Not surprising, that was quite a smack he took to the hand. I could feel his pain the way he kept shaking his hand out and trying everything he could to not hurt.

Have a feeling Heinicke will get the call. Did we accidentally just save our 2nd rounder?

It doesn't bother me. We aren't going to do anything serious this year. He was going to have to come out at some point to save the 2nd rounder. I'll be interested to see what the second opinion says.

If Wentz can't go I'd give Heinicke a game. See if the o-line is really as bad as it looked with Wentz in there. At 2-4 you still kinda owe it to the rest of the locker room to play Heinicke.

If Heinicke has a bad game and we lose dropping us to 2-5, it's time to go to Howell.

TH Dec. and Jan. last year 4 TDs; 5 Ints for an average of about 160 yards. The team went 2-3.

I had a feeling Wentz might have broken a finger. Looked like when Dak got hurt except for Dak was the thumb.

He kept shaking it like it was numb, but when I saw the replay I said the same thing. If Ron goes straight to Howell he might get the side eye from some of the vets who still believe there is a season to be had.

I'm not a Heinicke guy in any way, but I think their is some information to be gained by going to him.

1. Is the line really as bad as we think?
2. Heinicke knows the offense like the back of his hand, so is Scott as bad as we or some think? @skinsdad62 posted Wentz missing wide open check downs.

I do want to see Howell at some point just to make sure we aren't burning a top 5 pick on a QB when we didn't have to.

This is why I’ve had no comment about benching him and saving the 2nd, as many times as he was getting hit I knew it was just a matter of time. It’s only a finger though so who how long that’ll be

I like the kid but he is limited. However you are correct, he knows the system so it will be interesting to see how much more he sees than Wentz does.

The OLine was not so bad against Chicago. They got a few pressures but it wasn't out of hand.

I'd like to see Howell some of the season is lost. Might keep Chase on the shelf if the season is lost. Obada is playing some ball.

I really hope they take their time with Chase as well.

You have to get a look at Howell at some point.

It isn't a thumb, the chance that they tape it together and Wentz plays is still there.

If it is six weeks, that's the perfect amount of time to save the pick, see if TH changes people's view on Scott's offense, if Howell can play, and still get Wentz back in there to finish the season if you want to.

TH cannot make throws required in this offense. Play Howell. NONE of the three (Wentz, TH, RR) will be here next year. Howell may very well be here if he shows something regardless of how bad the Oline currently is.
