I just wanted to enlighten some people on this forum that seem to think that its the right decision to put in Henne in now.

Henne isn't as ready as people may think and that can all be seen in that last drive. How can you tell? Well, for starters he stared down his recievers. The O-line did a good job that series of managing to keep him upright but the problem is he won't recieve that sort of time to wait for the recievers to get open. Opposing defenses will blitz him like theres no tommorrow. Now do you really think that Henne is really ready to face that sort of pressure because he really didn't seem to face any today in that drive the way the defense played it.

Add that with the fact that he stared down the recievers letting everyone know where the football is going and that spells disaster.

Don't allow your emotions get to you. Let him learn a bit more before you send him off to the firing squad especially with no running game to speak of as of yet!
 
you're speaking my language. it's funny I notice many of the same people saying have patience are the ones calling for Henne. If people really want Henne to be our future they should want to get him into a better situation.

Sure, and when those blitzes come we throw screens and run draws to keep them honest. Face it, with Penne you get experience and face a brick wall with a feather to break through it or with Henne you get a rookie. BUT DAMN HE CAN LAUNCH THAT BALL DOWN FIELD AND OPEN UP THE RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!

AMEN
 
agreed, to me he is the best prospect we have had in awhile I dont want him in till he is ready
 
I am of the belief that one doesnt get better watching... One gets better playing...
 
I just watched the game again, and they blitzed him like crazy. In fact, Henne got him probably as many times as Pennington did and they got him on some clean shots from his blind side. I was very impressed that he was moving the ball because that defense has a lot of pride and they didn't want to give up a TD today let alone to a rookie.
 
Let him sit, aside from mopups for half the season, as painful as that may be. Audition him the 2nd half to decide whether he's the real deal as compared to Matthew Stafford who we're likely to have a shot at. If he continues to look promising, giving him every benefit of the doubt considering what he's got to work with, then great, we've got our future leader; if there are doubts, draft Stafford and either package Henne in a trade or let them duke it out in the 09 preseason.
 
henne starts after the bye for three reasons..

1] his drop is incredible which helps our offense has a whole

2} his release is infinitely quicker then penningtons which helps our offense as a whole,

3} his velocity, the time it takes to leave his hand to get to the receivers hand is ridiculously better then penningtons which helps our offense as a whole.

Add those three things with guts and moxie and you have yourself a new starter after the bye...all based on football equations and whats best for this teams future. no disrespect for pennington.

For those of you who want to protect his mental health i can respect that but i am willing to live with rookie mistakes and interceptions for the advantages he brings to our offense and our future evolvement as a football team
 
well practice is nice but theres no substitute for playing time. He cant play because hes inexperienced but he cant get any experience if he doesnt play screw it start henne this week.
