Did Henne just take another baby step in his development?

For the sake of curiosity, I wonder what Chad Henne would look like if he'd been drafted by another team or our offensive philosophy was different from the moment he was drafted. Clearly, whatever the reason may be, this is not a good marriage of Henne's talents (or lack thereof for that crowd) and Tony Sparano's philosophy/Dan Henning's play-calling (we've heard as much from a rumor in the club level). I certainly think Henne's CAPABLE of playing better than what he's shown this year. I also certainly think this system is not for him, which leads me to my question...who is around Miami longer, Chad Henne (a Michigan alum hint hint) or Tony Sparano?

 

And I still believe this is the worst collection of overall talent and lacking of offensive scheme we've ever had. Heck, Cam Cameron had a better offense and you could argue that personnel was even worse.

 

Are you 10? Have you never heard of Ray Lucas? John Beck?

Also, if you can't find nothing positive then you like him.

 

His instincts are god awefull.

 

He just seems to have very little pocket awareness and even less of the 30sec clock. It has been beyond painful watching him these last 2 weeks. What has been even worse is he has shown NO FIRE and NO ability to try and lead this team. He does very little to inspire these guys on offense. I think he is losing the confidence of everyone on the offense

 

Was watching the Jets post game show..and Lucas said Henne was awful...terrible...and a bad QB. Henne was God awful today...but is Ray Lucas kidding himself??? Does he think game film of his terrible play on the Dolphins was burned from anyones memory?

 

IMO, we won today in spite of Henne (and Henning too for that matter). 5 for 18 for 55 yards ain't gonna get it done nine out of ten times. I guess if there was one bright spot, it was that he didn't throw any picks. But, it sure wasn't for a lack of trying...lol. Seriously though, I want to see better play out of him these last three games. Otherwise, I think we may need to start looking in another direction for a future franchise QB.

 

so far, it is what it is: more of the same with the henne
but we have three more games to play, two of which are probable winners
don't think things will change significantly, but they might
I'm willing to wait it out & see if this is a bust we can trust
just don't want to go into 2011 with any vestiges of doubt about the position
henne becomes the Golden Rooster, our Franchise QB over the next 3 games
or we spend what we have spend to get one in this years draft

 

I guess I'd look at it like this. I think Henne would be better, and I hate to say it, if he were a Jet. I don't think Mark Sanchez would even be what he is right now if he were a Dolphins. Same for Matt Ryan certainly, Flacco, and I'd think Bradford could do what Chad Henne does. The Rams might be one of the few teams where the Dolphins skilled players are better, except Steven Jackson.

Not trying to say Ryan, Flacco, Bradford, etc. are in the category of Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, or Aaron Rodgers, but I'd take any of them, and their offensive situations over Chad Henne and our offensive situation right now.

 

We are looking , I have been a Henne fan and he may still be a plausible starting QB , however we can't be taking that for granted, sure we will be reviewing QB options for this draft.

 

Ray Lucas was also bad of course and Beck was never consider a starter, with all the opportunity that we are giving to Henne....but again we are here comparing what we were hoping to be our Franchise QB with some of the worst players that we had.

 

Ah, a running game. I wish we had one of those.

I think to be fair though, Chad Henne was better last year with our 2009 running game. Just from watching today's game though, I feel like the Jets offense is more suited to Chad Henne than the Dolphins offense is suited to Chad Henne. I think Ryan has shown enough from his "year 2", as has Flacco, to "year 3", but even they weren't as bad at times. Plus, you have to factor in that Henne had a year to sit and learn this offense from a veteran, something that none of those guys has had.

 

Well said, and I agree. Let's give Henne some weapons and a better OL. Some friendly competition might bring out the best in him as well.

 

Your out of your mind if you think we have a QB on this team. Seriously? You watched the game, right?

 

I'm probably on this front. I just don't want another project.

 

John Beck was drafted 17 spots higher and was supposed to be the Franchise QB actually.

 

It would be less obvious that you didn't read this thread if the only thing you typed was that you didn't read this thread.

 

have to agree we need to up grade him. Just not sure if 2011 holds any Franchise QB's

 

I get it.....kinda like Michael Vick learning he can throw

 

i really think people need a grip, Sanchez was stinking up the joint, why would henne risk any int and give them a reprieve?

I am too drunk I will say something I regret so I will see y'all tomorrow

 

Sooo, He is learning to suck less in some ways while other QBs learn not to suck quite as much?

 

I think Sparano benching him in favor of Pennington has left the writing on the wall. I don't believe he will be our starter past this year. But I could be wrong, doubt it, that was a BIG statement

 

I really don't see how anyone can think Henne is progressing. He can only make a throw if the player is WIDE OPEN or if its his 1st read reciever. 5/18 pretty much sums it up. When he has to scan the field might as well bank on incomplete or int. Our Defense is playin their hearts out this yr, too bad the O can't play half as good. Henne is not our franchise qb, imo.

 

Heene

I just don't see it. I'm not the optimist you are.

 

For the most part I have been pro-Henne, but I`ve seen enough. I am done with the Chad Henne experiment I think.

 

Agreed. These Henne backers need to take off the rose colored glasses. There is no way this guy will develop into a star in this league, or even a decent QB. He is a terrible QB surrounded by a very talented team that is getting tired of carrying him.

How would you like to be on Defense and play your guts out for a QB that is dead from the neck up? This is a train wreck guys, wake up!

 

God damn it put up or shut up. Very talented team? SERIOUSLY?! Runningbacks played like ****. Offensive line played like ****. WR's dropped multiple balls. Two out of four WR's were non factors. TE was a non factor. Where is this talented team I keep hearing about. On offense as a whole we suck *** and our OC isn't helping one iota.

 

Considering the conditions, I wouldn't be too hard on him. His rating was higher than Sanchez'. And we've seen plenty of great QBs play poorly in bad conditions.

 

henne

I try to reply with quote. I give up

 

He's got three games left. he needs 9 more TDs and he is allowed three more INT's and he can stay in my eyes.
