QB Max Brosmer, MIN (16 Viewers)

#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.”
: Vikings YouTube
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).

#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.”

Possible Brock Purdy II situation

there’s a poster in these threads that predicted to start the year this guy was better than JJM. Now is the time to see it.

And you still can’t.

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.

He better do what's right! He needs to target Justin Jefferson at least 14-15 times to make up for McCarthys weeks of sucking!

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.

It will be interesting to see what the Vikes do if (slim chance) Brosmer performs well and they get a win.

I own JSN everywhere it has me worried he won’t see much work. lol.
And I’m a Vikings fan.

If Burrow hadn't come back this week, I probably would be starting him in my 2 QB league over Tyrod Taylor (traded away Rodgers). I think he surprises and there will be controversy about who starts for the Vikes for the rest of the year...

All year long great D matchups have failed (or maybe it is only the one’s I select). I think it will be no worse than McCarthy starting and a marginal chance Brosmer surprises and is somewhat efficient. Ward performed above expectations last week and I think there is a chance MIN surprises this week. Of course my thoughts are not worth much lol…
I've actually considered a lot of what you just wrote. Especially the part about he may not be worse then JJM and could surprise. I know I read a lot from back in training camp from some beat writes that the Vikings feel like they may have found their Brock Purdy.
Still scared though.

I would share the same fear in this circumstance, however JJM has been SO bad I think there is a chance this change provides a spark. Again, SEA D allowed Ward to look better than he has all year. I wish you luck!
