I hope it works well too and do think EB will help drag Ron into the modern era. Hopefully Howell will be the QB that makes the offense explode and allows the WRs to eat but I'm not holding my breath that a 5th rounder can do that. I'm certain Brissett cant.

Howell is ready. He should have entered the draft after his junior year. But it worked great for us.

Over the last several years KC is like 7th or higher pass percentage play balance on offense. With a top 3 qb in the league though.

Expect more passing for sure

Ron the coach has to hype Howell because Ron the GM's bad QB decisions give him no other choice.

Not sure how one game shows Howell is ready but I hope he is.

Howell is QB1 for sure and It's the right decision. Worst comes to worst he sucks and Brisett takes over week 4 and we get a QB in 2024

That's not what Ron said yesterday.

This. It's kinda head-scratching to see some of the fans struggling to understand the position we are in. Our QB options are limited at this moment, and Howell is the best option for us.

He wants Howell to earn the spot, which is appropriate approach.

He has to say that though... I mean Brisett could be the guy if he out plays SH in practice of course

Agree its another classic example of Ron speak. One day Howell is QB1 the next day he in a QB competition.

Chief X_Phackter · 03-30-2023, 02:03 PM

He was QB only, until we signed Brissett.

He has said that Howell will get first crack at winning the job.

sdskinsfan2001 · 03-30-2023, 02:17 PM

I imagine Brissett would have to win the competition going away to start Week 1. If it's like 55/45, Howell will very likely start.

Yep...

If the season started today and there was no camp or preseason Howell would be the starter. They like what they saw in him during practice and his one game. QB-1 and starter are not the same though. Mainly because starters are not named until all the offseason stuff is over. If Brissett beats him out in camp and preseason he will be the starter. I have nothing good to say about Ron as a HC, but in this case I don’t think he is being misleading or Coach speaking. If the season started tomorrow Sam or QB -1 would start.

FWIW the Team went to Henden Hookers pro day and Anthony Richardson as well.
