...still sucks. :lol:
I didn't watch the game. But I did read that he threw the ball away on 4th down during a crucial drive. But who knows, maybe he'll go on to "tear it up" if Gabbert is out longer as so many Henne fans here prognosticated.

Someday he might get a chance to start some and will probably win a game, then some on the forum will make a thread saying, see!
Then the next week he'll suck. -
A Jax offense that lost MJD, leaving them with..?
Lewis? Not a bad player, the fact they had to lean on Rook Blackmon speaks volumes. -
Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed tihs. -

What do you not agree with. What is worst case scenario if he throws it up where you wouldnt want him to?
-
Again I'll ask. In that situation. What is the downside to throwing the ball up down the field?

The game was at hand so no big deal. Didn't need to risk it. Who needs more points up 14?

There doesn't have to be anyone open to throw the ball up down the field. -
There is a receiver 15-20 yards down the field. Throw the ball up to him. Again, what is the downside? None
-
I forgot. That's the only guy out on a route. And regardless he could still throw the ball up to that guy even.

I've still yet to hear your answer to my question I asked 10 times. What is the downside?

I don't think I've ever seen a pick six or much of a return from a ball being thrown up down the field. 99% of the time it's the WR going up fighting for the ball with a CB or S and if someone goes down with it, they go down right away.

Only guys I've seen be able to do that were Elway and Favre. -
When he is at the top of the Raiders logo, he has time to stop and throw the ball. -
The chance of a big return on this play is minimal imo - if you get it close enough to the receiver, they will have a chance at the ball and can either tackle or at least slow the defender and likely draw a blocker. Putting a little air on it also allows the rest of your team to get into position to make a defensive play if needed.
Instead, you are just surrendering the ball at midfield. You may as well surrender the FG right then too. -
Henne vs. Sanchez
*cue HBO Sports theme*
Henne 12/20 90 yards 1 int
Sanchez 7/11 51 0 0 -
Henne ran for the 1st down. It was 4 yards to convert. Barely made it back to the LOS; but a penalty for illegal hands to the face converts.
Money.
