OK so now we have a Pro Style Offense, an offensive vertical minded HC, & kept Nolan.

    Who do we get at QB?

    With Luck staying that means the 7 teams possible for a first round QB out of 4 options at QB will not only have 3 to choose from.

    We don't have the tools to trade up, so do we look at FA? If so, who?

    Also, does Harbaugh (A Michigan guy) think he can make Henne (A Michigan guy) a vertical QB?

    Lets wait until we have some official words on hiring and firings first. I am hearing reports out here that Harbaugh also met with Stanford officials to find out their final offer as well. Still a longshot he goes back there, but this is new news.

    Bring in competition and give Henne, Thiggy, and TBD a chance to win the starting job.

    If Harbaugh a former NFL QB wants to keep Henne for some reason why would YOU question that?

    Henne was a vertical QB in college. Something happened to that in Miami...

    If we can't get Luck or someone else good in the first round, I say we try to get the best vet FA we can find and give Harbaugh a shot to improve Henne.

    I wish Harbaugh stops bouncing around like a little girl and decide with teams he wants to coach, all this Sabanesque drama is getting disgusting.

    Henne is toast! I could Harbaugh taking a shot on Alex Smith. Now before every1 flies off the deep end remember smith has has 5 different OCs and offenses in his short career, not to mention that nut job Singletary! Smith is young, smart, great arm and athletic.

    Harbaugh earned $90,910 per win this season. Stanford can't pay him anything close to the level that would make him pass this kind of cash up.

    Draft an olineman in the first round and then somehow get a Leon Washington type player. After that either draft a qb in the third or pick one up in fa

    Dolphins 2010 Offense/coaches was only 1 of many issues with Henne that no one but henne can fix. Staring down the receiver, accuracy, decision making, reading defenses, inability to multitask (ie blitz coming he's forced out the pocket the basterd new looks down field)

    If it's Harbaugh as coach of course he'll keep Henne.
    He's still young and once Harbaugh reviews tapes of our game plans he'll see the challenge Henne has had to make advancements in his game.
    Who ever comes in, Henne will be kept and some sort of competition will be brought in for him to compete against in an open QB job battle.

    I have been a little bit critical of the hire from an experience angle but Harbaugh will allow us to best utilize a young QB on the roster. If Henne doesn't develop with Harbaugh then I will be ready to cave on the player.

    If you can show me a person that said Henne is unequivocally good...then yes...them too. I have yet to see anyone here say that though.

    However, I was talking about the people saying that they know for sure that Henne sucks. ;)

    I hope he can turn around henne because I saw no improvement from him this year.But in saying that I see no upgrades in the draft after my far fetched dream of somehow picking andrew luck has been shattered.The free agent pool is nothing to write home about either.I have been very critical of henne but I will gladly eat crow if this ****er can make him a legit nfl starter.

    Going back to see what Stanford can match seems like a smokescreen to me so that the Phins can fire Sparano, interview a minority and satisfy the Rooney rule.

    I definitely saw Henne improve slightly but it was probably hard to notice because I also saw our oline and running game regress

    If Harbaugh comes in and turns Henne into a starting QB will those who have claimed "Henne sucks" eat crow?

    well starting qb is a subjective term. i dont hate Henne, just have seen enough to convince myself he isnt the long term answer. same flaws in his game now that he had in College.

    If he comes in next season, throws for 3800+ yards, 60+% comp, 25 TD's and 10 INT's. Pluse the Dolphins make and win a playoff game.

    Crow or not?

    Serious question. How do you think an "average" NFL QB would've performed in Henne's shoes this season? How would the O have looked if we had Kerry Collins, Garrard, Sanchez, McNabb, Hasselbeck or average QB of your choice, under center?

    Honestly we do not know if those kinks were ironable or not. To say so either way is wrong on both sides.

    We will find out next year how much was the double d's and how much was Henne.

    The fact that Thigpen, who isn't much better, is a FA and we will probably be stuck with Henne. Especially since it is now tougher for us to draft a QB in the first round with Luck making it one less in the field for someone to drop to us.

    Much, much better. Especially with a quarterback who has a better pocket presense. Hasslebeck, Collins and Garrad especially.

    I think every QB you mentioned would have improved Miami's offense 10 spots other than Sanchez.

    please, lets not go there. its over, Henne will be traded or used as a backup. we need the franchise QB & now we have the coach that can get that job done. my best guess is we go up in the draft snatching the best first round available, or we go after Carson Palmer in free-agency

    If we land Harbaugh, I hope we bring back Penny as a QB coach. That would be two great QB mentors to work with whoever we have under center. Nevermind we can still bring in a good OC.
