It's going to be a very interesting off-season for him. The good news, as you mention, is he's a pocket passer. He's got plenty of time to be reasonably healthy to throw by the start of next season. Hopefully recovery goes well, the guy has been fantastic and he's hard not to like.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 5:13 pm Was today Cousins last game for the Vikes? Sucks to go out like that. He'll be back, for someone. He was playing really well, and he wasn't exactly dependent on his mobility. Huge hit to that offense, for FF purpsoses. Really sucks.

I still think they win some games to pick outside of that.

Re: Week 8 Discussion
What are the thoughts on Howell moving forward? Played well again. Didn't get crushed as much as usual, quicker plays and got the ball our faster. Makes good throws, he's tough. Would like to see him use his legs a little more.

Team will be overhauled when Rivera is fired. He's a placeholder, but he may have another year.

Re: Week 8 Discussion
Yeah, I've been waiting on this one. I felt like he was an elite receiving TE prospect and it was fun to finally see him get unleashed. He looked the part in spots last season. He is the type who could ascend quickly as the offense uses TEs and Kyler did too. Definitely has the upside to be TE 4-8 range but I don't want to get ahead of myself there.

Re: Week 8 Discussion
With Mike Williams and Joshua Palmer both injured, Justin Herbert finally throws a TD to Quentin Johnst… no wait… he throws it to Simi Fehoko, a guy signed off Pittsburgh’s practice squad. QJ is done. He’s entering roster clogger territory.

Howell’s stats, metrics, and PFF grade outside of the sacks have all pointed to an above average QB. He makes good reads, will take hits (obviously too many), and throws well down the field.
Everyone needs to remember this is still effectively his rookie year of starting games.

Re: Week 8 Discussion
Royce Freeman is a roster clogger. He will never be worth a 2nd round pick(watch me be wrong this season). But QJ will gain back value either ROS or off season hype.ButtFumbleCity wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 7:17 pmLMAO this is so sillyBabyChark23 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 6:03 pm With Mike Williams and Joshua Palmer both injured, Justin Herbert finally throws a TD to Quentin Johnst… no wait… he throws it to Simi Fehoko, a guy signed off Pittsburgh’s practice squad.

Just remember to not fall for the hype, yourself.
Traded my lone share of Skyy for Trey McBride and 2nd the moment people bought into the "Reid doesn't use rookie receivers" fable.

Re: Week 8 Discussion
Sure. Good hill to climb on. You might die on it, though. EB, as some call him, is an interesting coach, he has a lot going for him and, some warts. I doubt he's the next HC, but maybe he will be. Regardless, Howell has some warts, too, you've marked some things, you think, are positive, and that's fine. What I am saying, is that this in NEW ownership, they will be looking to hire their own people, and this ownership did not, in fact, hire Bienemy, who has a a shady past. New ownership, taking over from ownership, from a shady owner, I wouldn't be surprised if they just cleaned house next year.Lumps wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 6:12 pmI’d like to think that EB gets it when Rivera is fired.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 5:37 pmTeam will be overhauled when Rivera is fired.

I am thinking it's a low chance that Bienemy, who has been passed over countless times for a HC position, woud be hired on as the HC on a bad team, to pair with the 5th round rookie QB the old ownership drafted. I am thinking that once the new ownership hires a HC, that they would tell him they had to keep Bienemy on, as OC, for their first ever, appointed HC.
Howell is an extremely high risk, volatile assett, right now.
