning has played around 40 games. I think it’s pretty safe to say he is who he is.

    If Gaskin returns, he should be a game manager. He has game manager skills but we make him play outside of those skills and he gets exposed.

    fixed- the rest was unnecessary

    Yes, Browning will finally have an actual OC/QB coach
    I heard Ross is going to get cut from the Bengals, so we should be back to full offensive strength next year, EZ

    IMO Browning has the physical and mental skills to play the Captain Checkdown Alex Smith Role... and that should be fine...

    He cant win a game by himself but atleast he doesnt have a history of turning over the ball and actively losing the game too... so I guess thats good.

    I dont have any fancy stats but I do have drunken memories and I cant recall many delayed draws or RB screens this year, easy dump offs to the TE, or short crossing routes to WRs... IMO the scheme highlighted Brownings deficiencies, rather than hiding them...

    Voted yes because im a doog and there is no way a senior QB can be as unclutch as Browning has for the first 3 years of his career...right guys? Right????

    The only scheme that could have been worse for brownings skill set and abilities would be the old Bellotti Oregon run heavy spread option...

    Even with Browning's noodle arm we have skill guys in decent TEs, Gaskins, Ahmed, Chico, and a bunch of JAG WRs... UW should lead CFB in % of pass attempts of less than 10 yards

    Take into account brownings arm, the skill guys, and the pass blocking, UW's WRs should almost exclusively be running drags, shallow crosses, quick outs, curls, stops, and slants. Instead we get slot go routes and fades on 3rd and 1.

    Its not mechanical. Its in his head. I would try electro-shock therapy. If that doesn't work, then maybe he can't be fixed.

    I hate having to chin an Ewa post. But I will when it's clearly warranted.
