    What's depressing to me is turning on the Dallas/San Diego game on NFLN and seeing Chris Chambers lining up for the Chargers and Zach Thomas for the Cowboys and both looking very good.
    I don't know that I can say that trading Chambers was a mistake, but I can indeed say that basically trading him for Matt Roth was a mistake. Roth hasn't done a damn thing for us. I get very, very frustrated thinking about the mistakes our past FOs have made.

    Of all the QBs, I liked him the best. But none of them were good. I think Henne wants to throw the ball downfield. Thats way more than I can say for some other QBs in Miami.

    But, hes a rookie and this was his first game. He'll be starting before the season is over, unless Pennington stays healthy. And behind this Oline, I don't see how thats possible.

    I like Henne. But overall the QBs were not impressive. If anyone was impressed tonight, their standards are far too low.

    Henne is going to be a good QB, I think.

    bro... the starting o-line wasnt bad at all. Ronnie got in there, Ricky did very well. the pass protection was for the most part okay for being the first preseason game with a basically brand new o-line.

    The Oline was very bad. Very few running lanes, no huge holes. QBs under pressure. Glad you won't bother. :lol:

    Cool...

    Just a friendly suggestion bro...temper your criticism with a bit of fact and, IMO, your opinions will be better received

    This is only my opinion, but I don't think Beck sees the whole field. I really don't. His two best completions were two yard dump offs to the FB. At least Henne drops back, plants, and throws the football downfield.

    You can't be successful if you don't make the defense defend the deep middle. John Beck, as of yet, does not do that.

    from what i heard... Long was pretty good in there. Got beat once i think on the beck pass that ended up being deflected at the line. Had a false start penalty against him. Not much was said on the radio broadcast about him that i heard. Maybe someone who watched could have some more input though. :up:

    The game, IMO, was not as close as the score. They dominated. We could not get them off the field. They converted almost every third down they had after the first two drives.

    Henne in his post game radio interview... saying he made some mistakes. took the blame for the mckinney false start with his cadence... he took the blame for the one Wilford drop.

    John Beck... feels like it went alright. Blaming performance on a penalty on the one drive (probably rightfully so). Says he's still confident, and was well prepared for the game. Regarding the 4 QB's, and only 3 jobs... just says he's worried about doing what he can do to perform as best he can to impress. Typical generic interview line it seemed...

    Granted, I wasn't able to watch the game, but, from looking at the stats, it seems that all of the QB's seemed about the same.

    I agree about Henne next week. He needs to play vs the other teams top defense. Even though there won't be gameplanning, he needs to get that work in. I think he showed more upside than Beck.

    As for Ronnie, I wouldn't necessarily get him more work. I would just let him continue to work on his conditioning.

    As an FYI... Chad Pennington is apparently about to have a press conference coming up here after the game in a few minutes.

    Our standards are far too low? I'm not trying to be a dick here but don't you think your standards just may be a bit to high? Beck looked good against the number # 2 defense from last year. I thought he made nice throws. Henne looked good against the second string. He stepped up in the pocket and took blows but still delivered it between the numbers.

    Your correct, we could not keep them off the field. BUT they did have a QB in there who led them to the playoffs a few years ago in Simms and they did have Bennett playing the whole game against our second and third string defense.

    He had a false start penalty. Other than that, he was ok. Nduke or whatever his name is is HORRIBLE.

    Thats exactly right. Simms could probably start for some teams in this league, as could Brian Griese (maybe)... them guys going up against our 2nd and 3rd string Defense, really doesnt paint a good picture of our team in this game.

    What facts can backup me thinking Beck will be a good QB? Its just my opinion. I don't know how to quantify it to make others receive it better. Any suggestion will be most helpful.
