NEW YORK JETS COACH ERIC MANGINI SAYS QUARTERBACK CHAD PENNINGTON WOULD BE GOOD COACH - New York Post
What i like most is that our future in Henne is learning every day from him...what an advantage for him and us as fans.....perfect situation for henne
I agree. Pennington is a smart QB theres no doubt about that. That IMO is one of the best attributes he brings to our team. As you said, its a perfect situation for Henne, and Beck as well to learn from. Could definately see Pennington as a coach as well. Maybe not a HC, but a QB coach for sure.
Would've been a great Quarterback if he had remained healthy too. Chad will one day make a great QB coach but he has made more mistakes than usual from 2005-present.
Neither can I. More like: "Chad can do anything he wants... besides throw a ball 30 yards more than once a season."
He can make those 30 yard throws. He just has to throw them a bit early and hopes a CB or S doesn't close.
If Pennington throws not a single ball longer than thirty yards, but completes 350-400 10-15 yders, nobody around here will be complaining. Except maybe the Jets fans
Has any NFL QB ever made a great coach? Or even a successful one? QB greats like Bart Starr, Norm Van Brocklin, Steve Spurrier, Sammy Baugh and Otto Graham have all tried and failed and miserably in some cases.
Amen on that. Chad is a stand-up guy and I would love to have him stay on the team as a QB coach after he's hangs em up. I think he would fit right in like a glove.
No doubt, goes without saying I hope we really lay the wood on them today. I hope we punch them in the mouth repeatedly and walk off the field victorious.
I'm just hoping he plays really well for us for 1-2 years before this becomes a consideration. And yeah, love the fact Henne & Beck are learning from him. Our future at QB is looking brighter than it has in a long time, well since Marino retired, that's for sure!
