Tequilla Manifesto: Jake Browning, GLOVES OFF
Comments

I can understand if people wanted to give Jake a shot this year. I was fully done with him after USC last year.
I didn’t like him after his freshman year that much (the choking), but was pleased with what looked like improvement against Stanford in particular.
But it looks like that was an anomaly and he was always what I first thought. There are many times that doesn’t happen (Coleman Shelton), but in this case he sucked from game 1 and there were optimists and that’s fine.
But Teq has said it right. He sucks. It’s over. -
I hated Jake before it was cool to hate him

Disagree on entering Doog Zone. Doogs have low expectations, and nothing I said implies this. My expectation remains that we should win conference in spite of Jake, and if we don't the season is a disappointment (more so if we don't take the North at minimum). One can be a Posi Dawg and still have high expectations.PurpleBaze said:

in spite ofJake Browning sucking, we're still going to be playing meaningful football games in October in November, something many here have only seen once previously in their adult lives. So, I'm going to put my head in the sand and hope for the best. I can't show up to Husky Stadium at 1230PM later this month stressing out about Jake. So the Defense better do it's fucking job as Pete said and score points and get us fucking turnovers.
I'm a lot more cynical than you. Jake isn't going to magically grow a pair and the OC is what he is.
It's up to Petersen to retool the team. It's going to take a Don James post 1986 Sun Bowl type of paradigm shift.
I don't think Pete is in need to a late 80's Don James level paradigm shit. Yes, we could tighten up the offense some and make it less overly analytical, but recruiting better at QB, WR and OL is ultimately what is going to get us to the next level. Non bed shitting QB and some bad ass receivers and we're not even having this conversation; and that's with the current level of OL talent.
All that being said, Jake Browning sucks. -

Totally agree with simplifying the offense. Like I mentioned in a post a day or two ago; keep it simple, stupid. Pete is smart enough to have realized by now how much Browning sucks. He has a weak mind to go with his weak arm. The shit-show passing strategy needs to be scrubbed.YellowSnow said:

Pete should also know by now that Smith cannot game-plan AND he can't make adjustments. He keeps doing the same shit over and over again even if it's not working.

It’s great to say that I’m employing selective data ... the problem is that Jake’s performance in tight games is an utter disaster. There’s no way around that.
I’d love for the data to say that Jake isn’t a front running bitch ...
Unfortunately the data shows that when he gets punched in the mouth he almost never gets up off the mat and responds.
That’s not opinion ... that’s factual at this point. -
Pete's apparent blind spot on this is baffling.PurpleBaze said:

Okay, I read it and it was good.

It would really be a dick move to quote the entire article and disagree
