Re: The Sam Howell Thread
If I am reading correctly the OC won’t get a say in the starting QB? Seems kind of silly but par for the current regime

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
I've lost any faith in Ron bit it doesn't sound crazy to me to say to candidates "we're looking for someone who believes in/is willing to work with this kid". As long as it is a coach (and not owner) induced decision, I have no issue with it.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
I guess I feel the coordinator should have some autonomy over their players if they feel there is a better match on the roster. Regardless I hope our sports media does ask why Howell wasn’t good enough to start week 17 but after his performance in week 18 where he threw for 57% completion and a 45 qbr he is the 2023 starter. Either way sounds like a major fuck up. I like what Howell did in game I think we have a Daniel Jonesesque qb and we can work with that I just question RRs decision process.

As for the OC having some autonomy over players, I agree... once he's in place. But having some pre-requisite through the recruiting process doesn't sound crazy.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
When does the OC solely decide who is the QB? If they are doing this, I'm fine. Be upfront: this is the QB you'll get to work with. You need to come in and figure out a way to make him successful with solid running game and some very good receivers.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
Not sure I would say solely but I do think they should have a say in who plays

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
It’s still incompetent to go out and get a guy who the OC doesn’t want. OC needs to be a voice in the room in the QB decision.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
Well, that's exactly what could happen here. If someone accepts the OC position and has success with Howell (or whoever), is able to turn this into a top 15 offense in the league, he will get another opportunity elsewhere, if not here, with the potential to be promoted just like any successful OC.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread
Howell QB1? FU Rivera.
Heinicke had to tell you to start him in a garbage time game now he is your QB1? Dumb ass mother fucker. New owner is cleaning house. New OC has no shot of staying on. |

I don’t need Jeff Bezos or Jayz talking Xs and Os. Explosive Offense? We can wish but that would have to start with elite Oline play. Likelihood of converting these bums to an elite group is slim. |

Good point about the GM/Team President. But this would go to my point: if the new owner has smart people doing the coaches hires, then they wouldn't let a promising OC get away from them. Again I'm not talking likelihood, I'm saying an OC confident in himself could look at this roster AND situation and think "yeah, I'm good enough to get this to work in my favor".
