Im re-watching the Broncos/Washington game and the number of effective screens Washington has run is impressive

how does the broncos defense compare to the bills?

 

I'm thinking the bills D will do a much better job then denver. just milano alone can be disruptive.

Mike White played at South Florida and Western Kentucky.  Sam Howell played in a power conference and set records at his school (UNC).

 

Yeah, they're not at all similar.

The players and background might not be similar but but the unwarranted  hype certainly is.  Smart money would bet I believe that this guy will come back to his level sooner rather than later.

Is there even a lot of hype for Sam Howell? I think everyone was surprised they didn’t try to upgrade.

 

Now he’s overhyped and needs to come back to earth? What

I’m not sure who is worse - people who comment in long threads without bothering to read anything upthread, or people who immediately stand up in the airplane aisle as soon as the cabin doors open.

Or people who yell from the back “open the door!” as the flight attendant is waiting for the jet bridge to connect to the plane.

I'm afraid if Milano intercepts another pass like that, the ref is going to call it DPI or "personal foul - unnecessary roughness"

Don’t underestimate Sam Howell.  Most of you probably have no recollection that after his sophomore year at UNC he was a very highly touted NFL prospect.  He set a UNC freshman record with 38 TDs and followed it up with 30 the next season.  He returned to school for his junior year and the Heels had a horrid offensive line; he was running for his life most of the time.  His draft stock suffered significantly as a result.  He’s not huge (6’1”) but his arm is plenty strong, and he’s a true “dawg.”  He had over 800 yards rushing his junior season.

 

My point is simply that this is no “journeyman” QB or typical 5th round pick.

 

 

Became more of a UNC fan after my daughter went there - saw all of Howell's games and he is a gamer.  Rooting for the guy (when he's not playing the Bills)

 

One side note - apropos of nothing - he allegedly only eats chicken

Quote

Commanders rookie QB Sam Howell says he only eats chicken. He's never tried a burger or a steak and won't eat seafood. He orders chicken tenders at steakhouses and brings his own tenders to team dinners.

the absolute worst are the people who stand up right away in the aisle and move down the aisle, cutting ahead by like 3 rows, at most.  Do they not understand the normal de-planing protocol?

Yeah, just because they don’t have any luggage in the overhead compartments they think they can just get up and barrel down the aisle. I despise those people. I always hope that, if they check some luggage, the airline lost it.

Totally agree. what are they thinking? They will never make it off the plane first. At most, they move up a few rows and then get blocked. But then it screws up the flow for everyone else. Drives me crazy.

I am a fairly large individual. If I am on the aisle I pop up in advance of those people and cut them off. 

It's the little things.

Sam Howell going into his junior season at UNC was projected as the top QB and potential favorite to be the number one pick, his junior season he lost basically all his NFL caliber teammates at rb and wr.

 

The guy has talent

 

That said the bills should have no issue containing Washington's offense
