Dynasty Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 If he doesn't return, then I guess that gives Cowboys fans something to gloat about, ending his career and whatnot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Seeing Matt Corral on the Panthers and people thinking they'll be back in for another QB doesn't make sense to me. I know he didn't play this year, but unless it's Young or Stroud why go in again? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am of this mindset: I will truly believe he has retired for good if he's not on any roster by Week 18 of the NFL season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorWhom Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Yeah We'll see how long it last. Surprised he had no interest in the Raiders, 49ers are probably the only team that could entice him for another year. But even if Purdy isn't healthy, they are still going to commit to Lance.

BBTV Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Not that anything is for sure, but is it expected that he's starting his FOX job next season? I'm not sure if starting immediately after retirement was part of the deal, or if it was simply that it was there for him when he wanted it. If he's in the booth, then he's not coming back. The deal is supposedly for both broadcasting and being an "ambassador" (whatever TF that means) and I imagine will be keeping him a little too busy to stay in football shape (but he'll be perfectly qualified to coach the Colts!) 1 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

We'll see in 40 days (when he came out of retirement the first time). If he is announced with Kevin Burkhardt for next season (demoting Greg Olsen, which should not happen) then yeah, he's done. I did say I wouldn't believe it unless he's not on any team rosters on Week 18 of the next season, but after thinking about it further, I will say he's done when FOX announces their broadcast teams for the 2023 season. Until then, there's always the possibility he changes his mind again and if FOX announces their broadcast teams and it's Burkhardt and Olsen again and he's nowhere to be found and decides to wait until 2024 to join Burkhardt, it's going to fuel those "Tom Brady is coming back to play" rumors.

The team literally said they’re telling prospective OC candidates that Howell is QB1 headed into next season. Somehow, wires got crossed and fans (and media) still think the team is going to throw the whole house at a big dollar FA QB (Garoppolo) or trade for one (Carr). Stick with Howell, low risk with money, and use the money to build around him. Support goes a long way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Support goes a long way. if Washington sticks with Howell, they will probably sign a lower tier free agent to give him support but not threaten to take his starting job, which could mean Taylor Heinecke returns. As for Matt Corral, it will depend on how Frank Reich feels about him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem(?) with Heinicke is the second Howell doesn’t do his job right, fans will clamor and foam at the mouth for Heinicke to be QB1. Taylor is great guy to have behind and support Howell for sure. He even advocated for Howell to start against Dallas. However, the team needs a QB they absolutely know won’t threaten Howell in the slightest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont care Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 My question is, why would you hedge your bets on an unproven qb who has played in only 1 game, against a team that really had nothing to gain by winning. I don’t know if the cowboys rested their starters but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t you think if the player sucked, he would’ve… ya know… sucked regardless of who else was in the game? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same reason the Cardinals dumped Rosen to go in on Kyler - why waste time on someone that was never a guarantee when you can swing for the fences and draft a much more sure thing?
