Peregrine Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Howell today putting in a very Howell performance, when given the start against a bunch of 3rd stringers trying to make the roster he managed a typical 15 points. Simply stunning and definitely worthy of 1st team snaps as some were suggesting. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly you're a Heinicke dead-ender so this take isn't super surprising. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t make this stuff up. 😭 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted August 28, 2022 Author Share Posted August 28, 2022 I don't know how good Howell can be or not. He was staring down receivers pretty bad, but the oline was bad and the Ravens defense aggressive coming after him, so some of that may have been by design. I'll say this though, Howell definitely belongs in the NFL. Either a long career as QB2 or a starter, I don't know yet, but he's going to stick. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Howell looks a lot better than some of the other jabroni QBs we've had in preseason over the last several years I'll say that much. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyHolt Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 He's no Babe Laufenberg He looked good overall. He broke more tackles than all our QBs over the past decade combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s going to stick either as a backup or potential future starter; he will have to develop. Some point in his 4 years , there will be a new head coach. He’s really going to have to show something to survive the future coaching change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, IMO we could have survived some of the OL poor play along with others, like Brown dropped passes but those 2 mostly contributed to the point swings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think they are set at Safety, but the question is going to be the 4th and 5th CBs. I still think Danny Johnson makes it. There have been some good vibes about Corn Elder. We'll see. We're talking about guys who might play special teams or be inactive on gamedays, so we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Howell I thought played well. O line was really bad. WR play "meh". What has me jazzed the most is one of my red flags about Howell was does his mobility translate to the pros -- and the answer is clearly heck yes it does. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrFan Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 It was really entertaining to see Howell, he played with a lot of confidence for a rookie. I know it's just a pre-season game but I'm wondering what could he do behind a better OL. He was sacked 5 times, suffered 12 quarterback hits and 8 tackles. I'd like to see him play during the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer to roll with Wentz and then see how Howell looks next year after a full season of learning and practicing under his belt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I maintain my position that Ron will not finish his contract. He may not get the ax in 22, but 23. Personally, there’s only one good thing Ron has done. Improve the culture. Dan should get him to retire from coaching and let him Be team president. Let Ron control who’s the Gm and let the Gm pick the coach. I doubt Ron wants to do that though; especially with this team.
