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

The harshest condemnation of Browning...

...is that this was actually one of the very best games he’s played at Washington. He was less indecisive (until the final series). He converted many tough third downs in a very hostile environment. His deep balls were brisk and on target. He even ran effectively when he had to.

For me, his performance against Auburn ranks up there with his Stanford ‘16 and his Oregon ‘16. This is what peak Browning looks like. And it’s not good enough to win a playoff-type game.

    The whole first quarter I’m screaming make a decision and throw the ball! Then he got better and played about as well as he can until the speed option call. Almost got a first down after the OPI and we had first and 25. Two third down conversions made, but had we failed at those the game wasn’t over. Still had time for a stop.

    Once the clock got low and it was do or die, locked back up.

    Are there really any teams we can’t beat with either Haener or the freshmen? Get them some experience. We’ve seen The current QB’s ceiling. Let’s find out the ceilings of the other ones.

    Tough as nails yet seems to brain lock. I don't think it's fear. It's terminal though


    It’s like he visualizes the possible mistake before the possible success on these critical plays. By the time he processes, it is to late. I know the QB needs to be mindful but he also needs to trust and let it go.

    He should be able to do these things. We act like it's a miracle he makes any plays at all. He's started like 40 games. He choked like he always does.
    LOL

    You guys have definitely succeeded in lowering the bar for browning here, that's for sure.

    Hamner doesn't need experience. He's selling the couch after this year
