It can be hard, after a lopsided game, to dissect a team’s problems. But Washington’s loss to Buffalo provided nine clear insights.
After the Gibson fumble, Allen rushed for a touchdown, Howell threw a pick-six, and the rout was on. But even in the waning seconds of an unwinnable game, Washington kept Howell on the field. So if he struggles like this again — and odds are he will — don’t expect the Commanders to bench him to protect his confidence or his body. Rivera said he and Bieniemy made the decision to keep Howell in because they wanted him to continue playing and learning.
In the locker room, his stall is next to the exit, and as he sat there Sunday, seeming to process the loss, teammates stopped by on their way out to tell him to keep his head up. Leno, defensive end Montez Sweat and others — some of whom said his struggles were normal growing pains for a young quarterback — wanted Howell to know they stood behind him.
“It means everything,” Howell said of the support. “We have a lot of really good players on this football team and a lot of people that care so much about winning. We hold ourselves to a high standard. So everyone wants to do their part, and honestly it starts with me. I have a lot of stuff I can clean up, and I’m sure there’s some other people that feel like they can get better as well.
