If they're going to IR Wentz and and basically assume he's out for the rest of the season, I agree 100% Putting Heinicke in there won't do anything. At least with Howell we'd get to see how he progresses. Though I'm still a bit worried about him getting shell shocked behind this OL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 6 weeks saves the #2 pick. 4-5 weeks does not... Unless I can't math properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veteranskinsfan Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Put Wentz on IR and keep him there!! We need to find out about both quarterbacks and how they can function without a decent offensive line. Can their scrambling save themselves and help us win a few more games this season? Who knows. The Athletic is reporting almost the same time frame that Rapport is reporting now. Heinke did not play with this many good receivers last season if you recall. If Heinke gets hurt then let Howell play. This offensive line is so bad that both quarterbacks will be scrambling around the field like Kansas City quarterback does every Sunday.

lovemaskins Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 If Turner is smart he will implement some version of the read option similar to Jalen Hurts and the eagles and go on a run, but he's a idiot and will have Heinicke doing 7 step drops again trying to stretch the defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's difficult for anyone to estimate with accuracy, since it's based on snaps, not games. And snaps can vary from week to week, depending on TOP, length of drives, etc. For example, Wentz' snaps each game this season, have ranged between 57 and 77 snaps. Six weeks is probably a close estimate, but remember it's just that - an estimate. It could easily vary by a game or more.

I didnt realize it was based on actual snaps… yea impossible to determine. i guess i just cheer for lots of snaps in these games he is out… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malapropismic Depository Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 (edited) For our emergency 3rd QB, I think a good choice would be Carson. Carson Strong, that is. By the time we get to our 4th QB, the season will be shot anyway. Might as well see if he can be a future backup. Plus, he went through the Eagles entire Training Camp and Preseason, so maybe he can offer even a smidgen of intel Edited October 17, 2022 by Malapropismic Depository Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's front and center on two different threads. Perhaps it's time to change the subject. The starter is injured, and the backup quarterback is coming in. Seems pretty self explanatory to me anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Blue Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 5 hours ago, method man said: I'm not worried about playing Howell due to the OL as he played with a bad OL at UNC last year and his running back build should help him out. What I am worried about is that Turner runs an offense that he doesn't adjust much that takes proven high IQ veteran guys a while to learn. I worry that Sam may be discombobulated in this offense and he'll look worse than he actually is due to it. If we had a legit OC, that person would run more a college style offense with Sam in there This is the NFL not the ACC. He should sit until he learns the ins and outs of playing in THIS league. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraCommander Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I will say this and then be done. I think Howell has Taylor’s escapability with Carson’s arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a talented rookie QB, even if he wasn't a high round pick, and you have a backup who's not very good, and you basically know that you're not doing anything significant this season with either of them, then it stands to reason that you might consider putting the rookie in so you can evaluate him.

HogsVa7 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 That play to McLaurin is better than Wentz trying to scramble and taking a sack when I walk faster than Wentz runs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyHolt Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Anyone else hear Jay this afternoon on 106.7 - touched on what I said when talking Carson's deep ball. How often do we even hit deep balls? He misses easier throws. But Jay spoke league wide and said something to the effect of "you only hit 3 ever 6 games" or something similar. Feel free to correct me if anyone else heard that. He did say strength when throwing outs - Carson is a 9 Taylor is a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10. I wonder how much Carson is struggling picking up the offense. A 40 is wonder is great but it doesnt mean he has it perfected yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because I've explained it a dozen times like an adult, instead of throwing little hissy fits like your posts. I still don't think Wentz is the main problem and yes, I thought the offense would go off. So what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
