I think the competition is between Rypien and Howell, they're not keeping two vet backups. Neither has been overly impressive so wouldn't be surprised no matter which they keep.

They simply do not play alike at all, but if Brosmer was in the NFL as long I'm sure he'd be happy with it. Only similarities really are there were UDFA and don't have an Elway level arm? I mean there are a ton examples of those guys that have bounced around the NFL.

I don't think the comparison is very good. Brosmer seems to have a little better arm, throws with anticipation better (at least so far), and make the smart play a more than YOLOing. Keenum got away with a lot of bad decisions that season for the Vikings and was more of a risk taker than Max...

I don't think he's ready to start but if you're at a point where QB3 has to play, I'm about as confident in him as you can be with QB3.

I think he's already on the roster as QB3. I think the only remaining QB battle is if they like Rypien or Howell as the QB2 or if they go out and find a different QB2. I 100% feel good about if we had to start Brosmer for 1 game they might be able win with him, not sure if I want him as a long...

I don't if I would go that far yet but I think I have seen enough that I think it's a possibility now. I could see him being one of those backups that gets hyped a lot and he's sitting behind JJ. Somebody really hard up for a QB a couple years from now might toss some picks at the Vikes for him...

Max looked pretty good again. Little harder to tell because a lot of blitzing and worse OL play but I think he still looked pretty good given the situation. I think I would be more comfortable with him as the QB2 than Howell at this point. Not saying either is the best situation though.

Yes, Dalton in his prime is what I believe his Ceiling is and even Dalton in his prime is "Good". And that's the ceiling. Who's busting your chops? I'm just stating that Sanders is at best going to be a "solid" QB. That's if he reaches full potential, most QBs do not. Chances are he does not...

Yes, but very mediocre for his career and I'm saying that's his ceiling.

I wasn't comparing anyone other than saying they all had character issues. Not the same issues but they all had character issues. And Jamarcus Russell and Manziel are similar in character but at least Russell actually had the raw talent so that was more understandable why someone might take a...

Yes, Mayfield and Manziel come to mind but I take that the NFL learned a lesson on those two that you don't take QBs that high with that serious of character flaws. Maybe if Mayfield and Manziel not been the way they were relatively soon to Sanders he may have gotten less heat for his attitude...

Typing on my phone went wrong. But roap in fact has the same definition as rope. It's just not used anymore.

He was an alternate in 2011 & 2014. 2011 80 rating, 20 TD 13 INT 2014 83 rating 19 TD 17 INT 2016 92 rating 18 TD 8 INT Pro Bowls don't mean shit. He was mediocre in 2 of those 3 seasons and little better than average the 3rd. Also, by most metrics besides yards he was usually in the...

They're not keeping two Vet QBs. It will be JJ and probably Howell and if they keep a 3rd it will probably be Max. They traded for Howell so they like him and he has actual experience, plus looked solid in the game. At this point I think it would be JJ, Howell, Max. Outside of that maybe they...

If they keep three and JJ, Howell, Rypien, and Brosmer are the ones to choose from it makes sense. Rypien and Howell are both vet backups, I think you have them in training camp as you want one to be your backup to JJ and the other one will be cut. Makes sense to keep the younger project type...

I was critical of the arm as from Gophers games he didn't look like he had much velo but now I think he was taking quite a bit off of it in order to make the ball more catchable for college level players. I think he has a good enough arm for the NFL. Not a good arm, but good enough. If you don't...

Can imagine some young dudes looking at each other "Bro?" other guy "Bro?", both together "BROOOOOOSMER!" while downing a couple beers Stone Cold Steve Austin style. 😂

The thing about him is he has "enough" talent to play in the NFL but he tries to make plays like he's Patrick Mahomes. In college, you're going to get away with that a lot more than in the NFL. I think he's likely to be a turnover machine in the NFL. If he focused more on making the right play...

Yeah, I'm not one of these guys that gets hyped up by likely practice squad guys. And yes, it's preseason but if you want to be more than a practice squad guy first step is to look good in camp and preseason games. So far he's done well in both. Not saying he's a sure thing but for a UDFA QB...

Yes, but he never really looked as solid as Max has so far. There have been Gophers QBs that floated around the practice squad before but Max legit looks like he could be good enough to actually play.
