The Sam Howell Thread

Howell can impress the Kelce brothers and Darius Slay but not Jamf or mredskins. https://commanderswire.usatoday.com/2023/11/03/eagles-center-jason-and-travis-kelce-have-high-praise-for-commanders-qb-sam-howell-chiefs-new-heights-podcast/?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwAR0cNkgdRmILA7QEagjM60H3Jh3LLLNq20FLYHtus yP14AdCXG-Whc6vXOw_aem_AX5IalDY7XPKJU1upYRKpdzlC44PU9qGMpsar sRotefjJvOmt8trVfpYTmyYKzZFP9k&mibextid=Zxz2cZ#lok7hu334wheyq360ed

Imagine two people living rent free in your head on the internet over whether or not a 23 year old boy will some day be a hall of fame QB? Sad.

Don’t over think it. on the road at Gillette versus Bill Belichick defense who is knee deep in the defense play calls

Nice game Sam

The dimes were the fade to Terry (great catch) on 3rd and long against the side line, the two scramble throws to Pringle (one on third down), the throw to Brown in the end zone…perfect location…right between his hands…and of course the perfect td throw to JD.

And how about the long run for the conversation on 3rd down?

Guy is tough, clearly better than Jones

A few weeks ago I was ready to see what JB could do, any maybe give Sam some time to clear his head. Now, it's looking more and more like he's someone we can build around for next year. He's been very impressive these last few weeks no doubt.

The crazy thing to me is people giving up on him before he's played a full season in his pro career - he's more than shown enough flashes this early one to deserve the entire season (and now more at this point).

The key is showing improvement week-to-week and he's done that.

Yesterday he put the offense on his back, that shows he can be that QB1 we need. He played lights out other than one bad pass.

Sam Howell vs. the Patriots blitz:

13/18
139 yards
1 TD / 0 INTs
113.0 passer rating

Wow that's impressive.. I cannot remember exactly which game, but I think it was right at the beginning of the Giants game, the announcers showed Howell's stats - he played better when under pressured.. Other than the Giants game where he was swarmed by Giants throughout the game, he handled the pressure pretty well.

I am going to give Terry most of the credit on that catch. Sam threw off his back foot and it kind of floated. Quality route running by Terry made it a moot issue because he gaped the db but if it was tighter coverage it is probably not a completion.

Sam's scramble for the first down to was impressive

He is definitely starting to go through his progressions quicker

Sam > Mac

Mac Jones is so mid
