Howell, SMH

As usual the unknown is the most popular guy in town.

I'm going to keep my expectations at rock bottom for him. Because chances are he's the next Joe Schmoe rather than the next Joe Montana.

He is the most popular guy in town because there is a glimmer of hope he is the guy. We know what we have in Wentz and TH.
It is silly not to hope he pans out.

Anyway it is a dream scenario. I have no idea if Howell is going to be good or not, but the jury is pretty much out on the other two.

Funny how we got 2 from this list.

Good arm, great mobility. Seems like exactly what we need.

Howell probably won’t ever be an elite QB.. he was a 6th round pick but that doesn’t always mean he can’t be a good starter. I’d like to see what he has but the coaches that see him every day know the truth

Yeah, they see 2 3rd rounders and $28 million invested and don’t want to look like idiots. That’s what that is.

Yup. I agree. I am extremely doubtful that Howell wouldn’t be able to avoid pressure better than Wentz, or throw further than Heineke. I think any quarterback in the league could do those two things. Once again with our weapons, run game, and D a “capable “ quarterback would do wonders. Someone in between Joe Schmoe and Joe Montana. Lol
Our o line sucks but that is why we need someone who can evade the rush and Howell can. At least better than Wentz.

Maybe, and maybe they feel he hasn't had a fair shake here yet

Agree chances are he won’t even be a starter based on draft position alone. I’d like to see him but will defer to the coaches expertise.

Howell was every bit as good if not better than Pickett was, yet Pickett went in the 1st round. Where you are drafted really doesn't mean much cause teams totally miss on players all the time.

Howell just needs to play. Sitting for a year really doesn't do him any good. Had he got his chance he would have made a lot plays, but he would also have some turnovers- pretty much what we are getting from the two guys in front of him.

There hasn’t been a player drafted in rounds 5-7 that has become a viable starting qb in over 15 years. I doubt Howell is the exception to that. To me this speaks that Pickett is most likely not a viable starter either

Lol Thom Loverro says Wentz back is probably another Dan Snyder instigated move.

I doubt that

Nah Wentz looked sharp Sunday and made plays. The ball was flying out of his hand too. There is no comparison of who the Better passer is

ugh, Thom is tough to take seriously sometimes

He loves to rile people up

Thing is most of the time blaming Snyder is 100% the right call so he just rolls with that
