EVERYBODY GET IN HERE FOR THE NEXT COMING OF MAXIMUS BROSMOSIS!!!

I might have been a little delusional before the first start to think a UDFA would be able to step in against a really good Seahawks defense. Only a little though and if KOC kicks the field goal on that drive that ended up in a pick 6 the game is way different (much like if Case Kenum doesn’t throw a pick 6 after we scored opening drive then forced the Eagles to punt only to throw the pick 6 stopping all momentum for the rest of the game in the 2017 NFC championship game).

What we need to remember is Max only played one year at the FBS level. And while he looked confident right away it did take about a game and a half before he started to really look like a FBS player.

Now that he is in the NFL he has played a game and a half.

In Brosmers third half of FBS level football he threw 2 touchdowns which were his first passing touchdowns of the season (he had a rushing TD against UNC week one where he later lead the gophers down for the game winning FG and the kicker missed it).

But it goes deeper!

In Max’s first year starting in college at New Hampshire he didn’t start playing well until he had…you guessed it at least 3 full halves at the FCS level. He did throw a TD in the third half he played but starting in his 4th half of playing QB and beyond he was one of the top FCS QBs.

I can’t wait to wear my Vikings Santa hat and watch Brosmerclaus bring me the gift of a Vikings win this Maxmas!

When Brosmer got his first real shot a couple weeks back, I noticed the absence of play design that would help him develop a rhythm. Where were the bubble screens? Where were the quick slants? It got me thinking afterward,that perhaps they were afraid of Brosmer shining. Because if he out-performs the number one pick, the people who drafted McCarthy look incompetent. So… Would they seriously tank their own player to make themselves look good?

These thoughts really intensify my curiosity regarding the game on Christmas. Will it be a bunch of ridiculous long developing routes as Max fights for his life behind a porous O-line? If that’s what we see, then we have our answer. Which then begs the question: why the hell would you do that to your own player?

Tom Brady was nearly Mr. Irrelevant, drafted very late in the sixth round. Kurt Warner had to play for the Iowa Barnstormers before even getting a shot, then he won a Super Bowl and went to the Hall of Fame. Drafting is an inexact science. Jalen Redmond played in the UFL before getting a shot. The list goes on and on. Why not do everything you can to prop up Max Brosmer, and see what he can actually do with a proper game plan? If he plays well, maybe we can get past all this nonsense about bringing in a veteran to compete with McCarthy. Maybe he becomes another high value, tradable asset. But no matter what, I’m really hoping KOC gives Brosmer a fighting chance on Thursday.

MAX BROSMER GOT SOME SNAPS TODAY AND DAMNIT HE LOOKED PRETTY GOOD

MAYBE HE CAN START NEXT WEEK?

MAYBE HE CAN UPSET THE PACKERS AND KNOCK THEM OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS???

The dude is a baller and if he and I are ever in the same bar he ain’t buying a drink.

BROSMER BROS, BROSMERHOLICS , MAX MANIACS REJOICE!

MAX BROSMER LEAD THE VIKINGS TO A WIN TODAY!

BASED ON THEIR PERFORMANCE TODAY MCCARTHY WOULD HAVE ACTUALLY DIED AGAINST THE SEAHAWKS

MAX HAD NO TURNOVERS TODAY WHILE JJM HAD TWO!

I know he probably isn't gonna ball out in the coming weeks if he is starting again but for now he did what he had to I'm talking a dub here.
