I bet I can find for each CW and TH one game in their careers where they played better then Sam did in his one game

I'd rather put him in the HoF, than sell the family house, farm, and dog for some fucking retread from another team. And I'm still signing a veteran QB and drafting a mid-round QB too for competition. But I think Howell would win that competition pretty easily if he gets the same number of reps.

I just don't see how you can look at that game, and not feel like Howell over Heinicke/Wentz will definitely be an improvement. Especially with another off-season under his belt.

We literally needed to win 1 more game to make the playoffs. Howell and a new OC is worth at least 1 more win in my eyes.

That's a pretty low bar you have to admit lol

Wentz and Heinicke were both bottom of the barrel in pretty much every QB metric this year. Wentz was ranked 31st on this list and Heinicke was 29th.

We have no idea off one game if Howell is better than these guys or will end up at the bottom of next year's list too.

It is a low bar. The bar is rolling on the ground lol. Would be a tough game of limbo to get underneath it.

Yeah, I can't point to any evidence that says over a full course of a season he will be definitely be a top 15-20 type QB. It's moreso just basing it off of him being a pretty damn good QB in college and me personally believing in his potential (game 18 was a part of this) to be a solid QB next year, that can continue to improve. If we had decent QB play last year, we're a playoff team. Just getting from bad to decent QB play should be enough to get to 9 or 10 wins next season.

This will be a conversation likely until after the draft. Anything could still happen at the QB spot.

I am not saying CW or TH are better options

Here is what we have
SH= positive question mark
TH= dud
CW= dud

sure keep SH but he is not at this point the answer.
