He's come a long ways since he was a Viking. He's a real NFL QB. In his 3rd pre-season with us, I just couldn't see that potential.

I never expected much from Browning. I think it was Nate Stanley that he was usually battling against to make the practice squad. Heβs done pretty good for an undrafted free agent.

he is a back-up, he was bailed out by some great plays by WRs on poorly thrown balls, underthrown. He does not have a strong arm.

Never expected this. Thought he was a nice QB for the college game but never thought he'd be this good getting meaningful snaps in big games in the NFL. Certainly better than anything we have available

I was a big fan of his in college and was glad to see us pick him up, we made it pretty easy for him yesterday, our coverage was super soft all day, our safeties decided to take the week off and our CBs have no idea how to track a ball in the air. He missed some wide open WRs otherwise they would have easily put up 40+ on us.

He provided the league with the blueprint to beat our defense. Put your tallest receiver on the field and then launch a lame-duck, wobbly moonshot to him.

Didn't impress me but Tee Higgins looked good.
That said if the Vikings really like him he is set to be a free agent at the end of the season.

Based on his "you shouldn't have f*cking cut me" video circulating Twitter, he won't be back in Minnesota ever. Thankfully I hope the Vikings have a better plan at QB than him or anyone on the current roster

I saw his press conference after the game and he said he respects the Viking organization and indicated it has many good people in it. It seems his comment was aimed at the last regime.
That said this is Joe Burrow's team so I am pretty confident if ANY NFL team wants to give Browning a legitimate shot at the starting job and starting QB money he would take it. I dont think he fits what we are after long term. Looks mediocre to me.

If heβs smart heβll try to get as much as he can squeeze out of the Bengals and stay there. Long term, itβs probably in his best interests financially.

And yet he has lead the Bungles to 3 wins off the bench and still in the hunt. Not bad for a Vikings βscrubβ that didnβt show anything by all the preseason camp experts.

and I was one of those experts. I couldn't wait to see him cut after his last pre-season performance. Whoops! Didn't get that one right and he played better than Mullens, that's for sure.

Jake Browning still sucks. This franchise has been making half ass QBs look like HOFers for 30 years. Iβm old enough to remember when Rick Mirer, one of the all time great busts beat us when he was with the Raiders. A scrub QB beating the Vikings is as common as January snow in Minnesota.
