Not sure why people keep talking about Howell. At his best he's a middle of the pack QB. Saying that he's probably the best UNC QB to play in the NFL which is honestly sad to say.

I mean, he leads the NFL in passing yards and has a worse O-Line than Young and an avg at best offense and is coached by Ron.

Says the "UNC fan". 😂

Yeah, it was wild how Howell was the only guy out there and single handedly lost.

Howell is leading the NFL in passing yardage on an awful team with a lame duck coach, the worst D in the NFL, and an OC just trying to audition for HC roles vs. trying to run a functional offense. He's about the only thing right about that team.

My point in bringing up Howell is that the Heels would have been utterly awful with our defenses without Howell and Maye at QB. Mack has been floated by getting the two best QBs we've ever had and doing very little in the other side of the ball. I know that's obvious and you're just a troll but figured I'd point that out for anyone who actually cares.

That “team” may be awful, but Howell has pretty good weapons.

Leading the NFL in passing yards is cool, but you need to have team success to back it up. Cowboys waxed them he had 300+ yards and only 10 points.

 

If he starts winning then we can legit start discussing him as a franchise QB. Last I heard from people in Washington they still view him as a stop gap QB not a franchise QB.

Yeah, it's Howell's fault that they literally have the worst D in the league and no running game. He really should be making more tackles.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
