about the stable:
1) Pennington may have a quiet demeanor
& there is little spoken on his behalf
(mostly not to take away from Henne or create controversy)
but Chad the Elder is never a moot point
if he's healthy enough to throw the ball
Chad Pennington has another season left to play
& he will do so if Henne falls short
2) we have in Thigpen a young, healthy,
starting-quality QB w/ great promise
playing backup awaiting his chance to shine.
he has more experience than Henne & better mobility
his arm may not be as strong
but he is accurate in his passing, not restricted to the pocket
& can get it down field on the run
in his own head, he sees himself as "the Man" he could step up
having said this
3) I do not diminish Chad Henne in any way & am hoping
he exceeds potential, arriving as the heir-apparent to Marino
leading us to the SuperBowl that Dan fell short of winning
I believe the IceMan has both the potential & in 2010 the opportunity
for greatness. however, he has to do it & do it now
no more excuses, the offense is loaded & ready to play ball
4) we have, quite possibly, the best QB stable the NFL
5) I believe Pat White is misused as a conventional QB. he is a great prospect for the unconventional systems. his athleticism & versatility, knowledge of the game & ability to run harbor potential for a creative coaching cadre. unfortunately, I see nothing that would lead me to believe that he would be used in a multi-purpose role.
we will not go to a SuperBowl w/o the franchise-quality QB in play

Friend adamprez2003:
controversy is a bad thing.
competition is a good thing.
support & team work are important.
what we have is a quiet,
cooperative effort to move forward
Chad Henne must produce
he needs to start in pre-season
& open up the regular season impressively
if he is not up to par & the team not winning
he will be replaced by game four
contrary to popular belief
the game is all about winning
& no body has been ordained
we will contend in 2010
the ReConstruction is complete
now we play for the BigEnchiladadolfan7171 and adamprez2003 like this. -

We will succeed this year. I could just feel it.

we will succeed if the IceMan steps up
he's got to get it right from game one.
the real question is not can he do it but will he do it.
if he does not start strong he will be replaced by game four.
Pennington is a Proven commodity
& Thigpen awaits he's chance in great anticipation.
this is not the year to not get it right @ QB.
by the way: too much made over Pennington's injury.
by game four he'll be back in the saddle.
he's probably good enough to play tomorrow.
much of what is bantered around is for the benefit
of avoiding controversy to maintain stability in the stable
Chad the Elder is firmly in Henne's corner
but would step up in a heart beat if needed.
we need the Franchise QB to make a SuperBowl run -
Henne has the real potential to be the franchise quarterback here. But Steve Ross is crazy to say that he'll be better than Dan the Man.

question:
what is important a Marino Super-QB
or a team w/a solid Franchise QB
& a team he can take to & win @ the SuperBowl?
it is what it is... :yes:
we don't need another Marino. we need a Franchise QB that can lead us to a victory in the SuperBowl.
