I just read a VG post from Hugo, rating the QBs, which prompted this thread.
My question is who is the best QB for this Dolphin team? You have to consider the age of the QB, the age of this team, and the fit with our surrounding players, as well as coaches. I am not talking about how great a QB is, just what he would be with our team.
For example, how many QB's would you trade Heene for right now?

Firstly, I would only consider "young" QB (28 or younger) which shortens the list of potential candidates considerably.
The first names that come to mind are Rivers, Roethlisberger, and Freeman.
That said, I still think that Henne can be equal to or greater than Roethlisberger and Freeman. I don't think he can reach the Marino-like production that Rivers brings to the table. -

I agree. There are not many QB's I would like to take for Henne, on this team. Other teams are a different story but, I could care less about them. Rivers would be one, Rogers another.

I have to believe you are talking about when the D is on the field, and Henne is resting. Otherwise, you are a funny guy. :pointlol:Colorado Dolfan, and MarinePhinFan like this.

I was trying to come up with a witty response, and then said Oh **** it, and cancelled my post out, then saw this... you summed up in 2 letters what I was taking 2 sentences to come up with.
Anyways, back on topic.
Someone like Roethlisberger would be good (minus the raping). He's like an upgraded version of Henne with his scrambling technique. Vince Young would probably be a great option too. In fact, I really think Vince young would probably be the most ideal person for this offense we're using right now.
I'm hoping we see the style of this offense change some though. Our Offensive line is dictating where the strength of our game needs to be. They're just not getting it done as consistently for the run as they are the pass. From what I understand and have seen we're playing max protect a lot so that does key into it, but I think if we took the training wheels off of Henne, and gave him more targets out there he'd be able to pick it up.
Anyways, point is I feel Henne is kind of chained down by the style of offense we're running. He's making strides towards the argument that this team can run off a pass first offense. -

I see you are currently in Venezuela. Your post must have suffered from a translation problem. :yes:

Rivers, Shaub, Rodgers
We've already salvaged the season! Duh. (Sorry, Marino's not on the bench).
Get it through your thick head- Henne has done NOTHING to cause us to lose any of our 3 games. He had tremendous games vs NY and Pitt who are the 1st and 2nd ranked defenses!!!! He beat GB, Cincy, Buffalo, and Minne in their own back yard.
There are 22 positions on this team!!....... 44 if you include special teams!! He doesn't play all of these!!! QB isn't the only position on the field. Duh. Please stop your baseless nonsense.

Pretty much the top 10 QBs in the league (Brady, Manning, Rivers, Brees, Schaub, Rodgers, etc).
And I'm not knocking Henne when I say that (or at least not trying to).
Very nice run down, and agreed. If ya look at our team, and what Henne has done in 20 games, there are not really many who are a better fit. JMO

Well, wouldn't go that far. IMO, Schaub and Matt Ryan are a little more mature than Henne, but not more talented. Schaub's numbers from his first 16 games probably aren't much better than Henne.

Anyone who would rather see Thigpen or Pennington in their as the starter has to be out of their mind. Pointless to start Pennington cause he isn't the future. Thigpen is a quality #2 in case but doesn't give you nearly the upside of Henne. Chad Henne gives us the best chance to win and is developing as we speak. It's a win/win and a no brainer.
