nah. Sometimes, yeah. But my guess is that next week starts Rivera’s death spiral. Gonna be ugly, likely 

You’re likely right however I have faith in the  unexpected whim of the Football Gods.

Fire Ron now. Not for coaching, for his GM disaster. Let EB finish the year as HC

[FootballZombie]

At this point, somebody has to pull EB aside and talk to him about his playcalling.

 

RR is the only guy w/ the rank to do it.

Howell is having one of those humbling games.

It happens.

Also, think it needed to happen to all of them, read too much about themselves went to their heads

[Yng Lady88]

i was really going to get my dad tickets to this game to celebrate his birthday. Thank Jesus, God, the Lord, Buddah and Allah for the rain and ****ty weather/playing conditions. The only reason i didnt pull the trigger.

I hope y’all are not surprised. I said it week 1 this is still a bad football team, who only has wins over 2 bad football teams. Anytime we play someone halfway competent it’s going to be like this. 
 

Some son good stuff out of the D but you have to score points to win in the NFL, period. 

 

Let me know where to mail your cookie

I give the crowd credit where the boo-birds haven't emerged and turned on the kid.

 

I'm sure they're long gone. Thats what happened when I went to the Giants game and Butt Fumble started for us.

Expect more 

No doubt. I’m OK with that - it’s about how he’s playing by the end of the season for me. Does he develop. 

[HOF28]

O line is not competitive.  No chance with this line

[Llevron]

I want y’all to remember Kirk Cousins had a game like this here and y’all were crying about how much y’all missed him for the last two years. 

[Voice_of_Reason]

Just now, MartinC said:

Nah. Give him the snaps. 
 

Don’t give him an easy out - he will want to finish this. 

Yeah, but it might not be good for him.  He clearly can’t see the field at all.  He’s holding the ball, evading at the wrong time, making bad decisions.  
 

Sometime tapping out and living to play another day is what you need.

They’re going to win next week. 
 

Why?  Because that’s what happens in the NFL.  

No we aren't. This "records don't mean anything" or there is no such thing as a good or bad team, I really don't even know the point that you are trying to make, is dumb.

 

Good teams win more games than bad teams and you can usually tell which team is good.

 

Eagles and Dallas are bad match ups for us and Riddick is going to use it as a get right game.

 

Our OL isn't going to magically become good and EB has called the same game 3 weeks in a row.

[HogsVa7]

Sam Howell had a bad day we all know it. He will learn from this and I do believe he will get better.  Also our offense line is garbage and will ruin us. We need to run more often. Just my two cents.

[YourWish is MyCommanders]

I had to change the channel, I was screaming at the tv when he took that last sack.

[Conn]

We've never really used him properly.  Get him in space, on LBs and safeties and let him go.  Spent the first 2 years trying to make him John Riggins, then the last 2 not getting him the ball in places where he can use his skill set.  I still think there's something there, just for somebody else.

nah, he’s just not that explosive. His combine measurables were a mirage, he’s never been that guy. He’s a straight line athlete not a YAC beast or agile jitterbug, and even that straight line speed isn’t take the top off/pull away from the defense type speed. He could have done well in a prime Tevin Coleman type role in a better offense that put him in space more, I agree with that. But I think we’ve pretty much seen the sort of player he is, I don’t think there’s an alternate reality where he’s a stud somewhere in a different role.

We cant give him one play with a clean pocket to stabilize. 

 

That's not how you develop a QB, that's how you Ramsey one...

[KDawg]

If they move on from Howell, and they sure could, their very first order of business better be replacing the turnstiles that are between the sidelines at FedEx Field. 
 

Otherwise the next guy is going to have a similar struggle.

 

Howell was awful today, too. Don’t get me wrong. But this OL is awful and we play Dallas and Philly twice.

Troy Aikman went 1-15 in his rookie year and was benched during the season.

Ok.  I change my mind.  I think it might be time to give the kid a break.  

 

I think taking him out now would be worse than leaving him in. Just let him finish it out, then go and lick his wounds and see how he handles having a horrible game.

It happens to most QBs. I'm not mad. I like the kid. Humbling day.
