    I think we can beat Buffalo this week. After that it is a total crapshoot.

    So, that being said...

    Has this season turned into on the field training for the Henne era and next season or are expecting anything to come out of this other than very rough year and Henne getting much needed playing time?

    Do we have a Ryan, Sanchez or Flacco that can step right in and produce a winner or do we have another Beck who is just blah at best and is another wasted 2nd round QB pick?

    I had to watch the game on my phone due to Sunday being Yom Kippur, but am about to watch the game on my DVR. I can't offer an opinion on Henne since I was watching it on a 3 inch screen...but it didn't look good at first glance.

    I honestly think we will be okay when he settles down. Just no more pick 6's please.

    I think the rest of this season is Henne's one chance to make it as our starter. If he flubbs it, I think we look elsewhere in the coming draft.
    If someone put a gun to my head and forced me to make a prediction...I don't think he has what it takes. He has all the physical tools, but he doesn't seem to have the feel, the mental game. Maybe I'm wrong, that's just what my gut is telling me from my limited time watching him play.

    I think we've a 13 game pre-season ahead of us. This will be the acid test for Henne, whether you like him or not, let's all support him and hope that by the end of the season he looks like the real deal.

    Yep, Opie's got the post of the day right here.
    Certainly hope he gets it together cause we have sooooo many other area's we need to address in the draft.

    front office are no fools
    must of seen something in Henne
    He's had a year as an understudy to prepare for this moment
    wish him the very best

    i hate for Penny to have gotten hurt, he has earned my respect and will go down in history as one of my favorite Dolphins.

    but we cannot go back and change the past. what happened, happened. and were it not for his injury, pretty soon we would be asking ourselves; "At what point do we give the keys to Henne and see what he's got?"

    with that being the case, with this much season left, we will have a prety good idea whether he is the future or not by week 17. and we can then draft accordingly next offseason.

    it truly sucks that Penny got hurt, but at least now we have a cut and dry situation where we can gauge how good Henne is

    Much better than a QB controversy midway through the season.

    Well, Henne looked rough. I have to say though he didn't look as bad as I feared -I had in my mind a Drew Bledsoesque performance and he was definitely better than that.

    His mentor gets hurt, the whole team, with few exceptions are not playing a good game, then he's told to go out there and make plays. Uhmmm, I think that would freak anyone out. No matter how much you want it, no matter how much practice you've had, it would still be hard to walk on that field and be able to calm down enough to play really well.
    I hate CP is out, I really like him, but if Henne is our new QB, he needs support from the team and fans.
    Us Dolphin fans are the most impatient people I know. (me included)
