@LetMualTellit People saying Howell is holding the ball causing these sacks are just flat out wrong. The one sack was because he didn't throw the bubble which the Cb looked to jump so he just ran and lost a yard. That one really isn't a sack. The good news is they didn't get bullied for sacks.

@RRose78 I think the two I gave out on Howell are ones he could've gotten rid of the ball. One was the blown-up screen, and the other was a scramble toward the sideline. The other four are beyond his control.

@LetMualTellit Very fair assessment.

@LetMualTellit That sack on Thomas was really on EB. Terrible scheme to have your least capable blocking TE have to go one on one against an edge rusher.

@LetMualTellit Exactly. People going crazy over the line and even the one Gates gave up he said I just took my eye off him. He didn’t get overpowered or anything like that. He missed his assignment.

@LetMualTellit Perfect that’s exactly what happened

@LetMualTellit The sacks on the o line are the hardest to correct the rest can be addressed. But the o line didnt face a good d line so ut could get worse. Which is why the other sacks cant happen

@LetMualTellit Yes...it was a weird 6 sacks yesterday...not the typical way you see 6 sacks happen (just think back to last year). I would say 5 of the 6 sacks are pretty easily correctable or were just kind of fluky (BRob one in particular).

@LetMualTellit Howell had problems at UNC with bolding the ball too long, particularly in critical situations where he was trying to make a play. He will have to clean that up or those numbers will go up as the season progresses

@LetMualTellit Sounds about right.

@LetMualTellit @BigManPauly That’s exactly what I saw too

@LetMualTellit Word

@LetMualTellit I'm looking at the boxscore and I don't see how we can say its 6 sacks. I don't really count the sack by Fotu since it was for -1 yards. Same with the sack by Ledbetter since it was no gain. I get "technically" but nah I need to see the ones by Watkins and Dimukeje

@LetMualTellit 1 sack on L̶o̶g̶a̶n̶ T̶h̶o̶m̶a̶s̶ scheme. Thomas should never be blocking anyone off the edge 1 on 1.

@LetMualTellit This and that sahiid getting ran over almost finished me man

@LetMualTellit The rest of the fan base would tell you all of them are on Howell cause he held the ball too long😒

@LetMualTellit It’s gonna happen every week

@LetMualTellit I saw it this way too. And for people who haven’t watched it back, the sack/fumble: the sack was on Wylie, the fumble on Sam. He had to see that coming and take better care of the ball.
