Nice to read something with a pretty positive spin around this team for once. Nice find. I really hope this new offense is just what the doctor ordered for Henne and the phins. I think it can be, and if it is we could have a really nice year.

I would love to see a sign of unity where all the players join Reggie after practice..and continue the gesture of working on their own just like they did during the lockout.

One thing I hope to see, is Henne, Marshall, Bess, Hartline, Bush etc.....out on the field at 10-11 am on sundays before the game, going over timing routes, chemistry, get a feel for the weather, etc etc (like peyton did with harrison and wayne)

I can't even begin to express the tremendous amount of respect I have for Reggie Bush since he has been here.
Great work ethic and he has reached out as a team player.
He along with a new scheme might just be the keys to turning this offense around and getting Henne back on the track of respectability with the fans.MarinePhinFan and SICK like this. -
Great article. This offense will definitely be better than last year's. Definitely.
For the people who sometimes say any ball Henne gets near a receiver is a 'good ball', I think this could help change your mind about just how important precise ball placement is: "... Bush and Henne came walking out behind them. Those two stayed behind the rest of the class for extra-credit work, throwing route after route.
'One inch this way or the other could be the difference between 10 yards,' Bush said."
This is what Henne can still improve at. He placed the ball well on Marshall's slant the other night and had big YAC as a result. Hopefully his placement keeps improving.
It's great to see Reggie helping to emphasize with Henne all the things he is used to expecting from Drew Brees.
Reggie Bush, assistant QB coach. Lol. -

For all the bashing Henne has taken regarding his placement of the ball, deservedly so imo, it was beautiful to see some "perfect" lead passes against Carolina. Glad to see they are putting in the work to make it happen again and again and again and again...Those were the kind of passes that can turn 5 yard slants or screen passes into TDs.

Anyhow, things like what are in this article are the things this team has been missing for over a decade. The way Bush and Marshall act towards Henne will be a great influence on how the rest of the team treat/respond to him. -
Its impossible to hit a receiver in the hands. because they are on a swivel...the ball could be 6 inches off the ground and the receiver could get his hands on it and yet he hit the receiver in the hands? Its not possible to hit a receiver in the hands, now the receiver getting his hands on it, is a different story. You can't rate a throw on where a receiver gets his hands on it. -
Hitting a receiver in the hands just means that the ball was put in a spot that a receiver can "get his hands on it" without much extra effort, in my opinion.MarinePhinFan, GMJohnson and SICK like this. -
Grind it out, play ball control and use the clock is as outdated a style of football as you can find. Yet the Dolphins held on to that under Henning, who did have success with that style in the 1980s. It was former team president Bill Parcells who urged Sparano to hire Henning. The link: Parcells and Henning are good friends who worked together on the same staff at Florida State in the 1970s.
Indications are that Sparano wanted to hire Chris Palmer, whom he played under at the University of New Haven, but Henning was pushed onto his staff. Palmer is now the offensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans, and is considered a top quarterback coach. -
