Why do we have a thread about Sam Howell. First, SH lead the league in turnrovers, pick 6's and sacks and the Oline according to PFF graded out average. Granted I did not watch much SH but I have Skins fans and they say he stunk.

Second, Seattle just sent a 5th rd pick for him and he has I think 2 yrs left on his rookie QB contract he is going nowhere. Weird thread to start about a specific backup.

Why would they trade the player they just traded for?

I don't know but this keeps coming up in Seattle fan circles. He would be a great option for a back-up and developmental project if true. 

I think it's more likely that Plummer just becomes the back up. Then again, if Wilson really did lose his job in Pittsburgh, I can totally see Canales and Morgan getting him just due to the history together. I don't think they do it unless Dalton is hurt though.

An interesting option would be Zappe who is on KC's practice squad right now.

If we'd taken him later in the draft he would have gotten the Corral treatment already. He's only here because of the trade capital and guaranteed money. Or Dalton would have been starting like 10 games ago at the least

I meant Sam Howell

I'd definitely take him but I see no reason why the Seahawks would want to move him.

If they are leaning toward extending Geno and they could improve on their 5th round investment I could see it. Then again, they actually look pretty decent. They may deem a viable backup QB more valuable than turning a 5th into say a 4th, even a 3rd.

All in all this is something the Panthers should have been considering months ago. You always operate with the sense you are doing what is best for the team. Having another young QB with legitimate potential on the roster (not a UDFA afterthought like Plummer) after Bryce's struggles last season should have been a priority for someone who talks about wanting dawgs.

If we really want Howell we could get him. Geno is balling that's his position for the foreseeable future. I don't think they view Howell as a long-term option. I think they traded for him to push Geno and make him earn the job. 

 

I think we could work out a deal for a 4th Rd pick and maybe send them Dalton. 

 

That's a fair deal for both teams.

The amount of coddling we did for Bryce is just wild.

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
