Okay - motherfucker - let’s recap... Jake Browning choked the life out of everyone associated with UW football like a suburban boa constrictor in a weed haze for fucking four painful years —HIS FIRST GAME I DESTROYED MY OWN TV AND IT NEVER GOT BETTER—
He was QB equivalent to when a hot chick gets a pixie cut. It’s like - it’s kind of cute for a second... but enough. Let’s go with what works...
Jake had like 8 quarters of good football in his CAREER.
He’s fat and has a shit arm.

All I know is I saw him throw a pass last fall in the scrimmage they hold for the season ticket holders before the season started. He made a throw from the far hash to the WR (Can't remember who it was, one of the young kids) that was on a line that dropped into his hands, over pretty decent coverage, without having to break stride. I think we measured it as 55 yards in the air, plus the cross field. Looked like he barely tried. Was the best throw I've seen since a young lad from Puyallup used the Hand of God to propel our mighty Dwags over the Devils in the desert. (Just about our last win down there. Fucking Bitchfork)RealRhino said:Finally watched a game of Eason's from his freshman year. I don't know about which players will have more of an impact, whatever that means, but I think we need to temper expectations for Eason. Based on what I saw:
-Downfield accuracy is not great. Tends to "push" the ball and throws a fairly flat ball, so often overthrows deep attempts and loses accuracy when touch or arc is required. If you were thinking, "Thank God, we're finally going to see deep and intermediate passes all over the field" like I was, think we need to think again. His main game was underneath stuff. Slants, quick outs, crossing routes, curls, etc. Think I saw him through two fade routes and one go in the whole game, completing (and coming close at all, really) on 1 of 3.
- Enough athleticism to escape pressure. And can at least throw the ball away so he won't eat it or throw it right to the other team like Browning.
- Mostly a one-read guy. Didn't see the field all that well. Will concentrate on primary route concepts and fire away rather than looking for other guys coming open. That's great for getting rid of the ball and picking up 6-8 yards, but will often miss guys deeper downfield.
- Didn't really use checkdown (RBs) guys.
- One HUGE benefit is the ball gets out to WRs on screens FAST, and same for little out routes, etc. Guys had time to catch, turn, look, run. I could see guys like Chico, Ahmed, Lowe, and the Opera Singer getting great YAC opportunities.
Bottom line, I really hope Bush has been teaching him to see the field better and throw with some touch. If not, we'll basically have last year's offense, but at least it will be with a guy who trusts his arm enough to fire away with even six inches of separation. So all those times I was yelling at the TV, "Throw it! Get rid of it! Now it's too late!" will be replaced by, "Ugh, did he not see Ty running free down the sideline on the other side?!?"
That's all I need to go on. Guy has a hose, and can use it. 13-0. Cook it! -
So an upgrade...great.RoadDawg55 said:
My guess is Eason is pretty good, but not great. He’ll have an up and down season before going pro.chuck said:

He's had a full season of watching a Georgia QB do it better than him, and a full season of brownsox shitting himself. I assume there's been some time in the film room too.
He was a true frosh and should be a lot better. He's a shitty transfer QB who lost his last job until he proves otherwise though.
And...he's not brownsox for the reasons you mentioned. That's huge. -

RE: the pixie cut - I had one...once. Got it after a particularly bad breakup because that’s how lots of us lady folk like to cope with heartache...make drastic changes to our hair.
One guy I knew (who I eventually ended up dating), saw my new look the following day. All the color drained from his face and he simply said, “oh Doog_de_Jour, NO.”
That pissed me off, and I doubled down by putting a bunch of product in my hair to make it spiked (REMEMBER I WAS IN DEEP EMOTIONAL PAIN!), so I ended up looking super butch.
Several days later some employee at the HUB called me “sir”. I told my guy aquatintance about this and how I was going to grow my hair out. He said, “oh thank God.” When my hair reached shoulder length again, he finally asked me out.
CSB. -
