BAMAPHIN 22

The acquisition of Pennington, 32, tells us several things as the Dolphins prepare to open their preseason schedule this evening at home vs. Tampa Bay.
It tells us for certain that Josh McCown, the veteran journeyman signed this offseason to serve as a stopgap starter in case the kids weren't ready, failed. Wasn't good enough. He's gone. Dead man passing.
It verifies that rookie Chad Henne -- still your best bet in the quarterback of the future sweepstakes -- isn't ready in 2008, needing a year unrushed, time to learn, a season to marinate.
