The Sam Howell Thread

Sam is better than that lol but yes the last 5 or so weeks he’s been bad

Ahhh the howell hate is hilarious.. if not here, somewhere, he'll get a chance with a real supporting cast of o-line and coaches.. til then no judgement from me. I still think he'll be just fine if his mentality isn't completely shot from this dumpster fire.

Is Sam doesn’t play another down this season (probably won’t)

His final stats will be 3624 yards
19 TDS
17 INTs
4 Fumbles
2 lost

He leads the league in total TOs and Sacks taken.

There was some awesome flashes this season from Sam, the two eagles games he was ridiculously good.

The Bills game (5 TOs)
Was ridiculously bad.

I still think with a good OL and Run game he could be a Ryan Fitzpatrick type starter. His accuracy issues are very similar to Ryan’s were and some decisions he makes.

The good thing about Howell is he's basically free for 2 more years. Drafting another QB doesn't mean he's gone. He's a 5th rounder. That is where you draft back-up type QB's.

He can win the position w/ new coaches or be a good back-up. I think he's definitely 1 of the best 64 QBs in the league, so we have a spot for him.

Going to order a Caleb jersey.

Too funny, so much for Brissett starting on Sunday:

Brissett lands on injury report with a tight hammy. Very interesting if they have to go back to Sam. Never good to land on injury report on a Friday.

Fuller, St.-Juste, Butler, Larsen, Leno all out for Sunday's game.

Jacoby Brissett was limited with a hamstring injury. He reported tightness after practice yesterday. Questionable for Sunday.

Last year Heinicke 'nudged' the Coaching staff to start Sam. Maybe this is Jacoby's subtle way of nudging...

Or he has no desire to play behind that O-line. :D

Went south when he started playing better defenses. He’s shown enough to continue to develop here and in a better more balanced system surrounded by actual talented players, I think he would be an asset.

Its insufferable to hear the Sam bashing from guys like Sheehan and other talking heads while ignoring not only a bad Oline, but below par talent like Logan Thomas who can’t block, second year dud Johan Dotson, Brian Robinson mediocre, Antonio Gibson who failed to live up to his potential, bust Dyami Brown, etc.

When we talk about complete rebuild, include these positions as well.

Caleb Williams under same circumstances would fail also ...

Agreed. It's what the kids call "cringe" as fuck.
