Max Brosmer's first career start for the Minnesota Vikings will be anything but a cakewalk. The team's rookie quarterback is set to face off against the Seahawks defense, which has been one of the toughest in the league this season. Seattle's pass rush has recorded the fourth-most sacks of opposing quarterbacks so far, and with the Vikings' injury-ridden offensive line, Brosmer will be facing a daunting task.
The Vikings will be without their starting left tackle Christian Darrisaw due to knee and foot injuries, while starting left guard Donovan Jackson is also out with an ankle injury. J.J. McCarthy, who was initially expected to start against Seattle, has suffered a concussion and will not be playing on Sunday.
For Brosmer, this could be a baptism by fire. The undrafted rookie is about to make his first career start in far from ideal circumstances. While expectations have been low all season for the quarterback position, if Brosmer can show any signs of improvement over McCarthy, he may just carve out a future with the Vikings.
It's worth noting that even if Brosmer struggles early on, it won't be entirely due to a lack of talent. The team's coaching staff will likely need to adapt and find ways to protect their young quarterback from Seattle's relentless pass rush. Ultimately, this game could prove to be a crucial test for both Brosmer and the Vikings' offense as they try to navigate the challenges ahead.
The stage is set for a tough matchup, but one thing is certain - Max Brosmer will have to dig deep to find his footing in his first career start against a formidable opponent.

this game is gonna be insane! like, on one hand, max brosmer's got the skills and all but facing that seahawks defense? 
tough luck for him if he gets sacked like 10 times already 
. Vikings' o-line situation is a mess too, can't expect them to protect max properly with darrisaw and jackson out 
still, if brosmer shows some fight and accuracy, maybe this rookie thing won't be so bad after all 
we'll see how it plays out tho
he's gotta step up and show the vikings what he's got! but i gotta feel for him, starting on sunday with seattle's pass rush going at it? that's like trying to make a smoothie in a blender without any ingredients 
. anyway, i'm rooting for him to prove some ppl wrong and actually do something decent as the vikings' QB 
. The Seahawks defense is no joke, especially with their pass rush. I mean, 4th most sacks already? That's insane! 
but at the same time i got faith in him!!! he's got this! 
. but if max can show some signs of improvement, who knows? maybe he'll become the future of the vikings 
. And let's not forget, even if he struggles, it's all part of the learning process. He'll learn from his mistakes and come out stronger on the other side 
. It's gonna be a wild ride, and I'm excited to see how this all unfolds! 
️
. Starting for the Vikings on Sunday's gonna be like throwin' yourself into a fire without gettin' lit 
. That Seahawks defense is lookin' fierce this season! 
. If he can keep his cool under pressure, maybe he'll surprise us all 
! The real question is, will the coaching staff be able to help him out? That O-line's gotta get it together ASAP 
or Brosmer might be in for a long night 
.
he's gotta step up and show the Vikings what he's made of, no easy outs here 
i guess the coaching staff gotta step up & find ways 2 protect him or else it's a long day for max 
.
Can't say I'm surprised Brosmer's getting thrust into the fire like this. The Vikings are basically saying "Hey kid, we've got faith in you... and also a gazillion injuries" 
. Anyways, the real question is how long can their O-line keep up with Seattle's pass rush? If Brosmer can't handle it, I guess he'll be the latest casualty of the Vikings' rookie QB woes 
.
. And to make matters worse, the Vikes' O-line is pretty banged up 
. I hope they can get some reinforcements in soon, 'cause if Christian Darrisaw and Donovan Jackson are out for a while, it's gonna be a miracle if Brosmer has any chance of having a decent game 
. But if he can just keep his cool and read the defense, I think he's got a shot at having some decent plays 
.
. He'll just have to learn from his mistakes and find ways to improve for next week 
. Fingers crossed the Vikes' O-line gets healthy soon, or this could be a long day 
The fact that Brosmer's first start is in such tough circumstances just means he's got a chance to prove himself, but it's also a massive responsibility for the entire team to step up and support him. 
... the seahawks defense has been so beast mode all season and now they get to take on a rookie QB with a hobbled oline 
! Brosmer's gotta step up big time 
️. Their O-line is toast 
watching this one unfold
