Dan Marino said on his weekly show this morning that the offense will get better as Henne gains experience and the receiver position improves.
"It's just a matter of him getting experience, and it's also they've got some guys that are working hard and playing hard at receiver, and as the whole offense gets better over time as far as talent-wise goes . . . you look around the league and see other teams, they've got a few guys that are more big playmakers," said Marino, who is confident Henne will show a steady progression.

"Henne will get better and better," Marino said. "He forced the interception to Ricky Williams in the endzone. But everybody forces throws. I did for years. But I've been impressed with him and his mental toughness, especially coming back after throwing interceptions.

"Quite honestly, they've got a young quarterback in Henne that slings it around. At the same time, his aggressiveness and how he throws the ball . . . sometimes he throws it a little hard and sometimes he takes some chances. That's what put him in the hole against Tennessee. But that same style got them back to give his team a chance to win the game."

This defense needs a Safety and a new scheme....Crowder and Ayodele are nothing special, but definately not as bad as our recieving corps is a hinderance to the offense.
 
I have a bad feeling that playmakers on offense are a low priority as long as the Tuna is in charge
 
I don't. Mr.Ross wants a playmaking wr and last I checked he
s the one writing the paychecks. This front office isn't dumb. We will get a wr. Trust the tuna.
 
Sounds like a young Bret Favre. Let's just hope he gets those int's under control and doesn't challenge Favre in that category.
 
Yeah the Defense has some holes. ILB, Safety, OLB, and NT positions need to be filled,but they can fill those through the draft.

Dan is right on though. With a true #1 receiver and a big time Tight End this offense could be very good. I think Hartline will only get better and will be a great #2. Bess is a very good #3 and Camarillo is a solid #4. If it comes down to keeping Ginn or Camarillo I think Camarillo has the edge.Only thing Ginn has going in his favor is he's still always a threat to break one as a returner. However Ginn will be making a lot more money than Greg

Sorry Cam is the one gone
 
I wish Dan the Man would coach Henne privately. I just hope Henne gets the INTs under control. I think Henne wanted the "home run" in OT instead of just methodically driving down the field like he has many times before.
 
Everyone forgets the Ernest Wilford signing because he didn't pan out. It did show they saw a need for a big receiver and went after one. If they find a guy that fits their profile, they will make the move.

I think they will add to the receiver mix but plan on Henne improving with continuity with the existing core of receivers ( Camarillo, Bess, Hartline). We need big plays in the passing game though, we can't have the offense forced to make those 14-17 play drives all the time. A tight end that could threaten the middle would really help open up some things for Henne as well.

Aaaaand why?

Ginn has NO use here. Ok, he had a good game against the Jets on kickoffs. What has he done since then? What has he done all season?

One long catch, 2 kickoff return TD's, those are the only plays he's made this season.

Meanwhile, Camarillo is converting moving chain after chain and making tough catches consistently.
 
Camarillo is not going anywhere, Sparano loves the guy. Who doesn't, he is your classic blue collar move the chains guy. Ginn is the anti-clutch receiver and a soft player on a hard nosed team. He can't be depended on for anything. He is not one of their guys and makes too much money to be just a kick returner. Ginn will be traded in the offseason or released. Ginn will not be on the opening day roster next season.
