Skins v ravens GDT 7 pm Saturday

I think I agree, but RR did bump Robinson up ahead of Gibson. I think there is probably plenty of time to worry about QB -2 with Wentz here though. In other words I hope neither Howell or Heinicke see the field at all this year.

You can hope for it but don't bet on it. And if a QB change is made it won't necessarily be due to an injury to Wentz. This season Wentz's entire career is at risk if he doesn't perform well. That's a lot of pressure to bear and I'm not yet convinced that he can handle it. You see, I think his issues at Philly and Indy might have been for the most part emotional.

Wentz has all the skills and athleticism to be a top QB if he can handle the pressure. Maybe he will and maybe he won't

I don’t doubt this could be the case at all whatsoever lol

Howell blows Heinicke away. Its no surprise that a dinosaur like Ron would choose not to make him the backup just because he's a rookie. Its time to move on from Heinicke.

Howell has looked good, throwing some strong down field outs and other throws Heinike cant make.

That said, I just assume our week 1 QB will be injured at some point and I dont think you can throw Howell out there as a 5th round rookie (but good college seasoning).

We most likely going to carry 3 QBs ... as we should every season imo. You should always have a mid late round rookie QB on there to develop and see if you struck gold.

Agree [emoji817]- if Wentz goes down for an extended amount of time and the season seems out if reach then get Howell the experience but if Wentz is out for a limited time and the season is still in play let TH roll.

I don't see why Howell cant spot play as easily as Heinicke can. Hopefully Wentz goes the distance but IMO the Heinicke thing has run its course.

The question for me is, does Howell's arm strength trump Heinicke's NFL experience, and his experience in this system? I don't think it does. So if we're talking about winning, I think that right now, if Wentz went down you would have to go to Heinicke.

Maybe as the season progresses, so does Howell - to the point where he gives the team a better chance to win than Heinicke. But if we're talking about right now, I don't think we're there.

Howell is better than Heinicke. Whoever is better should be No. 2 imo.

He may have a better skill set, but that doesn't mean he is ready for any team's starting defense.

If they name him #2, I'll be on board and trust that the Coaches know what they are doing. If they name him #3 - same.

Yeah, this isn't a big deal either way IMO. I think it's a toss-up between the 2, I just think Howell would be better. But either one would be a significant drop-off from a healthy Wentz. So hopefully Wentz can play all 17.

We've seen the preseason heroes come and go especially at QB. I like Howell but we need to slow down a bit. Heinicke brings value as a backup and he's a great guy to have in the QB room.

I think we need to keep all 3 on the active roster (I think Sunny said the same earlier, so I agree w/ his point).

I don't think Howell or Heinicke would make it through waivers to get back to P.S. (not even sure if Henicke is eligible for P.S. either).
