Agree. Bieneimy hasn't proven squat. I'd remove him as well if I was changing staffs.

EDIT: I read the initial post incorrectly.

Any quarterback who ever played one snap in the NFL proved it in highschool and college. You can’t compare that to the pros. Last year was one game like you said so…

EB and Howell are a good team. He is a pass first guy. Our offense has shown up most of the year. What he needs desperately is an oline that can give the passing game time to develop. We are not able to throw deep most of the time.

I have absolutely no problems with the direction of the offense- they just need to upgrade the line. It is an easy fix.

The defense however is an absolute dumpster fire from the coordinator down to almost every player minus roughly 4 of them.

I'm sure he wouldn't be calling telegraphed bullshit runs oh you know, 10 times per game only.

Give #14 any decent OC available he'd do just as.good if not better than he already has been... sans OL troubles but better OCs would account for that.

EB is expendable, Sam it not.

I disagree. I know it isn’t the popular opinion but if Sam had time and the deep routes could develop nobody would be complaining about running the ball. It would actually open up the run.

Nobody complained about Don Coryell not running enough lol. I hope we become an absolute beast of a passing team with EB and Sam.

Ill also point again to KC’s offense. They have scored 30 points twice this year. Do not be so quick to get rid of EB. A better line will help take the top off defenses and open up the run.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread

Glass Half full or empty ??

At least we have a New Owner .. highly probable Franchise QB , at least one Good Reciever.. a couple Nice RB’s .. a pro bowl punter .

Maybe 4 guys on D we possibly build around ..

We need complete coaching change .. for sure !!

Re: The Sam Howell Thread

Seattle doubled Jon Allen in pass pro and it took away our entire pass rush. Huge difference in our new DE starters who are easily blocked one-on-one. If we had a DC we could have game planned a variety of blitzes to compensate. Oh, well...

Re: The Sam Howell Thread

Howell is The Guy.

We're lucky because Howell as a young guy (only 23, younger than Michael Penix Jr) on a cost-controlled contract combined with stable ownership, plenty of cap space, several day 2 draft picks, a weaker NFC, and a big media market in DC will make this job highly-coveted for all the hotshot GM and HC candidates this year.

We could set ourselves up for 10+ years of a great staff on the football ops side because Howell (and other factors) draw in top talent.

Let's build around this kid and go make some noise in the postseason next year. Oh, and for the love of god, give him an extension after the 2024 season and don't make the same mistake we did with Cousins.

Re: The Sam Howell Thread

Its crazy but Sam Howell is litteraly carrying this franchise, he's playing at a CJ Stroud level but Stroud has better WRs than we do. Tank Dell and Nico Collins are LEGIT.
