Chad Henne - Tom Brady Comparison

[Fins1971]

Very interesting history

Both Henne and Brady starred at Michigan in college

Both sat their 1st season behind veteran QB's (Bledsoe/Pennington) and learned how to prepare for the NFL.

Both were thrust into action when the starting QB went down early in their second season.

Both were unable to win that game coming off the bench.

Both faced early 0-2 and 0-3 records

Both rebounded and won their 1st career start with tremendous team effort helping them.

We all remember what happened to Brady in that 2nd season. He kept getting better as the season continued as did the Patriots team. They were 3-4 and went on to win the Super Bowl

Here are his updated stats as they compare to Tom Brady at the same point in their careers.

Chad Henne
81 of 136 (59.6%) for 838 yards 4 TD's and 3 Ints QBR 78.0
3 and 1 as a starter

Tom Brady
80 of 134 (59.7%) for 870 tards 5 TD's and 0 Ints QBR 91.3
3 and 1 as a starter

Pretty darn close except for the (3) pick sixes by Henne
Luckily he didn't throw any yesterday.

The prophecy continues....
History will repeat itself

Be worried Patriot fans, we finally found a QB

yeah chad henne is a hof qb already. lol. and i thought jets fans were delusional.

i really hope chad is the real deal i am still not sure he is the qb we have been waiting for but I really hope we win this next game.

 

[The Furminister]

I still feel its a little early to be comparing the two, as much as I hope that he has a Tom Brady like career.

 

[Howard Stern]

Unfortunately, I have to go with jetsattack on this one. To compare anyone but Drew Brees or Peyton Manning to Tom Brady is stupid. Henne can become a great QB, but after all the overthrows on Sunday, Im not ready to crown him anything just yet.

Dont. Just dont.

Yes he should be on the ballot that the Jets fans have Sanchez penciled in on!

Hate to admit it, but you're right. At this point Chad's almost as far away as The weiner-loving taco in being legitmately anointed a "franchise qb."

Dont. Just dont.

Absolutely - this is a stupid isea - and BTW - the dolphins aren't the only to team to have ever gone to the SB with an average QB like Woodley..., and a dominant D...

Not saying that Henne is average because he has ice in his veins a rifle arm and good wits about him..., but he hasn't done squat...

Thankfully we are on schedule to have a dominant D..., by the time Henne is seasoned...

you are? looks to me like your defense is pretty terrible.

not racism! A comment on alternate lifestyles (not that there's anything wrong with that). When you reach puberty, have your daddy explain the difference between a frank and a taco.

Someone needs a hug.... :aww:

YO can you READ...? Schedule - big word for you..., eh...?

Someone is upset that our cheerleader ran back two scores - thanks Mike Westhoff -



Have another go at it -

get over it. When you've played 4 games and you're in NFL commercials for hispanic heritage month and you don't even speak spanish, he opened the door for criticism.

As far as racism, it's the douchebags that run around screaming racism at ever little joke that make me sick. I have a cuban guy that I work with, I call him Julio, I don't even know what his first name actually is...it's a joke and he knows it.
