So desperation it was... While leading a game you had to win, in which your offensive coordinator once again (rightfully) took responsibility for an unproductive offense that couldn't do shit, putting in a similar, but vastly less experienced player was the answer. Maybe if Haener had freak running moves or brought something else to the table I could start to wrap my head around it, but :L
Browning has had a few good games this year but all in all he just isn't cutting it. The OC sucks, Browning sucks ... I would have done the same thing ... put someone else in there to see if they could spark the offense. A good OC would surely help but even then Browning has pretty much peaked.

This plus failure after all of his years here so far to put an even half way reasonable OC/play caller in the booth is why I said Petersen hasn't yet reached the top rung of head coaching. Every coach has a bad day and every team lays and egg, but this whole season hasn't felt right in ANY game and it has to lay at his feet.

They have 5 freaking QB's on the roster. None of them would have lit up that stale and stagnant offense. Panicking and throwing your 4th year starter out WHILE THEY STILL HAD THE FUCKING LEAD was a bad decision. Putting Haener back in the next series after he already gave up the lead on a pick 6 was an unacceptably bad decision.

He needed to so something. Browning couldn't move the chains ... Petersen was looking for anything to spark the offense .. like a QB who could move the chains. The OC sucks but Browning would be lucky to start on half the teams in the North. He was sucking it up out there.

FFS, admit it was a mistake. I don't care what boner you have over the kids mom. HAENER THREW THE WINNING TD TO THE OTHER FUCKING TEAM. Seriously, how bad do you have it for his mom that you still defend his decision despite the fact it cost them that game? :L

No it wasn't .. I would have put Haener in before then and let him finish the game.

Only a complete fvcking idiot with zero fvcking knowledge of football would think 7 pts. in 3 qtrs of play vs Cal when you have the leagues #1 defense is a good thing especially when Cal had put up the last 6 pts.

btw Browning had 1st and goal on the 9 yard line towards the end of the game and he choked once again.

I feel ya. Agree with everything you said, I felt in spite of the year they were having they still managed to be on a Rose Bowl path and took that as sort of a positive, even in a down conference, they found a way to still pull out those games that didn't feel right and somewhat comfortably in most cases (by a couple scores). This move though, just so amateur and frustrating. Obviously it sets back my feelings on the topic quite a bit and helps me grasp what you were saying.

It's frustrating because they have all or most of the pieces. Obviously no one would ever even suggest you think about a change. We are just blowing steam and suggesting he has room for growth. He really needs to do something with that offense in the off season. They have a lot of talent returning and so many options at QB. Get a fucking OC and do something with that unit.

Petersen is 1 - 3 in bowl games while at Washington.

I’m sorry, it’s kind of hard to feel sorry for you guys when you have been so good under him that you have played good teams. You guys didn’t hire him to play Iowa State, North Carolina or Mississippi State in Bowl games.

It's first world problems we are bitching about for sure, but saw the same thing from Ohio State fans and was shaking my head.

Just not our year.

I'm done Jake. He will go down as the best QB in history at UW and that is a shame. Not even close to the best. Can't wait to move on from him.
