Another test passed for Henne, Dolphins http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-dolphins/fl-dolphins-hyde-1116-20091115,0,1795862.story
Especially after that INT, and the D folding in the 2nd half...AGAIN. It seems like the only game that the D has played 4 full quarters has been the Buffalo game. I can't imagine the pressure that this kid is put under. 2 fourth quarter comebacks, 1 vs. the Jets and 1 vs. the Bucs. 2 other comeback bids foiled by drops in which he threw perfectly good passes. I really think this kid has the goods. Now someone tell our OC to stop trying to be so cute all the time.
Honestly after that pick, he needed to drive us down the field for the win. Imagine what the boards would look like if he didn't. I assume many would be calling for White or Thigpen, not to mention looking for an offseason trade of Joey Porter and a 3rd rounder for Peyton. I mean comon the trade went through in Madden 2010.
Totally disagree with you. First year quarterback shaking off a pick that nearly cost them the game, and then driving us down the field to put up the final 3 points we need? That's wonderful, that's special, and that's something we haven't seem from him yet. Yes, the interception sucked, yes, it was his fault. But you can't deny that he's got something special to be able to shake that off and just get the job done. That's something that is an absolute must for a QB in this league, and he's clearly got it.
Hey...we're starting the Henne The Barbarian fan club, I take it you wont be running for club president?
I think for those that aren't sold on Henne yet, and it's understandable that there are some that aren't, all I can say it to try and be patient. Even Peyton Manning struggled early on in his career. He's bound to make mistakes. Even boneheaded ones. But, and as has been said...to have the poise to go back out there and lead the team to a come from behind win is huge. Not only did we win the game, but he is building confidence in himself and the players around him. Go Phins!
Well, he completed 25 to Bess, 16 to Bess, got a PI (thanks Tampa!) and then Ricky. Can't forget about Ricky! Does anyone know why we didn't run the clock to leave 1 second on the clock? We had first down at the 7, ball was in the middle, and the clock was running.
