QB Max Brosmer, MIN (4 Viewers)

This will be very interesting. If he moves this offense on Sunday... there will be a lot of whispering going on in MIN behind "Nine's" back.

Before I spend the next 48 hours posting some insane Max Brosmer propaganda let me get one serious statement out of the way: Brosmer looked great this summer and making the team as a UDFA rookie is impressive as hell. I have no idea what to expect Sunday but it’s unlikely he goes out there in his first NFL start and looks like we found Brock Purdy regardless of how impressive he was in camp/pre-season.

That being said he’s throwing for 400 yards and 5 TDs.

#Vikings QB Max Brosmer says he prides himself on being the “most prepared player on the field” at all times, leveraging his mind to compensate for not being the most athletic or strongest:

“I was never the most athletic guy, never the strongest guy, but I felt like I can do it better with my mind on the field. That’s playing NFL quarterback in my opinion… There’s gonna be ups and downs, but it’s about mental resilience in the game.”

Max Brosmer (Minnesota) is probably my favorite Day 3 QB. Absolute machine on intermediate throws and is by far the best anticipatory passer that I’ve watched. I’d draft him just to specialize as my 3rd & medium QB.
 
I highly considered playing Max over Faileb Williams today. I am not being hyperbolic either. I know Max has a tough matchup but he has the unknown factor and looked better in preseason than JJM. I actually think Max will be an upgrade for the wide receivers and even Hockenson. FWIW, JT O had some great things to say about him: https://www.austindailyherald.com/s...brosmer-could-thrive-for-the-vikings-b81e1bb7

People are comparing him to Purdy. I am not so sure about that, but Max could be a good stash for superflex and especially dynasty. In dynasty, if he balls out, he could end up being the man next year and beyond (if he keeps it up).

Every Max Brosmer throw from Vikings' preseason finale: 15 of 23, 161 yards, 1 TD (and one 40-yard drop).

Impressive stuff from the undrafted rookie.

#Vikings HC Kevin O’Connell says Max Brosmer has a “twitchy quick release” with “the ability to be pretty accurate” at both the underneath and intermediate parts of the football field:

“I think there’s going to be opportunities, for whoever is playing QB in this game, to just hunt completions.”

Also he did some impressive work against the Titans first team defense in the preseason. Quick release and throws it fast. Would be curious how many MPH he throws the football.
 
Grabbed him in a dynasty SF league about 2 weeks ago and thus it has come to pass that he gets his opportunity. Tbh some of the chat in here is making me a little excited, given how bad McCarthy has been.
 
This sounds promising (from the link)

Weaknesses
Has touch but lacks consistent accuracy on deep throws.
Low release point causes throws to sail or get batted at the line.
Below-average placement forces receivers to break stride.
Rushes his process once the pocket alarm goes off.
Lacks arm talent and mobility to make plays off-schedule.
Play takes a noticeable downturn when he can’t work in rhythm.
 
I'll just say as someone who watches a lot of Big Ten football, I never thought Brosmer had more than 3rd string/practice squad written on him. Weak arm, little mobility, and poor mechanics, where you'd see him often throwing jump passes.

I think its very possible (likely) he's not better than McCarthy or Wentz were. Also, the Vikings OL is pretty banged up, and they are playing at Seattle.

Now go back and read everthing this same front office was saying about JJM.

Effusive praise seems to come easy. When Brosmer is sacked a dozen times with 4 turnovers, this topic’s tone will change pretty quickly.

I’m not buying what the Vikings are selling.
