Miami - Pro Football Weekly
The Dolphins didn’t really expect Chad Pennington to play this well. Hopeful, certainly, but optimism rarely manifests into reality so fortuitously. When Miami signed Pennington upon his release from the Jets, it inked him to a two-year deal teeming with incentives it figured he’d be hard-pressed to meet. Furthermore, there was more than a fleeting notion that he wouldn’t be around to see the second half of the agreement. The thought process was this: Let Pennington assume the offensive reins, give the team in transition some veteran stability as rookie Chad Henne learns the ropes, and turn the offense over to Henne toward the end of the season.

Without a doubt, has to go down as one of the top off-season aquisitions for any team this year.
The fact that he cost us NOTHING and brings so much obviously makes it more impressive. -
Don't overlook the speculation about Henning sticking around as well. That's almost as exciting.

Just let that role around again: HE COST US NOTHING. We got him from our biggest and most hated rival...AND HE COST US NOTHING!
Frankly, I can't get over that.padre31, mullingan, azfinfanmang and 1 other person like this. -

My expectations were different. CP has exceeded my expectations. I thought he would have about an 85 QBR and would be our QB for two seasons. I didn't expect to see Henne or Beck unless CP was injured. I was worried about his injury history.

how do you guys find Henning coming back exciting? is my sarcasm meter broken? I would prefer henning hand over the reins over to someone younger. henning does deserve credit for our success but at times, its dull and he likes to be very cute with the play calling.

Henning is ok, doesn't inspire me too much but if we can keep the youngsters under him to groom as future OC then maybe I can live with it.fins4o8 likes this. -
This team still lacks Offensive talent, can;t blame Henning for being dull at times...
Are we winning UGLY??? Its not in my vocabulary...WE ARE WINNING!!!
Seriously, we need to shore up our OL and get some top tier talent at WR... and we are set Offensively...Themole likes this. -
Letting Chad go was a big mistake. I think if Chad had played behind this Jets O-line we would have clinched the division already...taking into account Miami would not have him and Brady was still out...

Chad Pennington > Brett Favre.
:wink2: -
To be honest, I'm really surprised we simply have not lined up in the "I" and handed the ball off 500 times this season.. -

I can't wait to see Marcus Trufant pick off Favre 4 times on sunday, while Pennington completes 90% of his throws with no turnovers.
