The EB Effect
https://www.espn.com/blog/washington...ith-commanders
'He's going to bring the intensity': New Commanders OC Eric Bieniemy making presence felt Something that stood out from a recent Keim interview of Ron when discussing passing offense and EB , the development of ball thrown quickly out to playmakers with room to run rather than the big shots. Play action THEN develops not from the traditional meaning of run the ball-to-pass, but defense creeping up to stop short stuff throws and then get guys to run deep for shots. Also EB told Ron immediately in his first discussions, he really liked the trio of Terry, Dotson and Samuel…that’s where the talent lies. Doc Walker said it best last week, we haven’t known the what a dominant defense here in DC is until we see them actually playing with a lead. If the offense can score and the defense will be unlocked

Re: The EB Effect
I'm really looking forward to see how the offense plays. Yes, we have Howell who is still a rookie which could limit the offense but if EB calls plays that allow our playmakers to do most of the work, then the offense can be pretty fun to watch.

Re: The EB Effect
EB will have to be a magician to get anything going behind this ramshackle OL.
Two tackles that gave up 17 sacks between them last year, a center that looked poor comiing back from a bad injury and a left guard that couldn't even displace Turner or Norwell last year. Failed tackle Cosmi might actually be our best lineman. Good luck EB.

Re: The EB Effect
It’s clear as day. Howell will ball out in this system

Re: The EB Effect
I'm still in the camp of let's pump the brakes on Howell just a bit. Let's see how things go once teams have some tape on him and this EB offense. There's a lot to like from him so far, his poise, his arm, etc. But let's not get too crazy yet.

Re: The EB Effect
We've been down this road before with people buying into the likes of John Beck, Shane Mathews, Patrick Ramsey, Rex Grossman, Carson Wentz, etc. Too many names to even bother listing.

Re: The EB Effect
Howell has all the tools I'm convinced. His arm strength is underrated. He's accurate and mobile. His pocket presence is good, especially for as young as he is. Everyone forgets he had a 1st rd grade the year prior to him going pro. His oline regressed a lot his last year at UNC and lost Dyami. Howell has plenty of talent, and we're lucky to have him.

He lost a ton of weapons. He actually rushed for more yards that year. 24 td’s 9 int’s and over 3000 yards minus the losses around him. He is a first round talent. |
