    Also, Browning threw another pick while in the red zone after he came back in that got called an incompletion while being a four-year starter yet a guy a defense would still all out blitz on any third down.

    Also, fuck you for getting me to rewatch the highlights of that game.

    Also, just because teammates "love this guy" it doesn't make him great. I got into an argument (true story) with an older and fatter Kenny Easley when I suggested that the Hawks took too long to bench Krieg back in the day. Yeah, stupid move on my part. The love was deep for ol' Mudbone, but he sucked at the time and his teammates -- even many years later -- didn't want to hear any criticism about their boy.

    It's common. In fact, I think if you secretly polled all the current players on UW, they'd say Dylan Morris should be the QB. They love him.

    That said, Browning did some great things. But he had four years so he should have done some great things.

    Locker was the ultimate cock tease

    Didn't FINISH

    He was a great talent but avg qb. Would have looked great for chip Kelly though.
    The oft maligned Rick would have used him like Tui. Which would have been great
    We could have won a Natty with a 50/50 hybrid of Rick and Pete.
    A Rick type taking over in 2018 or 19 when Pete burned out would have been ideal. Guy was a disaster long-term but the perfect guy to take over a team that was talented and disciplined but who had been worn out a bit by the previous staffs.
    We need to quit fucking with a proven formula.

    Lockner was awesome. Fuck the haters.

    He would have beat USC in 2016.
    I wonder what he would have done on those Browning led teams. Browning was a pain in the ass but he was a winner. But Lockner had the multiple threat that makes it like you have twelve players on offense
    Was there ever a game where you went "Without Browning we lose that game".?
    Without a QB playing and only fielding 10 men, we’d have lost all the games for which he was here. HTH.

    I didn't say he was great. But you'd think he was the worst quarterback to ever step on the field if all you read was Hardcore Husky, and that's not even remotely true. He was a good college quarterback. Certainly the best at Washington in a long-ass time.

    Let's debate - Cobra Jack Browning Top 5 Husky QB all-time? I have a hard time saying yes or no.

    Seriously, we might have been in the running for a Rose Bowl berth in 2010
