While most of the Vikings news from the last week has made me very uninspired to be a Vikings fan, Jake Browning has been an unexpectedly warm story. Frankly I would still bet a substantial sum against him turning into a legitimate NFL starter, and even having a Case Keenum-esque magical run is likely impossible, but it has been fun to see someone get their shot and to demonstrate that they seem to belong in the league, if only as a backup who isn't going to shrink when the lights turn on. While a month ago I was just generally hoping that Browning wouldn't make the active roster (indicating that Mond had solidified himself as an uncontested QB2), Browning has turned himself into someone that I am happy to have on the roster and that I will always cheer for, whoever team he is on.
