From “Howell project is going well” to it coming to an abrupt end in barely a month is rather stunning. The guys talked a lot about that and then contemplated the possibility that the season-ender against Dallas might mean nothing for the Cowboys so….would it be justified for owner Josh Harris to request that Jake Fromm and other practice squad players play in that game? Plenty more on the QB situation including thoughts on Eric Bieniemy.
