Gopher QB


This year's offensive line will get him killed before he has a chance to develop into a halfway competent qb. If we put him out there with the current coaching and offensive line makeup, it'll probably create a PTSD scenario for him where he's entirely useless from a developmental standpoint in the long term. I'm totally disinterested in seeing him get destroyed by our upcoming opponents - save the redshirt, roll the dice on him transferring, and go all in on him next year.

Yeah well what are the chances he's even in a Gopher uniform next year. Once he figures out PJ and his staff don't have the ability to develop him he will do what Kaliakmanis did. By the way he's doing considerably better at Rutgers. I'm totally disinterested in watching this kid Brosmer play anymore.
 

At this point you know what you have in Brosmer so why not bench him and see what the freshman Drake Lindsey can do.
Against Michigan and USC, calm down with the psychedelic mushrooms. Lindsey is talented, but you dont throw him to the Sharks. We need to run the ball better. OL has to improve.
 


Brosmer sure looks like he is not able to see over the linemen. I’ll take people at their word that he is 6’2” but physically disappears in the pocket.
 

Someone said Brosmer would benefit from another year in the Big Ten.

Iowa threw stuff at him in the second half he has no Big Ten experience with until that game.

I want to see how he does in more Big Ten games. At stretches he was really good. And then he was not.

Haven't decided yet whether to rewatch the game on the DVR. If I do, this is something I'll be looking for on the offensive side. Seems to make some sense from being in person.

As for the defensive side, that slide started at the end of the first half. Unfortunately I-O-W-A got the ball at the start after halftime to just keep doing whatever they started then. Will be looking at that too.

Will do both of these unless I hit the delete button first.

Bosmer got hit most every time he attempted to pass.

In those stretches where he was really good -- ten straight completions, for example -- was there anything you noticed to explain it?

Did you notice that he had time to see the field and work through progressions? Most quarterbacks are as good as their protection allows them to be. Brosmer is no exception.
 

Against Michigan at the Big House? Behind our offensive line?
you don't want to shatter your young QB of the future's confidence? why not? seems like a solid idea.

I would be very ok with them deciding on the back half of the year to start rotating him in some at scheduled intervals (ie he gets certain drives) to give him game reps. This season is not going anywhere and the middle of schedule has some games in it that would be nice to see him get some prep for the future

Excellent observation from a guy who watches the game on TV up on his tiptoes while standing on a peach crate.
 



Year8 - AK was the cant miss kid - Morgan’s 6 year tenure did nothing to develop - bringing in a one and done guy in year 8 says a lot about where PJs program is at

OC Harbaugh couldn’t call plays to compensate for Iowa’s second half defense. Same on the other side of the ball as our DC had no answer for Iowa’s run game.
 

Brosmer played in the FCS for 4 years.
When moving up as a grad xfer, his best option was MN. I’m really not sure what exactly folks were expecting 🤷‍♂️.

He's definitely 6'2. How tall are the linemen in front of him?

Yeah, look at Pennix in the semifinals vs finals last year. You would never have known it was the same QB. He looked like Dan Marino in the semis and Demry Croft in the finals.
 

Better than Brosmer for sure.

Brosmer higher completion percentage. Brosmer has also played 50% of his games against P4 teams (one being Iowa, who has a great defense). AK vs 2 cupcakes and a VT team that lost to Vanderbilt.

I would say Brosmer has been equal to or better than AK so far.

On the eye test alone Brosmer is miles better than Kaliakmanis

A nasty, negative shot
