I get that but didn't quite pin them very well and he could have pinned them without taking penalty... a 5 yard penalty (running into punter, etc) would give us a 1st down without the delay of game penalty.
if Zappe can start for NE and excel then I think Howell can... well, Howell would excel for BB as I trust BB and their staff way more than Ron and Turner.
Zappe and Howell are very similar size and build.
Our luck they will bench Wentz just before 70% to save the 2nd rounder but then Heineke and Howell both get hurt and Wentz has to play the last 1-2 games and gets over 70%
