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

Is it really Browning’s fault?

Peterson didn’t recruit for him one Single NFL caliber receiver to throw to this year?

    UW is supposed to be an elite team in a Power 5 conference. Petersen didn’t recruit one single NFL WR for this team. Not one.

    Zero.

    Oregon State didnt seem to fail like that. Nor did Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, USC, ASU

    Aaron Fuller and the Oprea Singer were our leading receivers. Fix WR recruiting. It sucks right now.


    Jake Browning fucking sucks stop.

    Not too many heady, gym rat, first in last out type wide receivers out there to choose from. It's hard.

    Mickens may have caught more than he dropped but browning probably threw more backs behind his receivers than in front of them. Browning was shit with ross and Pettis - he just had better looking stats. A quarterback who requires receivers to make circus catches constantly is shit. While wr recruiting should have been better that wasn't going to improve Jake's timing or accuracy.

    Cool story, bro.

    You do realize Jakes completion % is top 25 in the country, right? 30 more pass completions over a season he’d be #1 ahead of Jack Abraham of Southern Mississippi State.

    You don’t think recruiting ONE of Alabama’s( or tOSU, OSU, UO, ASU, ... etc.) NFL recievers would have helped him get 30 more completions?

    8 more completions, on the Season, Browning is top 10 in the Country.

    Eight.

    Wow, now you're using a hypothetical statistic to try and justify browning. While we're spouting nonsense, maybe we actually recruited a bunch of nfl caliber receivers but jake sabotaged their careers by being terrible and his completion percentage would be last in the country if not for them.

    Noc what goes completion percentage was. That is an aggregate number that doesn't tell you what actually happened. Let me guess - you think Fresno state and ucf are better than Georgia because they had more wins right?

    If you were an NFL caliber receiver, would you have wanted to play for a team with Browning as the QB?

    Another cool story, bro. But, let’s get back to football shall we?

    NFL drafts talent. Speed, size, athleticism. If we had NFL talent on this roster, why is it hidden from the experts? Why do the see it on Oregon States roster, for instance but can’t find it here?

    Browning, simply, is the most successful QB in any 4 year span of Washington football, based on Wins. Could he have been better if he had a single NFL caliber WR to throw to this year?

    Weird take, following a string of many weird takes from you this last week. Anyways, most of us were saying Browning sucked when it looked more like Ross was catching pop ups like a center fielder instead of catching go routes in stride. It’s not the receivers. HTH.
